After the epidemic: Zika virus projections for Latin America and the Caribbean.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
BackgroundZika is one of the most challenging emergent vector-borne diseases, yet its future public health impact remains unclear. Zika was of little public health concern until recent reports of its association with congenital syndromes.

Ocular Histopathologic Features of Congenital Zika Syndrome [PDF]

JAMA Ophthalmology, 2017
Congenital Zika syndrome (CZS) is known to be associated with severe malformations in newborns. Although microcephaly is the hallmark of this disease, the ocular findings are important given the severe visual impairment that has been observed in these patients. Regardless of the increased number of CZS cases reported, to date, no studies have described

Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.

Clinical Trials and Administration of Zika Virus Vaccine in Pregnant Women: Lessons (that Should Have Been) Learned from Excluding Immunization with the Ebola Vaccine during Pregnancy and Lactation

Vaccines, 2018
As evidenced from recent epidemics, both Ebola and Zika virus infection are potentially catastrophic when occurring in pregnant women. Ebola virus causes extremely high rates of mortality in both mothers and infants; Zika virus is a TORCH infection that ...

Opportunities and Challenges for Surveillance of Congenital Anomalies in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Birth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Congenital anomalies (CA) are ranked as the 3rd and 4th leading cause of neonatal and under‐5 mortality, respectively. Over 30% of infants born with a serious CA are found in sub‐Saharan Africa. Yet there are few robust epidemiological data on the burden and distribution of CA and associated mortality, disability, and morbidity ...

Mapping the Cerebral Organoid Landscape: A Systematic Review of Preclinical 3D Models in Neuroscience

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 18, 15 May 2026.
Cerebral organoids are transforming brain research, yet the field remains fragmented. This comprehensive systematic review maps 738 studies published between 2014 and 2024 to uncover trends, gaps, and opportunities across neuroscience. Introducing OrganoidMap—an interactive, open‐access platform to explore and compare models—this work enables ...

Discordant congenital Zika syndrome twins show differential in vitro viral susceptibility of neural progenitor cells

Nature Communications, 2018
Zika virus (ZIKV) infection can cause congenital Zika syndrome (CZS), but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, the authors generate neural progenitor cells from dizygotic twins with a discordant phenotype regarding CZS and study their ...
