Molecular characterization and evolutionary analysis of a duck astrovirus type 3 strain

Poultry Science
Waterfowl astrovirus cause viral hepatitis, nephritis, and gout in ducklings and goslings, leading to growth retardation, reduced production performance, and poor feed conversion, and thereby pose a substantial threat to the waterfowl industry.

Recent Increase in Rotavirus Gastroenteritis After Five Years of Low Activity in Hokkaido Prefecture, Japan, Associated With Equine‐Like G3P[8] and G8P[8] Strains, 2025

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Rotavirus gastroenteritis decreased substantially worldwide during the COVID‐19 pandemic, and activity remained minimal in Hokkaido Prefecture, Japan, for 5 years after 2020. Hospital‐based surveillance in Hokkaido since July 2019 identified the first resurgence of rotavirus gastroenteritis in 2025.

Treosulfan–fludarabine conditioning in infants with severe combined immunodeficiencies: Extended study of the UK paediatric treosulfan study

British Journal of Haematology, Volume 208, Issue 5, Page 1713-1723, May 2026.
Summary Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative therapy for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Conditioning improves donor engraftment and freedom from immunoglobulin replacement (IgR) but increases the risks of acute and late toxicity. Treosulfan, a reduced toxicity alkylating agent, has emerged as an alternative

Beyond Rotavirus: Persistence of Norovirus, Adenovirus, and Astrovirus in Paediatric Gastroenteritis in the Republic of Congo After Vaccine Introduction

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the introduction of rotavirus vaccines, gastroenteritis remains a major cause of paediatric morbidity and mortality in the Republic of Congo. This study investigated the prevalence and genetic diversity of non‐rotavirus enteric viruses including norovirus (NoV), adenovirus (AdV), and astrovirus (AstV) ten years after the introduction ...

Astrovirus and norovirus infections and their association with diarrheal symptoms in immunocompromised children

Emerging Microbes and Infections
Human astroviruses are a common cause of viral gastroenteritis and are often underdiagnosed. While infections are typically mild or asymptomatic in immunocompetent hosts, astrovirus can cause prolonged and severe disease in immunocompromised individuals.
