Characterizing spreading dynamics of subsampled systems with non-stationary external input [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 102, 040301 (2020), 2020
Many systems with propagation dynamics, such as spike propagation in neural networks and spreading of infectious diseases, can be approximated by autoregressive models. The estimation of model parameters can be complicated by the experimental limitation that one observes only a fraction of the system (subsampling) and potentially time-dependent ...

Norovirus Infection and Disease in an Ecuadorian Birth Cohort: Association of Certain Norovirus Genotypes With Host FUT2 Secretor Status. [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Although norovirus is the most common cause of gastroenteritis, there are few data on the community incidence of infection/disease or the patterns of acquired immunity or innate resistance to norovirus.

Investigation of genotype diversity of 7,804 norovirus sequences in humans and animals of China

Open Life Sciences, 2022
Norovirus is a prominent enteric virus responsible for severe acute gastroenteritis disease burden worldwide. In our current study, we analyzed 7,804 norovirus sequences of human and animals in China which were detected from 1980 to 2020 from GenBank ...

Acceptability of temporary suspension of visiting during norovirus outbreaks:investigating patient, visitor and public opinion [PDF]

, 2016
Background Noroviruses are a leading cause of outbreaks globally and the most common cause of service disruption due to ward closures. Temporary suspension of visiting (TSV) is increasingly a recommended public health measure to reduce exposure ...

Aerosol generation in public restrooms [PDF]

, 2021
Aerosolized droplets play a central role in the transmission of various infectious diseases, including Legionnaire's disease, gastroenteritis-causing norovirus, and most recently COVID-19. Respiratory droplets are known to be the most prominent source of transmission for COVID-19, however, alternative routes may exist given the discovery of small ...

Association between asymptomatic infections and linear growth in 18–24‐month‐old Malawian children

Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Inadequate diet and frequent symptomatic infections are considered major causes of growth stunting in low‐income countries, but interventions targeting these risk factors have achieved limited success. Asymptomatic infections are common in apparently healthy children in rural Malawi and are associated with reduced linear growth, mainly through systemic

Updated classification of norovirus genogroups and genotypes.

Journal of General Virology, 2019
Noroviruses are genetically diverse RNA viruses associated with acute gastroenteritis in mammalian hosts. Phylogenetically, they can be segregated into different genogroups as well as P (polymerase)-groups and further into genotypes and P-types based on ...

Evolution of norovirus [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2014
Norovirus (NoV) is now the dominant aetiological agent of acute gastroenteritis, and, with the recent introduction of rotavirus vaccines in many countries, this is likely to remain the case. NoV has a significant impact on human wellbeing in terms of morbidity, economic costs and mortality in developing countries.

Capturing norovirus transmission [PDF]

Current Opinion in Virology, 2017
Human norovirus is a leading cause of gastroenteritis and is efficiently transmitted between humans and around the globe. The burden of norovirus infections in the global community and in health-care settings warrant the availability of outbreak prevention strategies and control measures that are tailored to the pathogen, outbreak setting and ...

Norovirus: Facts and Reflections from Past, Present, and Future

Viruses, 2021
Human Norovirus is currently the main viral cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGEs) in most countries worldwide. Nearly 50 years after the discovery of the “Norwalk virus” by Kapikian and colleagues, the scientific and medical community continue to ...
