Background: Orthohantaviruses (also known as hantaviruses) are pathogens, primarily transmitted by rodents, that can cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). In endemic regions of Kazakhstan, no confirmed HFRS cases were detected between 2020 and 2022 raising concerns about detection. Estimate antibody seroprevalence for hantaviruses and identify associated risk factors among high-risk adults in western Kazakhstan in 2023.

Unlabelled: Temperature-dependent DEER effects are observed as a function of methyl rotation by either leucine- or nitroxide-specific protonated methyl groups in an otherwise deuterated background. Both species induce a site-specific enhancement in the apparent relaxation of the paramagnetic nitroxide label. The presence of a single protonated methyl group in close proximity (4-10 Å) to only one of the two nitroxide rotamer ensembles in AviTagged immunoglobulin-binding B domain of protein A results in a selective and substantial decrease in , manifested by differential decay of the peak intensities in the bimodal distance distribution as a function of the total dipolar evolution time, temperature, or both.

Background: Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a promising non-invasive biomarker for detecting graft injury in solid organ transplant recipients. Elevated dd-cfDNA levels are strongly associated with rejection and graft injury, especially antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). While donor-specific antibodies (dnDSA) are crucial in ABMR, the relationship between dd-cfDNA levels and dnDSA features, such as DSA category, MFI and HLA target loci, remains unclear.

Background: Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by severe infection. The efficacy of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) as adjunctive therapy on mortality remains controversial. Moreover, IVIG may favorably affect sepsis-induced immunosuppression like persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PICS).

Introduction: Brucellosis, a significant zoonotic infectious disease, poses a global health threat. Accurate and efficient diagnosis is crucial for prevention, control, and treatment of brucellosis. VirB proteins, components of the Type IV secretion system (T4SS) in , play a pivotal role in bacterial virulence and pathogenesis but have been understudied for their diagnostic potential.
