Impact of CD19 CAR T‐Cell Therapy on Pathogen‐Specific Antibody Titers in Lymphoma Patients
Patients with lymphoma undergoing CD19 CAR T‐cell therapy experience prolonged hypogammaglobulinemia and B‐cell aplasia. We investigate its impact on immunity against measles virus (MeV), mumps virus (MuV), rubella virus (RuV), varicella‐zoster virus (VZV), pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide, Haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib), and tetanus toxoid ...

Abstract Background Screening blood donations for HEV RNA mitigates the risk of transfusion‐transmitted HEV infection (TT‐HEV), a recognised blood safety issue in Europe. This study reports the findings of government‐funded HEV RNA blood donation screening 2016–2022 and includes an estimate of residual risk. Method Donation samples were universally and

Enteropathogen antibody dynamics and force of infection among children in low-resource settings. [PDF]
Little is known about enteropathogen seroepidemiology among children in low-resource settings. We measured serological IgG responses to eight enteropathogens (Giardia intestinalis, Cryptosporidium parvum, Entamoeba histolytica, Salmonella enterica ...

Feasibility, drug safety, and effectiveness of etiological treatment programs for Chagas disease in Honduras, Guatemala, and Bolivia: 10-year experience of Médecins Sans Frontières [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis) is a zoonotic or anthropozoonotic disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. Predominantly affecting populations in poor areas of Latin America, medical care for this neglected disease is often

Integrating serological and genetic data to quantify cross-species transmission: brucellosis as a case study [PDF]
Epidemiological data are often fragmented, partial, and/or ambiguous and unable to yield the desired level of understanding of infectious disease dynamics to adequately inform control measures.

Serological screening for cytomegalovirus in a leucodepleted blood supply: A systematic review
Abstract Background and Objectives Cytomegalovirus (CMV) causes harm in at‐risk populations. Selection of seronegative donors has been used to prevent transmission. Leucodepletion reduces the potential for CMV transmission; however, the residual risk is uncertain, leading to variability in practice.

A Metapopulation Model for Chikungunya Including Populations Mobility on a Large-Scale Network
In this work we study the influence of populations mobility on the spread of a vector-borne disease. We focus on the chikungunya epidemic event that occurred in 2005-2006 on the R\'eunion Island, Indian Ocean, France, and validate our models with real ...
