Background: Lumpy skin disease (LSD), caused by infection with the lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), is a highly infectious disease that poses a notable challenge to the cattle industry worldwide. To conduct epidemiological monitoring of LSDV infection in cattle and evaluate the immune efficacy of LSDV vaccines, it is essential to develop a rapid, sensitive, and specific ELISA-based antibody detection method.
Results: We utilized the LSDV P32 protein, stably expressed in a CHO-K1 suspension cell system, as a coating antigen to develop an indirect ELISA for Capripoxvirus (CaPV) antibody detection. This method specifically recognizes CaPV-positive sera without cross-reactivity with sera positive for bovine viral diarrhea virus, bovine rotavirus, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus, and Brucella antibodies. The method demonstrated a maximum serum dilution detection capacity of 1:3200, with intra- and inter-assay variation coefficients below 10%. Comparison with a commercially available kit showed an agreement of 95.7%.
Conclusion: The indirect ELISA antibody detection method established exhibited excellent specificity, sensitivity, and reproducibility, providing a reliable tool for clinical detection and epidemiological surveys of LSDV. This method offers significant potential for the prevention and control of LSD outbreaks.

Background: Romosozumab is a sclerostin-inhibiting monoclonal antibody that is effective and safe for anabolic treatment in patients with osteoporosis. Its main adverse effects are local; the severity of these injection-site reactions in clinical trials was generally mild.
Case Report: We present a case of a 71-year-old Colombian woman with osteoporosis at very high risk of fractures with no relevant history of drug allergies.

Unlabelled: Encephalitis is a potentially life-threatening condition with infectious or autoimmune aetiologies. Autoimmune encephalitis includes paraneoplastic variants associated with specific onconeural antibodies such as anti-Hu, frequently linked to malignancies. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is the leading infectious cause in adults.

Introduction: Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA-R) encephalitis is a neuropsychiatric disorder with additional psychiatric features caused by NMDA-R immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This report presents the follow-up of a patient in whom we assumed mild NMDA-R encephalitis in the first psychotic episode.
Case Study: A patient with a prior episode of an acute polymorphic psychotic syndrome relapsed five and a half years later following a severe COVID-19 infection.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are both autoimmune diseases influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors, but rarely coexist. This case describes a 13-year-old girl with early onset of T1DM who was diagnosed with SLE 12 years later, highlighting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, particularly in distinguishing kidney involvement and management without exacerbating hyperglycemia. The patient presented with edema of the eyelids and lower limbs.

Formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that mediates chemotaxis and bactericidal activities in phagocytes. The monoclonal antibody 5F1 is generated against full-length FPR1 and used widely for detection of FPR1 expression. This study aimed to characterize 5F1 for its functions.
