Background: Non-malarial febrile illnesses (NMFI) pose significant challenges in HIV-infected children, often leading to severe complications and increased morbidity. While traditional diagnostic approaches focus on specific pathogens, shotgun metagenomic sequencing offers a comprehensive tool to explore the microbial landscape underlying NMFI in this vulnerable population ensuring effective management.
Methods: In this study, we employed shotgun metagenomics to analyse stool samples from HIV-infected children at the Baylor Children's Clinic Uganda presenting with non-malarial febrile illness.

Background and objective Intestinal parasitic infections are a major public health concern, especially in low-income regions with poor sanitation. Our hospital caters to a large migrant population, but data on these infections in Portugal is limited. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and characteristics of intestinal parasitic infections in pediatric patients from epidemiological, clinical, and microbiological perspectives.

Although , and some species are frequently involved in neonatal calf diarrhoea (NCD), detailed studies on their interactions are scarce. Therefore, a cross-sectional study including faecal samples from 404 diarrhoeic calves aged 0-30 days was performed. oocysts and cysts were detected by immunofluorescence antibody test and positive samples were molecularly characterized.

Article Synopsis
- Cryptosporidium and Giardia are common protozoan parasites affecting the digestive systems of various animals, leading to economic losses in animal breeding and posing public health risks.
- Recent studies identified numerous genotypes of these pathogens, prompting research into their prevalence in water buffaloes in Türkiye, where previous research was limited.
- The study found Cryptosporidium spp. in 3.92% and Giardia duodenalis in 0.98% of water buffalo stool samples, with C. ryanae being the most prevalent species, showing high genetic similarity among samples.
