Abstract The resurgence of Mpox, formerly known as monkeypox, has emerged a critical public health concern, driven by the more transmissible and virulent clade Ib strain. outbreak, which escalated across Central West Africa, poses significant threats to global security, primarily due cross-border transmission inadequacies current responses. This commentary examined epidemiological trends, challenges, gaps in containment efforts, offering insights recommendations for effective response. Drawing on data from World Health Organization, this reviews patterns Mpox cases reported 19 African nations January November 2024. In addition, it evaluates responses, including challenges vaccine distribution, diagnostic capacity, healthcare system limitations, discusses broader implications preparedness. Despite emergency declarations mobilization resources, efforts remain constrained logistical barriers, limited availability, underdeveloped infrastructures. Furthermore, hesitancy, misinformation social stigma, continues undermine measures. outbreak highlights substantial preparedness inequities access essential interventions. emphasizes need globally coordinated equitable interventions close these gaps, strengthen surveillance, improve enhance Without urgent action, risk further escalation spread remains concern.

Mpox is a viral zoonotic disease that has seen resurgence in recent years, with outbreaks reaching beyond its traditional endemic zones Central and West Africa to parts of Europe North America. The relationship between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection mpox outcomes, particularly hospitalization rates, remains underexplored despite the known immunosuppressive effects HIV. This systematic review meta-analysis aimed clarify association HIV likelihood cases. A literature search was conducted through PubMed, Embase, Web Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library up until August 10, 2024. eligibility criteria focused on observational studies evaluated rates among cases, distinguishing HIV-positive HIV-negative individuals. Newcastle-Ottawa Scale used for evaluating study quality. random-effects model accommodate expected heterogeneity using R software (V. 4.4). yielded 686 records, 14 meeting inclusion exclusion after screenings full-text assessments. pooled analysis revealed 56.6% increased risk cases compared individuals (95% CI: 18.0–107.7%). Notable (I² = 76%) observed, likely reflecting variations settings methodologies. Sensitivity confirmed robustness these findings, no significant publication bias detected (Egger's test p-value 0.733). associated statistically There critical need integrated care enhanced surveillance, especially populations high prevalence. Our findings emphasize importance ongoing research better understand co-infection refine management strategies this vulnerable group.

Background Mpox emerged as a significant global public health concern during the 2022–2023 outbreak, impacting populations in both endemic and non-endemic countries. This study reviews synthesises evidence on risk factors associated with human transmission across these regions. Methods A systematic search of peer-reviewed original studies was conducted Scopus, Embase, Web Science PubMed databases, covering publications up to 31 March 2024. The review followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses. Two authors independently screened articles by title, abstract full text. Newcastle–Ottawa Scale used assess bias included articles. Fixed- or random-effects meta-analysis when at least two reported ORs relative risks, 95% CIs. Heterogeneity assessed using I2 statistic. registered PROSPERO (ID: CRD42023459895 ). Results identified 947 through database searches, which met our inclusion criteria. revealed infection. Interaction infected animals (OR=5.61, CI 2.83, 11.13), HIV infection (OR=4.46, 3.27, 6.08), other sexually transmitted infections (OR=1.76, 1.42, 2.19), unprotected sexual activities (OR=1.53, 1.13, 2.07), contact an person (OR=2.39, 1.87, 3.05), identification men who have sex (OR=2.18, 1.88, 2.51) having multiple partners (OR=1.61, 1.24, 2.09) were increased risk. Conversely, smallpox vaccination significantly reduced (OR=0.24, 0.11, 0.55).

To effectively address crisis emergence of new virus such as monkeypox, a collective and collaborative effort between scientists, engineers, innovators, artists from all ages, regions, diverse fields is required. This review explores holistic approach to addressing the monkeypox by integrating nanobiosensors, artificial intelligence, visual arts, humanities, social sciences. Traditional diagnostic methods are often limited time, accessibility, accuracy, but advancement point‐of‐care smart nanobiosensors offers promising shift toward rapid, precise, accessible diagnostics. They enhance ability screen, diagnose, monitor infections efficiently, contributing better disease management. Beyond technological innovation, essential role sciences in fostering public engagement, understanding, acceptance tools emphasized. Visual arts can illustrate scientific concepts, making them more relatable, while storytelling through various media reduce stigma promote preventive measures. Social provide insights into cultural attitudes, behaviors, health challenges, ensuring that solutions integrated communities. By combining these disciplines, this presents comprehensive framework for resilient global system aligns with One Health principles, emphasizing interconnectedness human, animal, environmental health.

Objective:To identify the transmission methods, symptoms, complications, prevention, and treatment associated with Mpox. Design:Literature review based on a narrative synthesis. Data Sources:Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scielo, ScienceDirect, Redalyc, Scopus. Study Selection:Documents were selected analyzed through critical literature review, considering inclusion exclusion criteria. Results:A was conducted corpus 17 articles, including 11 reviews, 2 systematic 4 statistical analyses. Mpox is more prevalent among children, adults, pregnant women, homosexual bisexual individuals. The regions highest outbreak incidence are Asia, South America, Europe, United States, especially West Central Africa, where it endemic. Clinical conditions include fever, skin rashes, abdominal pain, meningitis, strongly linked to HIV. Most reported cases have been lower-class individuals, some from middle class. Conclusions: virus transmitted various means, primarily contact, bodily fluids, sexual relations between men. It significantly affects children women presents range lesions being most frequent, followed by headaches, oral lesions, others. If left untreated or inadequately managed, can lead severe HIV-positive individuals immunocompromised patients at risk. Pneumonia be fatal in cases. Good personal hygiene recommended, although there no approved vaccines for Mpox, Tecovirimat Brincidofovir show potential approval case future outbreaks.
