The articles in this issue address a variety of contemporary healthcare topics, including infectious diseases, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, ophthalmology, radiological imaging, pathology, pharmacological interventions, microbiology, and preventive medicine. In addition to reporting original research findings, this issue includes comprehensive literature reviews and case-based discussions that synthesize current evidence and translate emerging scientific knowledge into clinical practice. The multidisciplinary scope reflects the growing integration of basic science, clinical medicine, and population health in addressing complex healthcare challenges. 

A key strength of this issue is the diversity of author affiliations and interdisciplinary collaboration.
