Transmission of Blood Disease in Banana

Plant Disease, 2022
Banana Blood disease is a bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia syzygii subsp. celebesensis and is an economically important disease in Indonesia and Malaysia. Transmission of this pathogen is hypothesized to occur through insects mechanically transferring bacteria from diseased to healthy banana inflorescences and other pathways involving pruning tools,

Non transmissible diseases are often transmissible

European Journal of Epidemiology, 2012
In the work, and in the comments on the work of Nicoll and Sprenger [1], Keil [2] recalled that, in addition to diseases considered as transmissible diseases (which are still the cause of 1/3 of direct deaths), it is imperative to focus attention on non transmissible diseases [3].

Sexually Transmissible Diseases

Postgraduate Medicine, 1975
Gonorrhea and syphilis are well established as major diseases of sexual contact, but few realize how common other such diseases have become. Dr. McCormack looks at these diseases from the standpoint of lesion type or patient complaint. There are excellent guidelines for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients and sexual partners ...

The epidemiology of disease transmission

Home Care Provider, 1997
As inhabitants of the planet Earth, we live in a veritable sea of microorganisms. Virtually every aspect of our environment is heavily populated with different forms of microbial life. From the air we breathe to the food we eat, our daily existence is in the direct presence of literally billions of microorganisms.

Sexually transmissible diseases

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1976
There is a widespread recrudescence of venereal disease. The possible reasons for this are discussed. Each disease is then considered from the viewpoints of clinical course, diagnosis, and treatment. Treatment failures are discussed in detail, immunity is covered, and recommendations for the future conclude the presentation.

Transmissible slow diseases

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1973
In an effort to discern the common features of the transmissible slow diseases, certain aspects of the transmissible subacute spongiform encephalopathies and of visna, maedi and Aleutian disease are discussed. Epidemiological studies indicate a genetic predisposition to these diseases in the natural host species. The causal agent is widely disseminated

Protein transmission in neurodegenerative disease

Nature Reviews Neurology, 2020
Most neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by the intracellular or extracellular aggregation of misfolded proteins such as amyloid-β and tau in Alzheimer disease, α-synuclein in Parkinson disease, and TAR DNA-binding protein 43 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

MATERNAL TRANSMISSION IN HUNTINGTON'S DISEASE

The Lancet, 1983
The effect of maternal transmission on age at onset of Huntington's disease (HD) was examined in 100 unrelated pedigrees. The age at which abnormal movement disorder first appeared could be estimated in 238 patients. More than twice as many of the late-onset cases (age 50 or later) inherited the HD gene from an affected mother than from an affected ...
