Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) leader protein (L(pro)) is a papain-like proteinase, which plays an important role in FMDV pathogenesis. L(pro) exists as two forms, Lab and Lb, due to translation being initiated from two different start codons separated by 84 nucleotides. L(pro) self-cleaves from the nascent viral polyprotein precursor as the first mature viral protein. In addition to its r...

In ictal psychosis with complex visual hallucinations (VHs), widespread functional changes of cortical networks have been suggested. We describe the clinical and EEG findings of a patient with bipolar disorder who manifested complex VHs associated with intense emotional symptoms caused by frontal epileptic seizures. This description highlights the challenges of diagnosing the epileptic nature o...

UNLABELLED Acute HIV-1 infection is characterized by a type I interferon response, resulting in the induction of host restriction factors. HIV-1 has evolved to counteract these factors, and one such adaptation, the ability of Vpu to counteract BST2/tetherin, is associated with the evolution of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIVcpz) into pandemic group M human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-...

BACKGROUND Hallucinations are a core feature of psychosis, often causing considerable distress. Reported prevalence ranges from 70% for auditory hallucinations (AHs) to 30% for visual hallucinations (VHs) and 4% for hallucinations in the tactile domain. AHs have been studied extensively but studies on VHs are scarce. The current study investigated the phenomenology of VHs and AHs in the realm o...

Visual hallucinations (VHs) are among the most striking features of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Given that Lewy body pathology is frequently observed in the brains of patients with AD, we aimed to study factors associated with VHs in AD and examine their association with DLB features. This cross-sectional study enrolled a consecutive series of AD patients who visited the dementia clinic of...

The safety control and command system, such as the burner manage-ment requires that system must be reliable, available safe. reliability is based on choosing equipment, with a high level of which suitable for system. availability security are provided, among others, by redundancy. It presented M-Canal out N-Canal (MooN) architecture, (N-M) indicates how many dangerous faults possible, with-out ...
