ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Chikungunya may progress to a chronic phase marked by persistent pain and functional impairment, reducing the quality of life. Exercise‐based rehabilitation is essential, though comparisons between different modalities remain scarce. Exercises in an aquatic environment can be designed as a task‐oriented intervention that

Chikungunya Virus in Febrile Humans and Aedes aegypti Mosquitoes, Yucatan, Mexico
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) was isolated from 12 febrile humans in Yucatan, Mexico, in 2015. One patient was co-infected with dengue virus type 1. Two additional CHIKV isolates were obtained from Aedes aegypti mosquitoes collected in the homes of patients.

Advancing Antiviral Design: Integrating Natural Products, Computation and Targeted Delivery
A stepwise translational framework linking natural‐product discovery, computational prioritisation, experimental validation, lead optimisation and targeted delivery is proposed to advance antiviral design. ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic highlighted the role of rapid viral mutation and global connectivity in accelerating viral emergence and spread ...

Loss of TLR3 aggravates CHIKV replication and pathology due to an altered virus-specific neutralizing antibody response [PDF]
International audienceRNA-sensing toll-like receptors (TLRs) mediate innate immunity and regulate anti-viral response. We show here that TLR3 regulates host immunity and the loss of TLR3 aggravates pathology in Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection ...

Abstract Background In 2022, Canadian Blood Services implemented a gender‐neutral sexual behavior‐based screening (SBBS) approach to donor deferral, replacing time‐based criteria targeting gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) and female partners of gbMSM. We assessed the impact of this policy change on human immunodeficiency virus (
