Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 18, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of hospital admission in adults over 65, leading to severe complications and death. However, the disease burden in primary care for older adults in Europe is poorly understood. This pilot study aims to test a study protocol for evaluating the clinical burden of RSV in older adults ...

Toxoplasma gondii Infection of BALB/c Mice Perturbs Host Neurochemistry

Parasite Immunology, Volume 46, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Toxoplasma gondii infection has been associated with psychoneurological disease in humans and behavioural changes in rodents. However, the mechanisms accounting for this have not been fully described and in some cases could be argued to reflect the severe neuropathology that some mice suffer during infection.

[Selected aspects of Chlamydophila pneumoniae infections].

Postepy higieny i medycyny doswiadczalnej (Online), 2015
Chlamydophila pneumoniae was taxonomically separated from strain TWAR - an abbreviation of the strain isolated from humans TW-183 (material from the eye of a child in Taiwan in 1965) and AR-39 (material from a student's throat swab with acute changes within airways in Seattle in 1983). The basis of separation of the C. pneumoniae species was the unique
