As a person who has had a long scientific career in Ukraine, both before and after its re-acquisition of independence thirty years ago, I would like to share my observations with the readership of this Special Issue. By no means are these observations meant to provide a systematic presentation, which requires a different format. Rather, they are highly personal notes, providing snippets of the past and present and a discussion of the future of Ukrainian science. They also allow me to acknowledge my wonderful colleagues and bright students. I am delighted to see that many of them have contributed excellent reviews and original manuscripts to this Special Issue. (I am also keenly aware of the fact that because of the brutal invasion and bombardments by our imperial neighbor, many of my colleagues have been unable to share their latest work). It will be up to this next generation of Ukrainian scientists to develop Biological Sciences in Ukraine in the future.

Pneumococcal infections are a serious health issue associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This systematic review evaluated the efficacy, effectiveness, immunogenicity, and safety of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV)15 compared to other pneumococcal vaccines or no vaccination in children and adults. We identified 20 randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

Sponges harbour complex microbiomes and as ancient metazoans and important ecosystem players are emerging as powerful models to understand the evolution and ecology of symbiotic interactions. Metagenomic studies have previously described the functional features of sponge symbionts, however, little is known about the metabolic interactions and processes that occur under different environmental conditions. To address this issue, we construct here constraint-based, genome-scale metabolic networks for the microbiome of the sponge Stylissa sp.

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a progressive cerebrovascular disorder that increases the risk of intracranial ischemia and hemorrhage. Timely diagnosis and intervention can significantly reduce the risk of new-onset stroke in patients with MMD. However, the current diagnostic methods are invasive and expensive, and non-invasive diagnosis using biomarkers of MMD is rarely reported.

It provides diagnostic and therapeutic advantages, enabling surgeons to evaluate and address diverse acute abdominal conditions using minimally invasive techniques. The aim of this consensus was to obtain evidence-based guidance for surgeons regarding the utilization of laparoscopy in emergency medical settings, and has been divided into trauma and non-trauma emergencies.

Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic, inflammatory dermatosis most commonly characterized by changes in skin pigmentation and pruritus, with associated dyspareunia and genital architectural changes. There are a variety of complications associated with LS, which further worsen a patient's health-related quality of life. A systematic review was conducted to summarize the literature regarding clinical features of LS, as well as LS-associated complications.
