Herpes simplex keratitis (HSK), an ocular disease resulted from herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection, leads to the majority of infectious corneal blindness worldwide. The apoptosis of corneal epithelial cells (CECs) resulted from HSV-1 disrupts the epithelial barrier and exacerbates the infection; however, there is no definitive cure for HSK. Jagged1 (JAG1), one of the primary functional ligands for NOTCH receptors, plays a crucial role in regulating apoptosis and autophagy; however, its role in HSK is unclear.

Amidst worldwide reports of adverse oral lesions subsequent to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination, the current systematic review planned to determine the prevalence of adverse oral events in adult individuals (≥18 years) after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, emphasizing upon the type and dose of vaccine, time of onset, and underlying pathophysiology. The registered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42023421307), conforming with PRISMA guidelines, included an all-inclusive literature search through online databases, consisting of Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Lilacs, Livivo, and PROSPERO, completed on 2 May 2023, followed by assessment of risk of bias by Joana Briggs Institute Evaluation Checklist. Due to the paucity of literature, case reports and case series were included.

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of the Preserflo MicroShunt (PMS) in treating glaucoma secondary to different uveitic glaucoma (UG) types in a European population.
Methods: This study evaluated consecutive eyes with UG that received the PMS. The primary outcome measure was 12-month surgical success (≥20% IOP reduction, target IOP of 6-21 mmHg).

Coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) is a primary pathogen associated with hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) and is typified by fever, rashes or herpetic lesions at distinct locations. Although HFMD patients exhibit mild symptoms, a subset of patients may develop severe complications, such as viral encephalitis, myocarditis, pneumonia, and neurological disorders. However, in addition to rodent models, such as the CVA6-infected mouse model, no definitive nonhuman primate animal model or related research or analysis tool is available, which makes the development of suitable nonhuman primate animal models particularly crucial.
