Reconstruction of the Evolutionary History and Dispersal of Usutu Virus, a Neglected Emerging Arbovirus in Europe and Africa

open access: yesmBio, 2016
Usutu virus (USUV), one of the most neglected Old World encephalitic flaviviruses, causes epizootics among wild and captive birds and sporadic infection in humans. The dynamics of USUV spread and evolution in its natural hosts are unknown.

Simian hemorrhagic fever virus infection of rhesus macaques as a model of viral hemorrhagic fever: Clinical characterization and risk factors for severe disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Simian Hemorrhagic Fever Virus (SHFV) has caused sporadic outbreaks of hemorrhagic fevers in macaques at primate research facilities. SHFV is a BSL-2 pathogen that has not been linked to human disease; as such, investigation of SHFV pathogenesis in non ...

Treatment of Argentine hemorrhagic fever [PDF]

open access: yesAntiviral Research, 2008
Argentine hemorrhagic fever (AHF) is a rodent-borne illness caused by the arenavirus Junin that is endemic to the humid pampas of Argentina. AHF has had significant morbidity since its emergence in the 1950s, with a case-fatality rate of the illness without treatment between 15% and 30%.

Most neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies target novel epitopes requiring both Lassa virus glycoprotein subunits

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Lassa virus can cause haemorrhagic fever for which no specific treatment currently exists. Here the authors have cloned 113 monoclonal antibodies from the survivors of Lassa infection and show that the majority of neutralizing antibodies target a complex

Comparing Conventional and Deep Feature Models for Classifying Fundus Photography of Hemorrhages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Diabetic retinopathy is an eye-related pathology creating abnormalities and causing visual impairment, proper treatment of which requires identifying irregularities. This research uses a hemorrhage detection method and compares classification of conventional and deep features.

Risk factors associated with sustained circulation of six zoonotic arboviruses: a systematic review for selection of surveillance sites in non-endemic areas

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Arboviruses represent a significant burden to public health and local economies due to their ability to cause unpredictable and widespread epidemics. To maximize early detection of arbovirus emergence in non-endemic areas, surveillance efforts should ...

Chaotic desynchronization of multi-strain diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Multi-strain diseases are diseases that consist of several strains, or serotypes. The serotypes may interact by antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), in which infection with a single serotype is asymptomatic, but infection with a second serotype leads to serious illness accompanied by greater infectivity.

In vitro micropropagation and apocarotenoid gene expression in saffron [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) is a triploid, sterile, monocot plant belonging to the family Iridaceae, sub-family Crocoideae. C.sativus only blooms once a year and should be collected within a very short duration, the stigmas of Saffron flowers are harvested manually and subjected to desiccation then have been used as a spice.

Improvement of Automatic Hemorrhages Detection Methods Using Shapes Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computer Science 9 (9): 1205-1210, 2013, 2013
Diabetic Retinopathy is a medical condition where the retina is damaged because fluid leaks from blood vessels into the retina. The presence of hemorrhages in the retina is the earliest symptom of diabetic retinopathy. The number and shape of hemorrhages is used to indicate the severity of the disease.
