Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever in Pakistan

Journal of Medical Virology, 2008
AbstractCrimean‐Congo virus, the causative agent of Crimean‐Congo Virus Fever (CCVF) is endemic in Pakistan. Cases are documented sporadically ever year, mostly at and around the time of Eid‐ul‐Adha, an Islamic festival, celebrated on day 10 through 13 of the 12th month of each lunar calendar year.

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus

Current Molecular Medicine, 2005
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is an important human pathogen, which is the cause of a tick-borne illness occurring in many areas of Africa, Asia, and Europe. CCHF is characterized by a sudden onset of high fever, chills, and severe headache.

Pathogenesis of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2013
Although Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a widespread tick-borne disease, little is known about its pathogenesis. The interaction of the virus with host cells is most likely responsible for the pathogenesis of CCHF. The main contributors are endothelial cells (ECs) and immune cells.

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever in Tajikistan

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2012
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a pathogenic tick-borne disease caused by a single-stranded negative-sense RNA virus classified within the Nairovirus genus of the family Bunyaviridae . Cases of CCHF have been registered in Tajikistan since the

Treatment of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever

Antiviral Research, 2008
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) has the most extensive geographic range of the medically significant tick-borne viruses, occurring from western China across southern Asia to eastern Europe and South Africa. The causative agent is a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA virus in the genus Nairovirus, family Bunyaviridae.

Diagnosis of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever

Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2015
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus is the most extensive tick-borne virus, it causes a severe infection, which occurs widely in Africa, Eastern Europe and Asia. In recent years, the dramatic increase in the global distribution of CCHF, with the high mortality rates, highlights the importance of improving diagnostic capacity.

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever in Turkey

2007
The first published seroepidemiologic study on Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) in Turkey was performed in the Agean region of Turkey in the 1970s [30]. According to this study, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) antibodies were detected in 96 out of 1,074 (9.2%) human serum samples, by hemaglutination inhibition test.

Cytokines as biomarkers of Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever

Journal of Medical Virology, 2015
Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a potentially severe disease caused by CCHF virus. As in other viral hemorrhagic fevers, it is considered that the course and outcome of the disease depend on the viral load and the balance among the immune response mediators, and that a fatal ...

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever

2019
Crimean hemorrhagic fever (CHF) was described as a clinical entity in 1944 and 1945 during an epidemic in the western steppe region of Crimea, U.S.S.R. A viral etiology was suggested by reproducing a similar disease syndrome in psychiatric patients undergoing pyrogenic therapy after inoculation with a filterable agent from the blood of CHF patients ...
