Tsetse fly management and trypanosomiasis control strategies in Ethiopia

Masresha Yehualashet

Animal trypanosomiasis, caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Trypanosoma, is a major constraint to livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa, including Ethiopia. The disease, primarily transmitted by tsetse flies (Glossina spp.), leads to anemia, weight loss, reduced milk and meat production, infertility, and mortality in affected animals, causing significant socio-economic losses.

Natalia Frattini , Lucía Pronsato , Andrea Vasconsuelo , Lorena Milanesi

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a type of soft tissue sarcoma, which commonly appears in the head, neck, genitourinary region and extremities. RMS is believed to originate due to alterations in the growth and activity of immature precursor muscle cells, preventing their differentiation into skeletal muscle cells and thus acquiring malignant potential.

Mastitis is an inflammatory disease of the bovine mammary gland caused by bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infections, with pathogens primarily entering through the teat canal. Once established, they proliferate and evade host immunity, triggering complex immunological cascades mediated by bacterial toxins, proteins, and immunomodulators, which can result in increased somatic cell counts, vascular permeability, fibrosis, and systemic toxemia in severe cases.

Reimagining psychiatric classification in the age of Big Data

Sam Goldstein

Mental health diagnosis is undergoing a quiet but decisive transformation, one that reflects both the strengths and the limits of the systems that have guided psychiatry for more than half a century. For decades, structured diagnostic manuals provided a shared language for clinicians, researchers, and institutions, allowing a field once marked by inconsistency to establish a degree of coherence and legitimacy.
