A recent study conducted by Arkana Laboratories in Little Rock, Arkansas, has focused on the clinicopathologic features of Antibrush Border Disease (ABBA), an autoimmune tubulointerstitial kidney disease. The study found that ABBA primarily affects older individuals and leads to progressive kidney failure. The research identified 67 patients with ABBA who underwent kidney biopsy, revealing that the disease is predominantly found in males with a median age of 72 years. The majority of patients were treated with immunosuppression, and while the overall prognosis of ABBA is poor, there is potential benefit from this treatment. [Extracted from the article]

A recent study conducted by Ondokuz Mayis Universitesi in Samsun, Turkey, aimed to update current data on Border Disease (BDV) in sheep, goats, and cattle in Turkey. The study analyzed 100 sheep, 20 goats, and 193 cattle aborted fetuses for pestivirus and BDV using various tests. The results showed a high prevalence of pestivirus in all three species, with BDV-3 and BDV-7 genotypes detected in sheep and BVDV-1 genotype detected in cattle. The study suggests the need for new probes for BDV diagnosis and emphasizes the importance of confirming PCR test results with sequence analysis. [Extracted from the article]
