  Measures that could prevent the next viral pandemic - Discover Viruses

  The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has presented humanity with enormous challenges in terms of both medically managing the acute waves of infection and dealing with the sociopolitical consequences of the important measures taken to combat the viral threat. The division of societies into opposing factions—those who support the measures and those who doubt the viral causality of the observed disease progression—has had a profound impact on our social and political systems. Furthermore, the prevalence of postviral syndrome (long COVID-19) and postvaccination syndrome is increasing. Numerous viral mechanisms that have facilitated the exponential spread of infection are known from the study of other viral pathogens. For example, the cleavage of the spike glycoprotein (SGP) into S1 and S2 by transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPSSR2) markedly increases the affinity of the virus for the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, thereby significantly increasing infectivity. Similarly, the potential blockade of α7n-acetylcholine receptors (α7nARs) can significantly impair the body's primary anti-inflammatory mechanism, the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. The various mechanistic pathways of SARS-CoV-2 infection, such as SGP cleavage to accelerate viral entry and nonintrinsic high-affinity binding to acetylcholine receptors, are likely common to other viruses. Given the inevitability of the next viral pandemic, in addition to the continued advancement of antiviral vaccines, it is imperative to incorporate strategies to prevent future viral threats that target these mechanisms. This narrative review aims to search the literature for antiviral strategies that, in addition to the development of specific vaccines, may help to contain the rapid spread of infection chains. The proposed measures, such as the use of transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPSSR2) inhibitors, antiviral mouthwashes or high-affinity cholinergic ligands, have the potential not only to counteract the development of viral resistance to vaccines, but also to prevent and treat post-acute infection syndromes in the event of future viral pandemics.

  Mapping the presence of artificial intelligence in investment fund: a systematic review - Discover Artificial Intelligence

  Objective This study systematically reviews the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with investment funds in the asset management industry and emphasizes its transformative impact. Aiming to bridge knowledge gaps, this study explores AI's position within the industry, analyzes its variety, and assesses the transformational implications of existing practices. Methodology Adhering to systematic review methodology, a comprehensive search was conducted across the Web of Science and Scopus databases, identifying 27 high-quality studies published from 2020 to 2024. The study was then analyzed thematically. Findings The first theme of the review classifies AI applications into front-end and back-end roles, illustrating the transition from traditional processes. On the front-end, AI assists simple activities by analyzing an investor's profile to determine a suitable fund, similar to a human financial consultant. The back-end sees AI performing autonomous trading and managing pooled fund investments, resembling a human fund manager. As a secondary theme, this review analyse AI deployment include using robo-advisors and chatbots for front-end tasks, screening analysis, predictive analytics, automated algorithmic trading, and automated trading technical analysis for back-end tasks. This study also includes a deductive discussion on the implications and transofrmation of AI deployment. Contribution/implications This review serves as an analytical framework to highlight AI in investment funds in asset management and serves as a springboard for future research and industrial applications.
