Global infectious disease surveillance

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2000
Infectious diseases remain the leading cause of death among children and young adults. They account for more than 13 million deaths a year with one in two deaths occurring in developing countries. Yet as the battle to control known infectious diseases continues new threats have emerged. Currently researchers are challenged by the resurgence of epidemic

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Infectious intestinal disease : do we know it all? [PDF]

, 2006
Infectious intestinal disease (IID), with associated high morbidity and considerable mortality worldwide, causes a wide spectrum of illness. This ranges from mild discomfort to illness with severe complications.

Vero cytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli in a study of infectious intestinal disease in England. [PDF]

, 2002
An investigation of infectious intestinal disease in England included examination of feces for Vero cytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC). Using DNA probe hybridization 27 VTEC strains were identified, 12 were from cases, and of these three ...

Surveillance of Infectious Diseases

, 2021
Surveillance is the backbone of any disease control program. Data must be representative, timely, and consistent. Collection of data must be systematic. Analysis of data should include analysis by time, place, and person. Data sources can be varied, and have a potentially wide scope from death certification through clinical illness and from laboratory ...

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

Mortality and causes of death in people diagnosed with HIV in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy compared with the general population: an analysis of a national observational cohort

The Lancet Public Health, 2017
Background: Deaths in HIV-positive people have decreased since the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in 1996. Fewer AIDS-related deaths and an ageing cohort have resulted in an increase in the proportion of HIV patients dying ...

Assessment of hybrid population immunity to SARS-CoV-2 following breakthrough infections of distinct SARS-CoV-2 variants by the detection of antibodies to nucleoprotein

Scientific Reports, 2023
Immunity induced by vaccination and infection, referred to as hybrid immunity, provides better protection against SARS-CoV-2 infections compared to immunity induced by vaccinations alone.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Point source outbreaks of Campylobacter jejuni infection--are they more common than we think and what might cause them? [PDF]

, 2003
Despite being the commonest bacterial cause of infectious intestinal disease (IID) in England and Wales, outbreaks of campylobacter infection are rarely reported.
