Circulation and seasonality of influenza viruses in different transmission zones in Africa

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Influenza is responsible for more than 5 million severe cases and 290,000 to 650,000 deaths every year worldwide. Developing countries account for 99% of influenza deaths in children under 5 years of age.

Viral Hyperparasitism in Bat Ectoparasites: Implications for Pathogen Maintenance and Transmission

Microorganisms, 2022
Humans continue to encroach on the habitats of wild animals, potentially bringing different species into contact that would not typically encounter each other under natural circumstances, and forcing them into stressful, suboptimal conditions.

SARS-CoV-2 infection-induced immunity reduces rates of reinfection and hospitalization caused by the Delta or Omicron variants

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2023
During a pandemic, effective vaccines are typically in short supply, particularly at onset intervals when the wave is accelerating. We conducted an observational, retrospective analysis of aggregated data from all patients who tested positive for SARS ...

Molecular diagnostic and genetic characterization of highly pathogenic viruses: application during Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever virus outbreaks in Eastern Europe and the Middle East [PDF]

, 2012
Several haemorrhagic fevers are caused by highly pathogenic viruses that must be handled in Biosafety level 4 (BSL–4) containment. These zoonotic infections have an important impact on public health and the development of a rapid and differential ...

Ticks on the run: A mathematical model of Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever (CCHF)-key factors for transmission [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne zoonotic disease caused by the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV). Ticks belonging to the genus \textit{Hyalomma} are the main vectors and reservoir for the virus. It is maintained in nature in an endemic vertebrate-tick-vertebrate cycle.

Hierarchy of knowledge translation: from health problems to ad-hoc drug design [PDF]

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2016 23 (26), 3000-3012, 2015
An innovative approach to analyze the complexity of translating novel molecular entities and nanomaterials into pharmaceutical alternatives (i.e., knowledge translation, KT) is discussed. First, some key concepts on the organization and translation of the biomedical knowledge (paradigms, homophily, power law distributions, hierarchy, modularity, and ...
