Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) tend to experience greater difficulties with social communication and sensory information processing. Of particular interest in ASD biomarker research is the study of visual attention, effectively quantified in eye tracking (ET) experiments. Eye tracking offers a powerful, safe, and feasible platform for gaining insights into attentional processes by measuring moment-by-moment gaze patterns in response to stimuli.

Consider a Bayesian setup in which we observe , whose distribution depends on a parameter , that is, . The parameter is unknown and treated as random, and a prior distribution chosen from some parametric family , is to be placed on it. For the subjective Bayesian there is a single prior in the family which represents his or her beliefs about , but determination of this prior is very often extremely difficult.

Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMC) is a primary immunodeficiency condition caused by a genetic abnormality that increases the risk of recurrent and persistent skin, nail, and mucous membrane infections with Candida species, typically . Signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) gene mutation is a genetic trigger that causes CMC, which increases the risk of infections, multisystem disorders, and cancer susceptibility. We describe the first case of a Saudi female patient with clinical features of CMC with an underlying (STAT1) gene mutation.

Introduction: A key factor in influenza pandemic preparedness is the ability to detect zoonotic influenza virus strains as they emerge in humans through spillover events, ideally before human-to-human transmission occurs.

Design: In this study, the utility of the QIAstat-Dx syndromic device for influenza surveillance was evaluated. Bioinformatic analysis was performed on all WHO-recommended influenza Candidate Vaccine Viruses (CVVs), including the common strains recommended for the 2023-2024 influenza vaccine composition in the northern hemisphere, and 16 different H5 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) and two H9N2 low pathogenic avian influenza virus (LPAIV) strains.
