For a long time neglected, the mpox virus has caused two public health emergency declarations by the World Health Organization in just two years. Rapid detection and characterization of the viral strains involved are crucial for better control of the disease. Recent work on viral genome sequencing in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has shown the emergence in 2023 of clade Ib, with sustained human-to-human transmission and rapid spread to several other non-endemic neighboring countries, as well as outside Africa.

Trachoma, caused by repeated ocular infection with Chlamydia trachomatis, remains a leading infectious cause of blindness globally, with significant implications for public health. The World Health Organization and partners aim to eliminate trachoma as a public health problem by 2030, targeting specific prevalence thresholds for trachomatous trichiasis (TT) and trachomatous inflammation-follicular (TF). Diagnosis is primarily clinical.

Background: Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections remain a public health problem in Uganda despite biannual national deworming campaigns implemented since the early 2000s. Recent surveys have indicated a heterogeneous STH infection prevalence, suggesting that the current blanket deworming strategy may no longer be cost-effective. This study identified infection predictors, estimated the geographic distribution of STH infection prevalence by species, and calculated deworming needs for school-age children (SAC).

Toxocariasis, a neglected zoonotic disease caused by parasites of the genus, represents a significant public health concern, with an estimated global seroprevalence of 19%. Despite the well-known respiratory symptoms associated with toxocariasis, the immune response in the lungs during toxocariasis is still poorly understood. This study analyzes both local lung and systemic immune response to infection and excretory-secretory antigens (TES) intranasal application in C57BL/6J mice.

With the increasing participation of women in sports, understanding gender differences in sports injuries has become crucial. This study compares the incidence of sports injuries in male and female athletes through a scope review, analyzes the gender specific patterns of common injury types, summarizes the current situation and challenges of sports injury prevention in female athletes, and proposes targeted clinical practice and research recommendations. This study adopted a scope review design, followed the PRISMA ScR guidelines, and registered with PROSPERO (CRD420251058146).
