Increased number of cases of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection imported from the Caribbean and Central America to northern Italy, 2014 [PDF]
SUMMARYThis report describes an increased number of cases of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection imported in northern Italy (Emilia-Romagna region) during the period May–September 2014, indicating that the recent spread of CHIKV and its establishment in the Caribbean and in central America, resulted in a high number of imported cases in Europe, thus ...

AbstractConcomitant circulation of dengue and chikungunya viruses has been sporadically reported and needs to be individually diagnosed. Several sensitive molecular diagnostics are currently deployed for the diagnosis of both DENV and CHIKV, it is very difficult to delineate the two viral infections based on symptomology, as both share similar clinical

Abstract Background Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tick‐borne pathogen that causes anaplasmosis. Increased incidences of this disease in Canada and cases of transfusion‐transmitted anaplasmosis in the United States have been reported. Currently, there are no Health Canada licensed methodologies available for detection of A.

Abstract Climate and environmental changes driven by global economic activities directly affect the physiology of insect vectors, such as Aedes spp., accelerating their development, increasing the number of generations per season and increasing the risk of transmission of aetiological agents. This study aimed to analyse how local climatic variables and

Design and Validation of Novel Chikungunya Virus Protease Inhibitors [PDF]
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV; genus Alphavirus) is the causative agent of chikungunya fever. CHIKV replication can be inhibited by some broad-spectrum antiviral compounds; in contrast, there is very little information about compounds specifically inhibiting ...
