We present a 22-week fetus with isolated absent aortic valve and inverse circular shunt. The pregnancy was interrupted. Here, echocardiography and pathology images demonstrate this rare entity. Whole genome sequencing revealed a potentially disease-causing variant in the gene. Whole genome sequencing should be considered in severe and rare fetal diseases. ().

Multidrug-resistant is a major concern in healthcare institutions worldwide. Several reports described the dissemination of high-risk clones that are responsible for a high number of difficult-to-treat infections. In our study, 19 multidrug-resistant strains from Budapest, Hungary, were investigated based on whole-genome sequencing (WGS).

Although the etiological relevance of the detection of microsporidia in human stool samples remains uncertain, the immunological status of patients has been posited as an important determinant of potential clinical impact of these parasites. To further assess the interplay between the epidemiology of microsporidia and immunological markers, we conducted a study utilizing real-time PCR targeting , , , and , combined in a single fluorescence channel. The study involved a cohort of 595 clinically and immunologically well-characterized Ghanaian HIV patients, alongside 82 HIV-negative control individuals from Ghana.

Synergistic influence of extrusion conditions and whey protein isolate (WPI) incorporation on glycemic response and physicochemical characteristics of rice starch was studied. Box-Behnken Design was used to evaluate effect of process variables (rice starch:WPI ratio; feed moisture and barrel temperature) on quality characteristics of resistant starch-rich, low GI extruded snacks (RSLG-E). Optimum conditions for development of RSLG-E were WPI:18.
