Shuni Virus in Cases of Neurologic Disease in Humans, South Africa

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
We describe Shuni virus (SHUV) detection in human neurologic disease cases in South Africa. SHUV RNA was identified in 5% of cerebrospinal fluid specimens collected during the arbovirus season from public sector hospitals. This finding suggests that SHUV

Seroepidemiological Investigation and Risk Factors of Schmallenberg Virus Infection in Sheep and Goats in Bangladesh

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is an emerging vector‐borne pathogen that significantly impacts the health and productivity of both domesticated and wild ruminants, leading to considerable economic losses. Its transmission via arthropod vectors raises concerns about potential geographic expansion, particularly to South Asia, including Bangladesh, where ...

Spatial Modelling of Environmental Risk Factors Influencing Schmallenberg Virus Exposure in German Sheep

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is a Culicoides‐borne Orthobunyavirus causing congenital malformations and reproductive losses in ruminants, with substantial economic and livestock health impacts across Europe. While outbreaks have been linked to specific climatic and environmental conditions, the drivers of SBV transmission in endemic regions remain poorly ...

Ecologic Traits Analysis for Identifying Rodent Hosts for Arenavirus and Hepacivirus in the Americas

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
Over half of emerging human pathogens originate from wildlife, with rodents serving as key zoonotic hosts. This study used ecological trait‐based models to identify rodent traits associated with arenavirus and hepacivirus infections and detect potential host species across the Americas, our models achieve high predictive accuracy (AUC = 0.92–0.96).

Oropouche Virus Importation in Southern Brazil and Emerging Concern Calling for Enhanced Public Health Surveillance

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Oropouche virus (OROV), an arthropod‐borne virus transmitted by Culicoides paraensis, is an endemic arbovirus that historically circulates mostly in the Amazon basin. Between 2022 and 2024, it reemerged as a more widespread public health concern in South America.

Schmallenberg Virus as Possible Ancestor of Shamonda Virus

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
Schmallenberg virus (SBV), an orthobunyavirus of the Simbu serogroup, recently emerged in Europe and has been suggested to be a Shamonda/Sathuperi virus reassortant.

Investigating Viral Causes of Abortions: A Comprehensive Molecular and Pathological Study on Small Ruminants in East Azerbaijan Province, Iran

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
Evaluation of viral causes of abortion in small ruminants in East Azerbaijan province, Northwest Iran. Step 1: Sample collection. a. A total of 373 blood samples were collected from adult sheep and goats with a recent abortion history. b. A total of 62 aborted foetuses were collected after a systematic necropsy.

Two Birds With One Stone: RNA Virus Strategies to Manipulate G3BP1 and Other Stress Granule Components

open access: yesWIREs RNA, Volume 16, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Stress granules emerging during viral infection can play both pro‐ and antiviral roles. RNA viruses use various strategies to antagonize their formation, including the degradation, inhibition, or sequestration of G3BP1, a key stress granule protein. However, biochemical and structural insights into these mechanisms have been reported for only a handful

Current and Future Probability of Occurrence of the Floodwater Mosquito Aedes vexans (Meigen, 1830) in the Netherlands

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 2, Page 187-199, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aedes vexans (Meigen, 1830) is a floodwater mosquito species that may cause significant nuisance and can serve as a vector for multiple arboviruses. Its distribution is expected to shift in the future as a result of changes in climate and land use. Understanding these shifts is important for estimating future disease risk.

Powassan Virus Encephalitis in an Immunocompromised Patient: A Diagnostic Challenge With Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Powassan virus (POWV) is a tick‐borne flavivirus transmitted to humans by Ixodes ticks. In this report, we describe an immunocompromised patient who presented with progressive neurologic symptoms and was diagnosed with POWV encephalitis. Additionally, the patient tested positive for Jamestown Canyon virus (JCV), a mosquito‐borne orthobunyavirus ...
