Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) delivers its genome into the host nucleus via docking of the viral capsid at the nuclear pore complex (NPC), a process mediated by the capsid vertex-specific complex (CVSC), composed of UL17, UL25, and UL36. While prior in vivo studies have implicated UL25 and UL36 in NPC interactions, their interpretation is complicated by indirect effects from viral traffickin

Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) represents a severe spectrum of congenital cardiac malformations, which lead to systemic blood supply being dependent on patency of the arterial duct after birth. Antenatal diagnosis, advances in postnatal care and modifications of surgical palliation strategies have led to improved outcomes with the majority of patients born in the current era being expected

Early diagnosis enables postnatal stabilisation and may improve outcomes, especially in critical CHD, in which the circulation is dependent on patency of the arterial duct. Detection of CHD in newborns remains incomplete and current screening programs do not aim t

This article compares India’s recently adopted child protection policy, Mission Vatsalya (2022), with its predecessor, the Integrated Child Protection Scheme (2009, 2014). The comparative analysis finds that many parts of Mission Vatsalya are ‘old wine in new bottles’, suggesting that adopting a new scheme was in large part a rebranding exercise. Some concerning changes, however, are visible: a di
