Ecologic and Geographic Distribution of Filovirus Disease
We used ecologic niche modeling of outbreaks and sporadic cases of filovirus-associated hemorrhagic fever (HF) to provide a large-scale perspective on the geographic and ecologic distributions of Ebola and Marburg viruses.

The Ebola virus disease outbreak in Tonkolili district, Sierra Leone: a retrospective analysis of the Viral Haemorrhagic Fever surveillance system, July 2014–June 2015 [PDF]
In Sierra Leone, the Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak occurred with substantial differences between districts with someone even not affected. To monitor the epidemic, a community event-based surveillance system was set up, collecting data into the ...

Pitstop 2 binds to the clathrin terminal domain. This work explores the nature of the benzylidene moiety, R. The synthesis of 56 novel analogues reveals enhanced potency of a multiple analogues, with catechol‐free 2,3‐dihydroxybenzo[b][1,4]dioxone (54) returning a 1.2 μm IC50, ca 10‐fold more active than Pitstop 2. Pitstop 2, (Z)‐N‐(5‐(4‐bromenzylidene)

The Antiviral Activity of Polyphenols
Polyphenols demonstrate remarkable antiviral properties by effectively disrupting multiple biochemical processes essential for viral replication. ABSTRACT Polyphenols are secondary metabolites produced by a large variety of plants. These compounds that comprise the class of phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans, coumarins, flavonoids, and tannins have a ...

A systematic review and meta-analysis of seroprevalence surveys of ebolavirus infection. [PDF]
Asymptomatic ebolavirus infection could greatly influence transmission dynamics, but there is little consensus on how frequently it occurs or even if it exists. This paper summarises the available evidence on seroprevalence of Ebola, Sudan and Bundibugyo
