    Epidemiological Study of The Microbial Causes of Diarrhea in Children in Najaf Governorate, Iraq

    By Elham Jawad Kadhum

    Abstract: The current study included a survey of the microbial causes of diarrhoea among children attending Al- Zahra Teaching Hospital for Maternity and Children in Najaf Governorate and Al-Furat Al-Awsat Hospital in Kufa District. 150 samples were collected, ranging in age from one day to seven years, over a three-month period, from 1/10/2024 to 30/12/2024. The direct swab and stool concentration method was used to examine the stool. The results showed …

    Genomic Characterization of Emerging Arboviruses in Rural India

    By Suraj Sen, Anit Jha, Priyanshu Upadhyay, Khusboo, Bushra Bano, Sweta Bharti

    Abstract: Arboviruses (arthropod-borne viruses) represent a rapidly evolving group of pathogens responsible for significant morbidity and mortality, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. Rural India, characterized by dense vector populations, changing ecological patterns, and limited healthcare infrastructure, has become a hotspot for the emergence and re-emergence of arboviral diseases such as dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, and more recently, Zika virus infections. Advances in genomic technologies, including next-generation sequencing (NGS), metagenomics, and …

    How Scientists Look for New Pathogens Before They Spread

    By V. Basil Hans

    Abstract: Emerging infectious illnesses are a persistent danger to global health. They often come from unexpected places, such wildlife reservoirs, changes in the climate, or human activities. Finding new diseases before they create epidemics is one of the biggest problems in modern epidemiology. This article talks about how scientists use genetic monitoring, field sampling, and real-time data processing to find, track, and describe new infectious organisms in a way that works …

    Quorum Sensing and Biofilm Dynamics in Pathogens: An Evolving Frontier in Infectious Disease

    By Kulsum Jamal

    Abstract: Bacterial and fungal pathogens rarely act as solitary invaders. Instead, they engage in sophisticated chemical communication known as quorum sensing (QS) to coordinate population-wide behaviours and construct structured, multicellular biofilm communities. These biofilms, composed of extracellular polymeric substances, not only facilitate microbial persistence on biotic and abiotic surfaces but also confer remarkable protection against host immune defenses and antimicrobial therapies. QS systems act as central regulators of biofilm dynamics, orchestrating …

    Advances In HIV Research: Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, And Emerging Therapeutic Strategies

    By Sudipta Mukherjee, Mrinmoy Ghosh, Rituparna Chatterjee

    Abstract: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) remains a critical global health concern, infecting millions of individuals each year. The introduction of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has markedly improved disease outcomes by suppressing viral replication, restoring immune function, and extending patient longevity. Despite these advances, the complete eradication of HIV is hindered by the persistence of viral reservoirs, the emergence of drug-resistant strains, and disparities in healthcare accessibility. This review summarizes key developments in …

    Shadows of Uncertainty: When Pneumonia Isn’t Pneumonia

    By Likith Ashok Gandhi, Pruthu Dhekane, Bharat Purandare, Prayag Parkishit, Rasika Joshi, Riddima Shah, Sarvesh Bhimavat

    Abstract: Pneumonia is a common medical condition encountered in hospitalized patients and remains a cause of morbidity worldwide. Identifying and initiating appropriate treatment in febrile patients who present with respiratory symptoms and radiographic infiltrates, reduce hospital stay, minimize complications, and lower healthcare costs. However, the assumption that every pulmonary infiltrate or opacity seen on a radiological imaging represents an infectious process such as pneumonia can lead to misdiagnosis, unnecessary investigations, prolonged …

    Understanding Airborne Pathogens: Pathways, Risks, and Control Strategies

    By Dr V. Basil Hans

    Abstract: Airborne transmission is the transfer of germs through the air, mostly by respiratory droplets and aerosols that come out when you cough, sneeze, talk, or breathe. These particles can stay in the air for a long time and move a long way, especially in small or poorly ventilated places. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, measles virus, varicella-zoster virus (chickenpox), influenza virus, and more recently, SARS-CoV-2 are all infections that can be spread through …

    A study on IoT and AI for Predictive Modeling and Control of Infectious Disease Transmission

    By Kazi Sultanabanu Sayyad Liyakat

    Abstract: Background: The global response to novel and recurring infectious diseases is frequently hindered by surveillance systems that are slow, siloed, and reactive. Traditional epidemiology relies on retrospective analysis of clinical reports, often missing the critical early phase of autocatalytic spread. The urgency of modern public health necessitates a shift toward real-time, predictive intelligence. Methods: This study investigates the development and deployment of a synergistic paradigm integrating the Internet of Things …
