Hypopituitarism after Orthohantavirus Infection: What is Currently Known? [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
Several case reports have described hypopituitarism following orthohantavirus infection, mostly following Puumala virus. The pathogenesis of this seemingly rare complication of orthohantavirus infection remains unknown.

Hantavirus seroprevalence and associated factors for exposure in south-central Uganda   [PDF]

Emerging Microbes and Infections
Orthohantaviruses are largely rodent-borne pathogens that can cause haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome. In Uganda, the risk of human exposure is heightened by known rodent hosts, close human-rodent interaction ...

Serological Evidence of Human Orthohantavirus Infections in Barbados, 2008 to 2016

Pathogens, 2021
Background: Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) is well-known in South and North America; however, not enough data exist for the Caribbean. The first report of clinical orthohantavirus infection was obtained in Barbados, but no other evidence of clinical

Epidemiological Investigation and Analysis of <i>Orthohantavirus hantanense</i> and <i>Orthohantavirus seoulense</i> From Wild Rodents in Liaoning Province, China. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Background Liaoning Province possesses distinct ecological characteristics, including high forest cover and developed agriculture, which provide suitable habitats for various rodent species. Over the years, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), caused by members of the genus Orthohantavirus, such as Orthohantavirus hantanense (HTNV) and ...

First Molecular Detection of Orthohantaviruses (Orthohantavirus hantanense and O. jejuense) in Trombiculid Mites from Wild Rodents in the Republic of Korea [PDF]

Pathogens
Orthohantaviruses are zoonotic pathogens that cause severe diseases in humans primarily through inhalation of aerosols from rodent excreta. Recent studies suggest that ectoparasites may be potential vectors for Orthohantaviruses.

Surveillance of Zoonotic Pathogens in Small Mammals Across Forests With Different Levels of Anthropization in Eastern France. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
The emergence of infectious diseases associated with land‐use changes is well‐documented. However, the presence and dynamics of zoonotic pathogens in small mammals within European forests, whether from rural development or urban greening, remain underexplored.
