Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever [PDF]

Mediterranean Journal of Infection, Microbes and Antimicrobials, 2017
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne zoonotic infectious disease caused by the CCHF virus belonging to the genus Nairovirus of the Bunyaviridae family. Transmission occurs mainly as a result of Hyalomma m.

Prognostic Value of Admission Glucose and Extended Lipid Profile in Patients with Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a life‐threatening viral hemorrhagic fever with a highly variable clinical course. While viral and inflammatory markers determining disease severity are well defined, the impact of the host's metabolic status on CCHF severity remains largely unexplored.

Assessment of Butchers' Awareness, Attitude, and Occupational Practices Toward Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) in Kabul, Afghanistan: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a viral disease with a fatality rate up to 40%, transmitted through tick bites and infected livestock. Afghanistan's livestock farming and limited public health infrastructure increase infection risks.

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever

Uirusu, 2022
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an acute febrile illness with a high case fatality rate caused by the infection with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV). The disease is endemic to a wide regions from the African continent to Asia through Europe. CCHFV is maintained in nature between Hyalomma species ticks and some species of animals.

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2007
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever is a tick-borne viral zoonosis with the potential of human-to-human transmission, affecting wide areas in Asia, Southeastern Europe, and Africa. Hemorrhagic manifestations constitute a prominent symptom of late stage disease with case fatality rates from 10% to 50%.

Development and Characterization of Microsatellite Genetic Markers for <i>Hyalomma rufipes</i>, a Tick Vector of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study developed and validated 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers to investigate the population genetics of Hyalomma rufipes, a tick species that transmits Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) in East Africa. Ticks collected from livestock in northern Kenya were morphologically and genetically identified, followed by genome sequencing ...
