Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in the United States [PDF]

Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2001
Since the first outbreak of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in 1993, understanding of the vast distribution and potential impact of hantaviruses has grown. At least 277 cases of HPS have been documented in the United States. The full clinical spectrum has yet to be elucidated, and one outbreak suggested the possibility of person-to-person ...

Two Atypical Cases of Hantavirus Infections from Sri Lanka

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2018
There are two categories of hantaviruses resulting in two distinct illnesses. The Old World (Asia and Europe) viruses give rise to hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), and the New World (Americas) viruses cause hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS)

Natural Killer Cells in Cancers of Respiratory System and Their Applications in Therapeutic Approaches

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2024.
This article is a novel and comprehensive review of the roles of natural killer cells in various cancers of the respiratory system. It also discusses how those cells can be used to design cancer therapies to treat cancers of the respiratory system. ABSTRACT Background Cancer is still regarded as a major worldwide health issue due to its high health and

Acute kidney injury and tools for risk-stratification in 456 patients with hantavirus-induced nephropathia epidemica [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND Puumala virus (PUUV) is the most common species of hantavirus in Central Europe. Nephropathia epidemica (NE), caused by PUUV, is characterized by acute kidney injury (AKI) and thrombocytopenia.

Thottapalayam virus is genetically distant to the rodent-borne hantaviruses, consistent with its isolation from the Asian house shrew (Suncus murinus) [PDF]

, 2007
Thottapalayam (TPM) virus belongs to the genus Hantavirus, family Bunyaviridae. The genomes of hantaviruses consist of three negative-stranded RNA segments (S, M and L) encoding the virus nucleocapsid (N), glycoprotein (Gn, Gc), and polymerase (L ...

Investigation of Viral, Bacterial and Parasitic Zoonotic Diseases in Rodents in Turkey

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 6, November 2024.
Rodents are reservoir hosts for zoonotic pathogens. In this study, the presence of viral lymphocytic choriomeningitis and hantavirus infections, bacterial tularaemia and leptospirosis, and parasitic leishmaniasis and toxoplasmosis were investigated in 498 rodents collected in Erzurum province, Turkey.

Estimating pathogen‐spillover risk using host–ectoparasite interactions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
Understanding the interacting factors that lead to pathogen transmission in a zoonotic cycle could help identify novel hosts of pathogens and the patterns that lead to disease emergence. We use parasite ecology, phylogenetics, and geography to predict known and unknown hosts of hantavirus.
