Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a worldwide health concern that infects nearly 254 million people globally and causes more than 1 million deaths annually. The highest prevalence is seen in sub-Saharan Africa and the Western Pacific region. Cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are reported a...

C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) is the primary co-receptor mediating the entry of R5-tropic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) into CD4+ T cells and macrophages, making it one of the most promising therapeutic targets in HIV cure research. The naturally occurring CCR5Δ32 mutation which abolishes surface C...
Mangroves are increasingly recognised as important nature-based systems for reducing coastal flood risk, yet research on their hydrodynamic performance remains dispersed across coastal engineering, eco-hydrology, restoration science, and environmental management. This study synthesises recent advances in mangrove-media...
