Wildlife culling as a biophobic response to zoonotic disease risk: why we need a one health approach to risk communication by C. Jane Anderson, Jamie K. Reaser, Jamie K. Reaser

“…In worst case scenarios, biophobia of zoonotic hosts can result in humans culling wildlife populations or destroying their habitat. To better understand how public health messaging can responsibly provide necessary information on zoonoses risks while also promoting an affinity (biophilia) for potential zoonotic pathogen hosts, we conducted a literature review to identify cases of zoonoses-initiated wildlife culls and evaluated patterns and trends. …”

Exploring Core Genes Associated with Sepsis and Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Using Single-Cell Sequencing Technology by Shen Y, Leng L, Hu Y

“…The frequency of occurrence is on the rise, but there is a lack of certain indicators for the timely detection and recognition of illnesses.Methods: By virtue of scRNA-seq, this research has analyzed single-cell transcriptome data from samples taken from groups with septic death and systemic inflammatory response syndrome so as to identify the unique markers and patterns in immune response.Results: By revealing the status of twelve cell clusters of four major cell types in blood samples through UMAP cell clustering and the differences of major cell populations between the dead and SIRS patients, the results have elucidated the components of different cells and their marker genes in two disease states, and the response mechanism beneficial to disease diagnosis in blood samples.Conclusion: By establishing a theoretical framework centered on cellular and molecular regulation, the study has introduced a novel approach for diagnosing and treating sepsis death group and SIRS patients early, as well as differentiating and preventing these conditions.Keywords: sepsis, SIRS, single cell sequencing, biomarkers, single cell transcriptome…”
