Genetic characterization of human coxsackievirus A6 variants associated with atypical hand, foot and mouth disease: a potential role of recombination in emergence and pathogenicity [PDF]
Human coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) is an enterically transmitted enterovirus. Until recently, CVA6 infections were considered as being of minor clinical significance, and only rarely aetiologically linked with hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) associated ...

Synthesis, Antiviral and Antitumor Activity of 2- substituted-5-amidino-benzimidazoles [PDF]
We have prepared a set of heterocyclic benzimidazole derivatives bearing amidino substituents at C-5 of benzimidazole ring, by introducing various heterocyclic nuclei (pyridine, N-methyl-pyrrole or imidazole) at C-2, and evaluated their antitumor and ...

MOLECULAR-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE OUTBREAK OF ASEPTIC MENINGITIS IN NOVOSIBIRSK REGION
The aim of this study was to investigate the outbreak of aseptic meningitis in theNovosibirskregion in 2008–2009. We studied genetic diversity and molecular-epidemiological characteristics of human enteroviruses that caused aseptic meningitis.

Comparative analysis of viral shedding in pediatric and adult subjects with central nervous system-associated enterovirus infections from 2013 to 2015 in Switzerland. [PDF]
Several enterovirus (EV) genotypes can result in aseptic meningitis, but their routes of access to the central nervous system remain to be elucidated and may differ between the pediatric and adult populations.

Outbreak of Enterovirus D68 in Young Children, Brescia, Italy, August to November 2024. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Enterovirus D68 (EV‐D68) is responsible for a plethora of clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic infections to severe respiratory symptoms and neurological disorders. EV‐D68 was first detected in children with pneumonia in 1962 and, from then, only sporadic cases were reported until 2014, when outbreaks were notified across the ...

Increased risk of noninfluenza respiratory virus infections associated with receipt of inactivated influenza vaccine [PDF]
We randomized 115 children to trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV) or placebo. Over the following 9 months, TIV recipients had an increased risk of virologically-confirmed non-influenza infections (relative risk: 4.40; 95 confidence interval: 1 ...

High Seroprevalence of Enterovirus Infections in Apes and Old World Monkeys
To estimate population exposure of apes and Old World monkeys in Africa to enteroviruses (EVs), we conducted a seroepidemiologic study of serotype-specific neutralizing antibodies against 3 EV types.

The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]
As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses must traverse the host-cell plasma membrane to initiate infection. This presents a formidable barrier, which they have evolved diverse strategies to overcome.
