To evaluate transmission dynamics, we exposed 25 bird species to West Nile virus (WNV) by infectious mosquito bite.We monitored viremia titers, clinical outcome, WNV shedding (cloacal and oral), seroconversion, virus persistence in organs, and susceptibility to oral and contact transmission.Passeriform and charadriiform birds were more reservoir co
Chagas disease (CD), a neglected tropical disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is an important public health problem mainly in Latin America, leading to approximately 12,000 annual deaths.Current etiological treatment for CD is limited to two nitro compounds, benznidazole (Bz) and nifurtimox (Nif), both presenting relevant li
A phenomenological study is carried out on a complex two-component diffusion-reacting system in gel, that is, the Cd-1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane (Cd-bpp) coordination polymer.The latter can exist in three solid forms, which exploit a 1:1 correspondence among the Cd/bpp ratio, the crystal structure redken shades eq 07m driftwood and the crystal morpho
Background: It is well documented that sub Saharan Africa bears the highest burden of both malaria and HIV.Co infection with both diseases is also well documented.Malaria parasites infecting the placenta lead to inflammation, intervillous fibrin deposition and infarction.This pathologic effect of malaria on the placental has led to the staging of p
The integration of deep learning in healthcare has propelled advancements in diagnostics and decision support.However, the inherent opacity of deep neural networks (DNNs) poses challenges to their acceptance and trust in clinical settings.This survey paper delves into the landscape of explainable deep learning techniques within the healthcare domai
