Japanese viral encephalitis [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2002
AbstractOne of the leading causes of acute encephalopathy in children in the tropics is Japanese encephalitis (JE). Transmitted by the culex mosquito, this neurotropic virus predominately affects the thalamus, anterior horns of the spinal cord, cerebral cortex, and cerebellum. It mainly affects children <15 years and is mostly asymptomatic.

Viral Encephalitis and Epilepsy [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2008
Summary Viral encephalitis presents with seizures not only in the acute stage but also increases the risk of late unprovoked seizures and epilepsy. Acute symptomatic and late unprovoked seizures in different viral encephalitides are reviewed here. Among the sporadic viral encephalitides, Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) is perhaps most frequently ...

Phylogeography of Japanese encephalitis virus:genotype is associated with climate [PDF]

, 2013
The circulation of vector-borne zoonotic viruses is largely determined by the overlap in the geographical distributions of virus-competent vectors and reservoir hosts.

Viral Encephalitis [PDF]

Journal of Neurocritical Care, 2014
Viral encephalitis refers to acute inflammatory process of brain parenchyma caused by viral agents. Viruses are known to be the most common infectious agents associated with acute encephalitis. Acute neurologic manifestations in viral encephalitis are diverse, including fever, headache, abnormal behaviors, altered consciousness, seizure, and focal or ...

Modeling viral infectious diseases and development of antiviral therapies using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived systems [PDF]

, 2015
The recent biotechnology breakthrough of cell reprogramming and generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which has revolutionized the approaches to study the mechanisms of human diseases and to test new drugs, can be exploited to generate ...

Differential in vitro infection of neural cells by astroviruses [PDF]

, 2019
Encephalitis remains a diagnostic conundrum in humans as over 50% of cases are managed without the identification of an etiology. Astroviruses have been detected from the central nervous system of mammals in association with disease, suggesting that this

Culex tarsalis is a competent vector species for Cache Valley virus [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Cache Valley virus (CVV) is a mosquito-borne orthobunyavirus endemic in North America. The virus is an important agricultural pathogen leading to abortion and embryonic lethality in ruminant species, especially sheep.

Viral encephalitis [PDF]

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2013
While systemic viral infections are exceptionally common, symptomatic viral infections of the brain parenchyma itself are very rare, but a serious neurologic condition. It is estimated that viral encephalitis occurs at a rate of 1.4 cases per 100.000 inhabitants. Geography is a major determinant of encephalitis caused by vector-borne pathogens.
