Abalone viral ganglioneuritis (AVG), caused by Haliotid herpesvirus-1 (HaHV-1; previously called abalone herpesvirus), is a disease that has been responsible for extensive mortalities in wild and farmed abalone and has caused significant economic losses in Asia and Australia since outbreaks occurred in the early 2000s. Researchers from Taiwan, China, and Australia have conducted numerous studies encompassing HaHV-1 genome sequencing, development of molecular diagnostic tests, and evaluation of the susceptibility of various abalone species to AVG as well as studies of gene expression in abalone upon virus infection. This review presents a timeline of the most significant research findings on AVG and HaHV-1 as well as potential future research avenues to further understand this disease in order to develop better management strategies.

The article is devoted to the development of the methodology of rational management of the economics of environmental management. The importance of this study stems from the need to establish principles and strategies for sound economic management to promote economic development, sustainable resource use, reduce environmental problems and support human livelihoods. This article highlights the latest developments in the field of economic development management strategies for environmental management. Regulatory forecasts are proposed to rationalize management in accordance with the strategic goals and the achievement of established measures for the development of the environmental economy, which allows to ensure the country's competitiveness. Theoretical approaches and practical recommendations for the formation of the structure of rational management of the economy of natural resource use have been developed. The article reflects the current research results in the field of development of the methodology of rational management of the economics of environmental management. The features of environmental management are revealed and their assessment is proposed, where the functional purpose of rationalization, the purpose and the direction of the results are highlighted as classification signs. The practical experience of the level of achievement of planned values of indicators of environmental state subprograms in the Russian Federation is analyzed. The advantages of rational management of nature management economics are shown. The key elements of this article can be used as theories and strategies for justifying, selecting and implementing economic and economic projects, integrating environmental protection measures, mitigating environmental impacts, mitigating the effects of climate change and managing climate change. The conclusions drawn are based on an assessment of good or bad governance and technical judgment.

Dengue virus (DENV) and Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) are arboviruses that share the sameAedesmosquito vectors and thus overlap in their endemic areas. These two viruses also cause similar clinical presentations, especially in the initial stages of infection, with neither virus possessing any specific distinguishing clinical features. Because the outcomes and management strategies for these two viruses are vastly different, early and accurate diagnosis is imperative. Diagnosis is also important for surveillance, outbreak control, and research related to vaccine and drug development. Available diagnostic tests are aimed at detection of the virus, its antigenic components, or the host immune antibody response. In this review, we describe the recent progress and continued challenges related to the diagnosis of DENV and CHIKV infections.

In December 2019, an outbreak of viral pneumonia of unknown etiology arose in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. Eventually isolated and named Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), this virus has caused a global pandemic of the pneumonia-like Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). With global infection rates and deaths mounting, the medical community has been forced to recognize, test, and treat these patients within a rapidly evolving situation and a shortage of resources. In this article, we summarize the most recent data pertaining to the clinical presentation, diagnostic tests, imaging, and management strategies for COVID-19. This article concludes with a discussion of ongoing efforts to develop critically needed therapeutics and vaccines, which may subsequently shape our responses to future pandemics.

This practical coronary care manual has been edited by one of Australia’s leading cardiologists, with extensive contributions by national and international experts. The first edition was written twelve years ago and an update was urgently needed due to the rapid growth and evolvement of diagnostic tests, therapeutic interventions and management strategies in the intervening period.
