The Creation of a Weight of Evidence Scoring Database for Risk Factors for Adverse Impacts to Birth Outcomes Using Expert Elicitation

open access: yesBirth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Adverse birth outcomes are important public health measures and account for a substantial public health burden. There is considerable diversity of these health endpoints, as well as in the many factors suspected or recognized to increase their risk.

Bioactivity‐Guided Isolation of β‐Sitosterol From Terminalia glabrescens as a Potent Anti‐Zika Virus Agent

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Zika virus (ZIKV) infection remains a global health concern due to its neurological complications and the lack of specific drugs or vaccines. This study investigated the anti‐ZIKV potential of an ethanolic extract from Terminalia glabrescens leaves.

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

open access: yesVaccines, 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 ...

Arrival of Oropouche Virus in a Nonendemic Area in Northeastern Brazil, 2024

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Orthobunyavirus oropoucheense (OROV) causes Oropouche fever, which exhibits symptoms similar to those of other arboviral diseases. Although it has historically been restricted to the Amazon region, the virus has recently spread to other areas of Brazil.

Longitudinal Monitoring of Systemic Cytokines After Mild Zika Virus Infection Revealed an Association Between Th17 Polarization and Clinical and Serological Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Zika virus (ZIKV) is a neurotropic virus that can cause a variety of neurological manifestations, ranging from mild forms to severe disorders like Guillain–Barré syndrome and congenital Zika syndrome. The pathophysiology of these complications is not fully understood, but they have been linked to host immune responses, particularly a ...

ZIKV Phylogenetic Characterization Reveals Evolutionary Diversity, Regional Dissemination, and Emergence of African Lineages in Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT During the last epidemic in 2015–2016, Zika virus (ZIKV) gaining worldwide attention due to its association with neurological complications such as microcephaly and Guillain‐Barré syndrome. ZIKV can be transmitted through vector‐borne, sexual, maternal‐fetal, and blood transfusion transmission.

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

open access: yesNature 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 ...
