Ebola Stigma and Its Impact on Outbreak Control: Lessons From Key Informant Interviews in Central Uganda

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 9, Page 1006-1017, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives The 2022 outbreak of Sudan ebolavirus in central Uganda was the country's largest in two decades. It was accompanied by reports of stigma towards affected individuals, households and communities. The objectives of this study were to (1) describe how Ebola disease stigma emerged and manifested during the 2022 Sudan ebolavirus ...

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

Modeling the Ebolavirus Life Cycle with Transcription and Replication-Competent Viruslike Particle Assays

, 2017
Ebolaviruses are the causative agent of a severe hemorrhagic fever with high case fatality rates, for which no approved specific therapy is available. As biosafety level 4 (BSL4) agents, work with live ebolaviruses is restricted to maximum containment ...

Visualisierung aktiver Zentren in elektrogesponnenen photoaktiven Membranen mittels Fluoreszenz‐Lebensdauer‐Bildgebung

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 136, Issue 50, December 9, 2024.
In dieser Studie wurden durch Elektrospinning photoaktive Membranen aus hydrophobem PCL und hydrophilem PAN hergestellt, in die entweder ein hydrophober oder hydrophiler Photosensibilisator eingebettet wurde. Mit Hilfe der Fluoreszenzlebensdauer‐Mikroskopie konnten photoangeregte „aktive Zentren“ innerhalb der Membranen identifiziert werden und damit ...

Viruses and Non‐Woven Polymers: Surface Properties and Future Perspectives in Sampling for Wastewater‐Based Epidemiology

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 11, Issue 27, September 23, 2024.
As viruses continue to pose a public health risk, this timely review provides an overview of the surface properties of viruses, surface characterizing techniques, and their interaction mechanisms with adsorbent materials. Furthermore, the surface functionalization techniques and adsorbent properties of polymer electrospun membranes are explored as ...

Serological Evidence for the Circulation of Ebolaviruses in Pigs From Sierra Leone

, 2018
Many human ebolavirus outbreaks have been linked to contact with wildlife including nonhuman primates and bats, which are assumed to serve as host species.

Investigation of Ebolavirus exposure in pigs presented for slaughter in Uganda [PDF]

, 2021
In 2008, an outbreak ofReston ebolavirus(RESTV) in pigs in the Philippines expanded our understanding of the host range of ebolaviruses. Subsequent experimental infections with the human-pathogenic speciesZaire ebolavirus(EBOV) confirmed that pigs are ...

Endoplasmic reticulum stress in diseases

MedComm, Volume 5, Issue 9, September 2024.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) serves as a vital organelle in eukaryotic cells, performing essential roles such as protein folding, modification, and trafficking, lipid biosynthesis, and calcium regulation. Various conditions may disrupt ER function, potentially leading to the accumulation of unfolded and misfolded proteins, and triggering ER stress ...
