Deliberating the scientific evidence base for influenza transmission to raw milk consumers
Abstract Transmission of influenza A H5N1, commonly known as avian influenza or bird flu, from wild birds to cows on 1073 large US dairy farms in 17 states, and from cows to 41 dairy workers in five states, has raised concerns about limited evidence for transmission routes.

Progress Towards the Prevention and Treatment of Norovirus Infections [PDF]
Noroviruses are now recognized as the major cause of acute gastroenteritis in the developed world, yet our ability to prevent and control infection is limited. Recent work has highlighted that, while typically an acute infection in the population, immunocompromised patients often experience long-term infections that may last many years.

Background Norovirus, also known as the winter vomiting bug, is the predominant cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. Disease control is predicated on a robust innate immune response during the early stages of infection.

ABSTRACT Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) represents a significant health risk to pediatric stem cell transplant (SCT) patients. In these patients, recurrent CDI is common, requiring prolonged antibiotic usage and increased hospitalization. Bezlotoxumab, a monoclonal antibody that targets the toxin responsible for CDI, has demonstrated efficacy

Acute viral gastroenteritis in children hospitalized in Iksan, Korea during December 2010-June 2011 [PDF]
PurposeViral etiology is common in cases of children with acute diarrhea, and antibiotic therapy is usually not required. Therefore, it is important to determine the distribution of common viruses among children hospitalized with acute diarrhea.MethodsWe

Prevalence and Genotype Distribution of Sapovirus in China: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
This review highlights a distinct age‐related trend in Sapovirus (SaV) prevalence in China, peaking among kindergarten children and adults. These results not only enhance the understanding of SaV's epidemiology but also provide a robust foundation for estimating disease burden and informing the development of targeted vaccines and public health ...
