Stochastic modelling of the biodiversity effect on sin nombre virus (SNV) prevalence [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2020
The deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus, is one of the carriers for the Sin Nombre Virus (SNV). Contact with the SNV infected mice’s saliva, urea or excreta may cause fatal disease among humans. In this paper, the study analyzed the biodiversity effect on the SNV prevalence in the deer mouse population from a stochastic perspective.

SEASONAL VARIATION IN SIN NOMBRE VIRUS INFECTIONS IN DEER MICE: PRELIMINARY RESULTS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Wildlife Diseases, 2009
The proportion of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) with recently acquired Sin Nombre virus (SNV) infections is an indicator of epizootic intensity and may be key in predicting outbreaks of hantavirus cardio-pulmonary syndrome in humans. We investigated whether incidence of recent infections was related to season, sex, reproductive status, or habitat ...

Beyond the Kidney and Lung: Cutaneous and Mucosal Clues to Human Hantavirus Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Rodent exposure and aerosolized excreta can lead to hantavirus infection with systemic endothelial injury and capillary leak, resulting in thrombocytopenia and syndromes such as HPS/HCPS and HFRS/NE. Early dermatologic and mucosal findings, including flushing, conjunctival injection, petechiae/purpura, and mucosal bleeding, may provide important clues ...

Neutralizing Antibodies in Survivors of Sin Nombre and Andes Hantavirus Infection

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
We evaluated titers of homotypic and heterotypic neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) to Andes and Sin Nombre hantaviruses in plasma samples from 20 patients from Chile and the United States. All but 1 patient had high titers of NAb. None of the plasma samples

Ecological and Individual‐Level Factors Associated With Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome Notifications and in‐Hospital Mortality Among Hospitalized Patients in Chile, 2005–2022

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) is a severe zoonotic disease caused by Orthohantavirus andesense (Andes virus, ANDV), with significant public health burden in Chile. Despite decades of surveillance, knowledge gaps remain regarding the ecological drivers of notification burden and the individual‐level determinants of in ...

Preclinical evaluation of a fully human, quadrivalent-hantavirus polyclonal antibody derived from a non-human source

open access: yesmBio
Hantaviruses are rodent-borne viruses that cause severe disease in infected humans. In the New World, major hantaviruses include Andes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) causing hantavirus pulmonary syndrome.
