Life Course Malaria Exposure and SARS‐CoV‐2 Seroepidemiology in Ugandan Adolescents: A Longitudinal Study Nested in a Birth Cohort

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background COVID‐19 has had major global health impacts, yet reported morbidity and mortality have been lower in Africa despite serological evidence of widespread infection. Malaria has been proposed as a potential modifier of susceptibility to and outcomes of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Actual seroprevalence and estimated seroprevalence by the three catalytic models.

, 2013
The scatter plot represents age-specific seroprevalence determined by serologic testing (see methods section). The solid, dashed, and dotted line are estimated seroprevalence curves using the constant, Weibull, and cubic B-spline models, respectively.

Recombinant LPG3 Protein From Leishmania chagasi as an Antigen for the Diagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Seroprevalence of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa–associated Polyomavirus

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
We identified a new polyomavirus in skin lesions from a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS). Apart from TS being an extremely rare disease, little is known of its epidemiology. On the basis of knowledge regarding other polyomaviruses, we anticipated that infections with trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus (TSV) occur frequently ...

Impact of delayed blood donation sample processing and testing on SARS‐CoV‐2 serological assay results in an evolving pandemic response

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The two largest US blood collection organizations led a multiphased, multicenter nationwide SARS‐CoV‐2 blood donor‐based serosurveillance program. The potential impact of delayed sample processing and prolonged refrigerated or frozen storage on anti‐SARS‐CoV‐2 antibody detection was investigated.

Crimean‐Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus Exposure in Horses and Donkeys in Border Livestock Markets of Nigeria

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick‐borne zoonotic pathogen of major public health importance in Africa. Although CCHFV exposure has been reported in several livestock species in Nigeria, data on equids remain limited despite their extensive involvement in livestock movement and trade.
