Rubella epidemiology in the Central African Republic, 2015-2016 and molecular characterization of virus strains from 2008-2016

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2022
Purpose: The Central African Republic (CAF) has not yet introduced immunization against rubella in its national immunization program. In addition, neither rubella nor congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) are integrated into the epidemiological surveillance ...

Improving sensitivity of oral fluid testing in IgG prevalence studies: application of mixture models to a rubella antibody survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A method for the analysis of age-stratified antibody prevalence surveys is applied to a previously reported survey of antibody to rubella virus using oral fluid samples in which the sensitivity of the assay used was shown to be compromised.

Transposable elements drive rapid phenotypic variation in Capsella rubella

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance The mechanisms underlying rapid adaptation to changing environments in species with reduced genetic variation, referred to as the “genetic paradox of invasion,” are unknown.

Seroprevalence of rubella virus antibodies among pregnant women in the Center and South-West regions of Cameroon.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Rubella infection in early pregnancy can lead to miscarriages, fetal death, or birth of an infant with congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). In Cameroon, like in many developing countries, rubella surveillance is not well-established.

A case-control study of autism and mumps-measles-rubella vaccination using the general practice research database: design and methodology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
BACKGROUND: An association between mumps-measles-rubella (MMR) vaccination and the onset of symptoms typical of autism has recently been suggested. This has led to considerable concern about the safety of the vaccine.

Cost-effectiveness of measles and rubella elimination in low-income and middle-income countries. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
BACKGROUND: Since 2000, the incidence of measles and rubella has declined as measles-rubella (MR) vaccine coverage increased due to intensified routine immunisation (RI) and supplementary immunisation activities (SIAs).

Rubella immunity among pregnant women aged 15–44 years, Namibia, 2010

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2016
Background: The level of rubella susceptibility among women of reproductive age in Namibia is unknown. Documenting the risk of rubella will help estimate the potential burden of disease in Namibian women and the risk of congenital rubella syndrome (CRS ...

Case based rubella surveillance in Abia State, South East Nigeria, 2007–2011 [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2014
Introduction. Rubella infection has the potential of causing severe fetal birth defects collectively called congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) if the mother is infected early in pregnancy.

Rubella Virus Infection, the Congenital Rubella Syndrome, and the Link to Autism

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2019
Rubella is a systemic virus infection that is usually mild. It can, however, cause severe birth defects known as the congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) when infection occurs early in pregnancy.

Rubella epidemiology in the Central African Republic, 2015-2016 and molecular characterization of virus strains from 2008-2016

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021
Objectives: Rubella cases in the Central African Republic (CAF) are currently identified during measles surveillance. This study aimed to investigate rubella epidemiology between 2015 and 2016 and to provide baseline genotype data for monitoring future ...
