Interactions between enteroviruses and the host : implications for type 1 diabetes [PDF]
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a disease that results after a selective destruction of the insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas. The lack of β-cells renders T1D patients completely unable to synthesize and secrete insulin, which leads to a life-long ...

The Role of B Lymphocytes in Coxsackievirus B3 Infection [PDF]
Coxsackieviruses are important human pathogens, frequently causing myocarditis, pancreatitis, and a variety of less severe diseases. B lymphocytes appear central to the interaction between these viruses and their mammalian hosts, because agammaglobulinemic humans, genetically incapable of antibody production, are susceptible to chronic infections by ...

Reflectance confocal microscopy for the diagnosis of skin infections and infestations [PDF]
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a noninvasive real-time imaging technique that has been widely used for the diagnosis of skin cancer. More recently, it has been reported as a useful tool for the diagnosis and management of several inflammatory ...

Recurrent Coxsackievirus Infection in a Patient with Lamellar Ichthyosis [PDF]
AbstractWe describe a case of coxsackievirus (CV) A6 infection in a patient with lamellar ichthyosis followed by subsequent CV A8 infection within the same year. Atypical cutaneous features characterized the infection. This observation, combined with the rapidity with which reinfection occurred, suggests that the natural history of CV infection may be ...

Hand, foot and mouth disease in Guangdong, China, in 2013: new trends in the continuing epidemic [PDF]
Millions of incidents of hand, foot and mouth disease occur annually in China, with EVA71 and CVA16 as two major causative pathogens. A provincial surveillance system has been implemented in Guangdong for almost 5 years to analyze the aetiological ...

Hand, foot and mouth disease in an immunocompetent adult due to Coxsackievirus A6 [PDF]
Hand, foot and mouth disease most commonly occurs in children less than 10 years old, but can occur in immunocompetent adults. We describe a 37-year-old immunocompetent man who presented with multiple painful papules and vesicles on his palms and feet ...

This research presents a method based on nanopore targeted sequencing (NTS) with pathogen‐specific panels for testing infective endocarditis (IE) and myocarditis. The NTS achieved a detection limit of 20 copies/test for the IE target panel and 10 copies/test for the myocarditis target panel.

Rare Infectious Diseases: Detection and Clinical Implications
Rare infectious diseases are infections that are uncommon, have a low incidence, and are caused by newly emerging pathogens, cross‐species or ectopic infections, or host immunodeficiencies. The detection and diagnosis of rare infections is one of the main reasons for misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

Molecular determinants for virulence in coxsackievirus B1 infection [PDF]
Studies demonstrated that a strain derived from an infectious clone of coxsackievirus B1 (CVB1N) (N. Iizuka, H. Yonekawa, and A. Nomoto, J. Virol. 65:4867-4873, 1991) was 3 to 4 log10 less virulent than the myotropic Tucson strain of CVB1 (CVB1T) following intraperitoneal inoculation of newborn mice. Replacement of nucleotides (nt) 69 to 804 from the 5'
