Diagnostic Accuracy of Real Time Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction for Chikungunya Virus Detection: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an arbovirus that causes an acute febrile illness with intense muscle and joint pain, with the possibility of progressing to a chronic or neurological stage. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis with the aim of evaluating the accuracy of real‐time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain ...

Experimental Transmission of Mayaro Virus by Aedes aegypti [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2011
Outbreaks of Mayaro fever have been associated with a sylvatic cycle of Mayaro virus (MAYV) transmission in South America. To evaluate the potential for a common urban mosquito to transmit MAYV, laboratory vector competence studies were performed with Aedes aegypti from Iquitos, Peru. Oral infection in Ae.

Climatic, Socioecological and Environmental Determinants of Aedes spp. Dynamics at the Community Interface: A Systematic Review With Reflections From a One Health Perspective

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 7, Page 807-821, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Mosquitoes of the genus Aedes, including but not limited to Aedes aegypti , are major vectors of arboviruses such as dengue, Zika and other related diseases. Their global expansion is driven by climate change, globalisation, urbanisation and human mobility.

Mayaro Virus Induction of Oxidative Stress is Associated With Liver Pathology in a Non-Lethal Mouse Model

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Mayaro virus (MAYV) causes Mayaro fever in humans, a self-limiting acute disease, with persistent arthralgia and arthritis. Although MAYV has a remerging potential, its pathogenic mechanisms remain unclear.

Infection with chikungunya virus confers heterotypic cross-neutralizing antibodies and memory B-cells against other arthritogenic alphaviruses predominantly through the B domain of the E2 glycoprotein.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2023
Infections with Chikungunya virus, a mosquito-borne alphavirus, cause an acute febrile syndrome often followed by chronic arthritis that persists for months to years post-infection.

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 35, 24 June 2026.
As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.

Evaluation of Antiviral Activity of Cyclic Ketones against Mayaro Virus

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Mayaro virus (MAYV) is a neglected arthropod-borne virus found in the Americas. MAYV infection results in Mayaro fever, a non-lethal debilitating disease characterized by a strong inflammatory response affecting the joints and muscles.

Water and Artisanal and Small‐Scale Gold Mining: A Review of the Literature

open access: yesWIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
This paper reviews the relationships between artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) and water. We show the variegated impacts ASGM has on water and, thus, socio‐ecological systems and health. We conclude by identifying gaps in the scholarship.
