Stewardship of Molecular Diagnostics in Transplant Viral Infections

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transplant environment requires special considerations when testing for viral infections as immunosuppression results in atypical infection profiles. Microbes otherwise considered commensals or causing mild disease can lead to severe infections in transplant environments. Therefore, guidelines tend to recommend broader microbial testing in

Invasive pneumococcal disease in Australia, 2002

Communicable Diseases Intelligence, 2003
There were 2,271 cases of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) notified to the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System in Australia in 2002; a rate of 11.5 cases per 100,000 population. The notification rate varied between states and territories and by geographical region with the highest rates in the north of the country. Invasive pneumococcal

Infections in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Evolving Risks and Prevention Strategies

European Journal of Haematology, Volume 116, Issue 3, Page 204-214, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Infections remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), reflecting both intrinsic immune dysfunction and therapy‐related immunosuppression. The pathogenesis of immunodeficiency in CLL is multifactorial: neoplastic B cells impair humoral immunity, T cells are functionally exhausted, and ...

Epidemiological approaches to evaluate clinical unmasking of HPV‐associated cervical lesions in the HPV vaccination era

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 4, Page 847-857, 15 February 2026.
Abstract HPV vaccination reduces the risk of developing HPV‐attributable cancers, including cervical cancer. However, an attenuation of HPV vaccine impact after the implementation of HPV vaccination may occur through clinical unmasking. Clinical unmasking is a distinct and complex phenomenon that arises in the absence of clinical interventions ...

Pneumococcal carriage, serotype distribution and risk factors in children with community-acquired pneumonia, 5 years after introduction of the 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in Ethiopia [PDF]

, 2019
Background: There is a scarcity of data on pneumococcal serotypes carried by children in Ethiopia. We studied pneumococcal nasopharyngeal carriage rate, serotypes, and risk factors among children with community acquired pneumonia (CAP).

The ZNF148‐ZEB1‐AS1‐IGF2BP2‐NOD2 Axis Drives Microglial Antipneumococcal Immunity in Bacterial Meningitis

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 2, February 2026.
ZNF148 upregulates ZEB1‐AS1, which scaffolds IGF2BP2 to stabilize NOD2 mRNA, enhancing microglial anti‐pneumococcal immunity via cytokine production and bacterial clearance in bacterial meningitis. ABSTRACT Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) meningitis remains a lethal central nervous system (CNS) infection with limited therapies. This study identifies the

Cardio–Renal Diseases Are Independent Risk Factors of Severe Human Metapneumovirus Infection Among Patients Without Chronic Airway Diseases

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) causes mild and self‐limiting disease in adults. However, the risk factors for serious adverse outcomes following hMPV infection in adult patients without preexisting chronic airway diseases remain poorly understood.

The remaining challenges of pneumococcal disease in adults [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2012
Pneumococcal disease can be divided into invasive disease, i.e. when bacteria are detected in normally sterile body fluids, and noninvasive disease. Pneumococcal disease occurs more frequently in younger children and older adults.
