Summary: The 2016–2017 epidemic of influenza A (H7N9) virus in China prompted concern that a genetic change may underlie increased virulence. Based on an evolutionary analysis of H7N9 viruses from all five outbreak waves, we find that additional ...

Detection of avian influenza A(H7N9) virus from live poultry markets in Guangzhou, China: a surveillance report. [PDF]
A virologic surveillance program for A(H7N9) virus was conducted from April 15, 2013 to February 14, 2014 in Guangzhou, aiming to clarify the geographical distribution of A(H7N9) viruses among live poultry markets (LPMs) and poultry farms in Guangzhou ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

ABSTRACT For vaccination, the mechanisms of action of antigens and of immunostimulatory pathogen‐associated molecular pattern (PAMP) adjuvants are better understood than the roles of the depot, carrier, and other formulation‐related influences. Here, we carried out cytometric studies of vaccine formulations and the effect of adjuvant formulations on B ...

A new perspective on C-reactive protein in H7N9 infections [PDF]
SummaryObjectivesThe avian influenza H7N9 virus can cause cytokine overproduction and result in severe pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Many studies have focused on hypercytokinemia during avian influenza infection.

Poor responses to oseltamivir treatment in a patient with influenza A (H7N9) virus infection
In March 2013, the cases of human infection with influenza A of H7N9 subtype were first reported. Preliminary data suggested that the H7N9 isolates are sensitive to neuraminidase inhibitors, such as oseltamivir, which is the recommended choice of ...

Modeling Airborne Influenza in Three Dimensions
A novel 3D fluid dynamics model demonstrates how influenza outbreaks spread spatially via “epidemic flow.” Simulations reveal that direct contact is the dominant transmission route over aerosol spread, offering a new tool to inform targeted public health interventions and spatially‐aware risk assessment.

ABSTRACT Complement temporal activation kinetics, activation pathways, and their relationship with thromboinflammation and antibody responses in severe vaccination‐COVID‐19 remains unclear. Based on a vaccinated‐infected cohort, we analyzed complement immune responses across mild to critical COVID‐19 cases by a dynamic model.
