Unveiling the impacts of land use on the phylogeography of zoonotic New World Hantaviruses

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2024, Issue 10, October 2024.
Billions of genomic sequences and records of species occurrence are available in public repositories (e.g. National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility, GBIF). By implementing analytical tools from different scientific disciplines, data mining these databases can aid in the global surveillance of ...

Clinical and etiological characteristics of severe hemorrhagic fever caused by coinfection of hantaan orthohantavirus and severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) usually have different infection routes, and coinfection is relatively rare. This study examines the clinical and etiological characteristics of coinfection by these two pathogens to provide important references for clinical diagnosis and ...

Citizens envisioning life in 2040: A qualitative corporate foresight study in London

open access: yesFUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 6, Issue 2, June 2024.
Abstract Urban living is changing. Citizens explore new lifestyles in practice and envision alternative urban futures. Companies, as significant stakeholders in cities, are building urban infrastructure and serving citizens' needs. To succeed in the future, companies must be able to navigate the complexity and diversity of evolving cities.

Distribution and genetic heterogeneity of Puumala virus in Sweden

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 1996
Small mammals trapped in Sweden were analysed for specific antibody responses against three hantavirus serotypes and for the presence of viral antigen. To determine the genetic identity of viral RNA in lungs of seropositive bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus), polymerase chain reactions and subsequent partial sequencing of both the M and S segments ...

Genomic signatures of climate adaptation in bank voles

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
We investigated adaptive differences in 12 bank vole populations across Europe in conjunction with geographic climate variation. We used multiple genotype‐environment associations, found that mean annual temperature was a shaping factor, and identified signatures of selection in candidate genes related to lipid metabolism and the immune system.

Puumala Virus Infections in Finland: Increased Occupational Risk for Farmers [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Epidemiology, 1999
Puumala hantavirus, transmitted by bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus), causes a mild-type hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. The disease is common in Finland and is considered an occupational hazard for farmers, but the actual risk has not been assessed by analytical studies.

Small mammal community composition impacts bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) population dynamics and associated seroprevalence of Puumala orthohantavirus

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 52-65, January 2024.
Using network analysis, the aim of this study was to identify the direct and indirect pathways in which pathogen prevalence (here Puumala orthohantavirus [PUUV] in bank voles) can be influenced by the composition of the small mammal community. We show that direct interspecific competition with the main antagonist species group (Apodemus spp.) is the ...

Development of a Bioaerosol Sampling Method for Airborne Pathogen Detection with Focus on SARS‐CoV‐2

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
As worldwide evidence shows that the predominant transmission route of SARS‐CoV‐2 and other respiratory pathogens is airborne, the need for suitable methods for the sampling of bioparticles directly from the air is more urgent than ever. The present paper describes the development of a method for the collection of biological aerosols, using a ...

Determination of Procalcitonin Levels in Patients with Nephropathia Epidemica - A Useful Tool or an Unnecessary Diagnostic Procedure?

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2015
Background/Aims: Puumala virus causes nephropathia epidemica (NE), a milder form of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome that occurs in Central and Northern Europe. Several studies have sought to identify risk factors for severe NE.
