Weighted prevalence and associated risk factors of hepatitis E virus antibodies among pregnant women in rural Burkina Faso using dried blood spot samples

Hepatology Research, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 795-806, June 2025.
Abstract Aim To estimate the weighted prevalence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) antibodies and risk factors among pregnant women in Burkina Faso and to evaluate the efficiency of dried blood spots (DBS) in detecting HEV antibodies. Methods We first evaluated the efficiency of DBS detecting HEV antibodies by comparing 62 DBS with matched serum samples using

Seroprevalence and Placental Transfer of Zika and Dengue Virus Antibodies in Postpartum Women in Southeast Brazil

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Zika (ZIKV) and dengue (DENV) viruses are major public health concerns in Brazil. Understanding population serological status, particularly in pregnant women, is vital for estimating their spread. This study assessed ZIKV and DENV seroprevalence in pregnant women and the transplacental transfer of antibodies to their newborns, crucial for ...

Seroepidemiological study of Helicobacter pylori infection in infancy. [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 1996
The incidence of Helicobacter pylori infection in very young children was determined, based on the emergence of specific IgG antibodies in sequential serum samples from birth to 2 years of age. The risk of acquiring H pylori infection in infancy as a result of maternal exposure to the organism was also assessed, based on the determination of maternal ...
