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.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of seroprevalence surveys of ebolavirus infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Asymptomatic ebolavirus infection could greatly influence transmission dynamics, but there is little consensus on how frequently it occurs or even if it exists. This paper summarises the available evidence on seroprevalence of Ebola, Sudan and Bundibugyo

The Silent Risk of Sudan Virus: A Review Addressing Global Health Vulnerabilities

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Sudan Virus Disease (SVD) is a deadly hemorrhagic fever caused by the Sudan virus, first discovered in Sudan in 1976. This disease has been linked to several outbreaks in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in Uganda. The high fatality rate of SVD, ranging from 41% to 70%, emphasizes the critical need for effective preventive ...

Post-Ebola Measles Outbreak in Lola, Guinea, January–June 2015

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
During public health crises such as the recent outbreaks of Ebola virus disease in West Africa, breakdowns in public health systems can lead to epidemics of vaccine-preventable diseases. We report here on an outbreak of measles in the prefecture of Lola,

The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 587-611, November 2025.
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.

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.

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.

Modernising epidemic science: enabling patient-centred research during epidemics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Emerging and epidemic infectious disease outbreaks are a significant public health problem and global health security threat. As an outbreak begins, epidemiological investigations and traditional public health responses are generally mounted ...
