Rationale for Recommending Varicella Vaccination Into the Swedish National Immunisation Programme

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Under Swedish law, a vaccination may be included in the National Immunisation Programme (NIP) if it effectively prevents transmission in the population, is cost‐effective and aligns with ethical and humanitarian principles. The Public Health Agency of Sweden (PHAS) evaluated these criteria for introducing varicella vaccination. Methods The

Reassortant Group A Rotavirus from Straw-colored Fruit Bat (Eidolon helvum)

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
Bats are known reservoirs of viral zoonoses. We report genetic characterization of a bat rotavirus (Bat/KE4852/07) detected in the feces of a straw-colored fruit bat (Eidolon helvum). Six bat rotavirus genes (viral protein [VP] 2, VP6, VP7, nonstructural

Rotaviruses as Neonatal Vaccine Expression Vectors against Other Enteric Pathogens

Proceedings, 2020
Although the incidence of rotavirus diarrheal disease has been reduced by the introduction of neonatal rotavirus vaccines, other enteric viruses—including norovirus, hepatitis E virus (HEV), and astrovirus—remain significant causes of illness.

Treosulfan–fludarabine conditioning in infants with severe combined immunodeficiencies: Extended study of the UK paediatric treosulfan study

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative therapy for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Conditioning improves donor engraftment and freedom from immunoglobulin replacement (IgR) but increases the risks of acute and late toxicity. Treosulfan, a reduced toxicity alkylating agent, has emerged as an alternative

Quantifying health risks in wastewater irrigation [PDF]

, 2008
The guidelines developed by the World Health Organization for the safe use of wastewater in agriculture are based on a tolerable additional disease burden of 10-6 disability-adjusted life year loss per person per year, equivalent to rotavirus disease and

Analysis of genetic diversity and molecular evolution of human group B rotaviruses based on whole genome segments [PDF]

, 2010
Group B rotavirus (GBR) is a rare enteric pathogen that causes severe diarrhoea, primarily in adults. Nearly full-length sequences of all 11 RNA segments were determined for human GBRs detected recently in India (IDH-084 in 2007, IC-008 in 2008 ...

Duodenal stricture and portal gas accumulation secondary to ulcerative, fibronecrotising duodenitis in a foal

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Gastroduodenal ulcer disease with secondary stricture formation of the proximal duodenum and portal gas accumulation is described in a neonatal foal. Conventional diagnostics were performed to reach a diagnosis, including gastroscopy, ultrasonography and positive contrast radiography. In addition, a post‐mortem CT was acquired with the contrast

Assignment of the group A rotavirus NSP4 gene into genotypes using a hemi-nested multiplex PCR assay: a rapid and reproducible assay for strain surveillance studies [PDF]

, 2009
The rotavirus non-structural protein NSP4 has been implicated in a number of biological functions during the rotavirus cellular cycle and pathogenesis, and has been addressed as a target for vaccine development. The NSP4 gene has been classified into six
