Post-infectious fatigue following Puumala virus infection [PDF]
Background: Puumala virus infection or nephropathia epidemica (NE) is common in northern Sweden. NE causes haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. Most patients make a full recovery, but a convalescent phase with fatigue has been reported. Although post-infectious fatigue has been demonstrated for other viral infections, it is not well studied in ...

Patterns of Puumala virus infection in Finland
Puumala hantavirus infection is prevalent throughout most of Europe, and in endemic areas it may be the most common cause of acute renal failure. To evaluate trends in incidence of Puumala virus infections in Finland, we analysed national surveillance data in 12-month periods from March 1995 to February 2002. During this time, 8184 laboratory-confirmed

Risk Factors for Human Infection with Puumala Virus, Southwestern Germany [PDF]
Puumala virus, which causes nephropathia epidemica (NE), is the most prevalent hantavirus in Germany; bank voles serve as the main reservoir. During 2001-2007, most NE cases reported from Germany occurred in the southwestern state of Baden-Württemberg.

A highly divergent Puumala virus lineage in southern Poland
Puumala virus (PUUV) represents one of the most important hantaviruses in Central Europe. Phylogenetic analyses of PUUV strains indicate a strong genetic structuring of this hantavirus. Recently, PUUV sequences were identified in the natural reservoir, the bank vole (Myodes glareolus), collected in the northern part of Poland.

Optimization of storage conditions for Puumala virus based vaccine
We report the effects of storage conditions and human serum albumin addition to the vaccine composition on the immunogenic properties of an experimental vaccine against hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. To obtain an experimental vaccine, the Puumala virus, propagated in Vero cells culture, was concentrated, inactivated with beta-propiolactone, and

Disease burden of Puumala virus infections, 1995–2008 [PDF]
SUMMARYPuumala virus (PUUV) causes mild haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, a rodent-borne zoonosis. To evaluate the disease burden of PUUV infections in Finland, we analysed data reported by laboratories to the National Infectious Disease Registry during 1995–2008 and compared these with data from other national registries (death, 1998–2007 ...
