Evaluation of reverse transcription loop‐mediated isothermal amplification assay for the detection of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome in clinical laboratories: A single‐center study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an acute infectious disease prevalent in East Asia with a high mortality rate (5%–30%). Reverse transcription loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (RT‐LAMP), a rapid nucleic acid‐based diagnostic technique, is a useful alternative for the clinical diagnosis of SFTS, particularly in ...

High rates of antibodies against Toscana and Sicilian phleboviruses in common quail Coturnix coturnix birds

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionBirds are involved natural cycle of a number of vector-borne viruses in both rural and urban areas. Toscana (TOSV) and Sicilian (SFSV) phleboviruses are sandfly-borne viruses in the genus Phlebovirus that can cause diseases in human. However,

Contemporary epidemiological data of Rift Valley fever virus in humans, mosquitoes and other animal species in Africa: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 5, Page 2309-2328, September 2023., 2023
Graphical Abstract: A total of 205 articles were included in the final analysis. The study shows that there is a correspondingly similar prevalence of RVF in human and animals; however, human CFR is much higher than the observed prevalence. Abstract Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a severe zoonotic mosquito‐borne disease that represents an important threat ...

Effect of high‐volume insecticide spraying on sand fly vectors in household gardens in Spain

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 70, Issue 6, Page 511-522, September 2023., 2023
Abstract This study investigated the efficacy of high‐volume spraying with the adulticide α‐cypermethrin alone and in combination with the larvicide diflubenzuron on the density of sand flies in gardens of three detached households in periurban areas in southeast Spain.
