Microbiology Spectrum, 2016 ABSTRACT The history of Zika virus disease serves as a paradigm of a typical emerging viral infection. Zika virus disease, a mosquito-borne flavivirus, was first isolated in 1947 in the Zika forest of Uganda. The same virus was also isolated from jungle-dwelling mosquitoes ( Aedes [ Stegomyia

FIGO good practice recommendations on preconception care: A strategy to prevent preterm birth
International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.Abstract Preterm birth (PTB) remains one of the leading causes of neonatal mortality and long‐term morbidity worldwide, with minimal progress being made in reducing its incidence, particularly in low‐resource settings. Preconception care is recognized as an effective strategy for PTB prevention; however, the fact that more than half of pregnancies ...

Clinical Microbiology: Open Access, 2015 Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus) of the family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, transmitted by the bite of infected mosquitoes. ZIKV was first isolated from a non-human primate in 1947, ZIKV infections in humans were sporadic during 60 years before emerging in the Pacific in 2007 and 2013 and in Brazil in 2015.

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...

A new mathematical model for Zika virus transmission
, 2020 We present a new mathematical model for the transmission of Zika virus between humans as well as between humans and mosquitoes. In this way, we use the fractional-order Caputo derivative. The region of the feasibility of system and equilibrium points are
