Ecologic and Geographic Distribution of Filovirus Disease

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
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.

Infrastructure and methods for real-time predictions of the 2014 dengue fever season in Thailand [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Epidemics of communicable diseases place a huge burden on public health infrastructures across the world. Producing accurate and actionable forecasts of infectious disease incidence at short and long time scales will improve public health response to outbreaks.

Point-of-Care Ultrasound Assessment of Tropical Infectious Diseases—A Review of Applications and Perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The development of good quality and affordable ultrasound machines has led to the establishment and implementation of numerous point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) protocols in various medical disciplines.

Ebolavirus evolution and emergence are associated with land use change

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Anthropogenic land use change facilitates disease emergence by altering the interface between humans and pathogen reservoirs and is hypothesized to drive pathogen evolution. Here, we show a positive association between land use change and the evolution and dispersal of Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV) and Sudan ebolavirus (SUDV).

Molecular Mechanisms of Ebola Virus Entry into Permissive Cells

open access: yesПроблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2015
Ebola virus, representative of the Ebolavirus genus, Filoviridae family, causes severe hemorrhagic fever in humans, with lethality rates amounting up to 90 %. The members of Ebolavirus genus infect a broad range of mammalian cells.

Research progress Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever vaccine

open access: yesJournal of Applied Virology, 2015
<p>Ebola hemorrhagic fever is a potent infectious disease by Ebola virus caused 90% mortality rate. Ebola virus was first isolated in 1976 by, for single-stranded negative segment, non-segmented, enveloped RNA viruses belonging to filamentous virus family. Ebola virus can be divided into five different subtypes.

Zoonotic Host Richness in the Global Wildland–Urban Interface

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 2, February 2025.
In the wildland–urban interface (WUI), where human settlements abut or intermix with wildlands, people may encounter animals that host zoonotic pathogens, which can spillover to cause human disease. We map the distribution of zoonotic hosts in the global WUI and show that large populations in tropical low–middle‐income countries (LMICs) are potentially

Biomarker Correlates of Survival in Pediatric Patients with Ebola Virus Disease

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
Outbreaks of Ebola virus disease (EVD) occur sporadically in Africa and are associated with high case-fatality rates. Historically, children have been less affected than adults.

Automatic Classification of the Movements of Directed and Undirected Subviral Particles

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2020
The development of drugs against pathogens that cause hemorrhagic fever, such as Marburg and Ebola virus, requires researchers to gather much information about the virus.

The Interplay Between Viral Infection and Cell Death: A Ping‐Pong Effect

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Programmed cell death (PCD) is a well‐studied cellular mechanism that plays a critical role in immune responses, developmental processes, and the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. However, viruses have developed diverse strategies to bypass or manipulate the host apoptotic machinery to enhance their replication and survival.
