Photodegradation of commercial insect repellents containing DEET and IR‐3535 under ultraviolet light associated or not with chemical ultraviolet filters evaluated by Raman spectroscopy

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the photodegradation of commercial insect repellents containing DEET and IR‐3535 under UV‐A and UV‐B irradiation using Raman spectroscopy. Pure DEET and IR‐3535 showed intrinsic photostability, whereas DEET diluted in ethanol and a commercial DEET‐based formulation exhibited significant spectral changes after UV exposure.

The Comparative Effectiveness of Vector Control Approaches for Dengue: A Systematic Review and Multilevel Network Meta‐Analysis

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dengue vector control plays an important role in reducing the burden of dengue infection. Conventional meta‐analysis can only include interventions that can be directly compared. Hence, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of all interventions for dengue vector control directly and indirectly through a multilevel Bayesian ...

Searching for the best real-time RT-PCRs to detect Zika virus infections: the importance of comparing several protocols

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2018
Clinical manifestations of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya virus infections are very similar, making it difficult to reach a diagnosis based only on clinical grounds.

Virus‐specific alterations in placental structure and transporter expression following maternal arbovirus infection

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Arboviruses induce virus‐specific alterations in placental structure and functional markers. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) exposure was associated with reduced syncytiotrophoblast and syncytial knot areas, increased cytotrophoblast proliferation (Ki‐67) and thyroid transporter (MCT8) expression, reduced protective (P‐gp and BCRP ...

Polyomavirus Drives Cerebellar Lesions in AIDS Monkeys With Ataxia

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2026.
Chronic SIV‐infected macaques with ataxia develop severe cerebellar lesions driven by simian polyomavirus 40 (SV40) infection. SV40 preferentially infects cerebellar granule cells, inducing pyroptosis and an aberrant proliferative state. Pyroptotic neuronal injury promotes microglial recruitment and activation, amplifying local neuroinflammation and ...

High Infection Rates for Adult Macaques after Intravaginal or Intrarectal Inoculation with Zika Virus

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
Unprotected sexual intercourse between persons residing in or traveling from regions with Zika virus transmission is a risk factor for infection. To model risk for infection after sexual intercourse, we inoculated rhesus and cynomolgus macaques with Zika

The Role of Astrocytes in the Inflammatory Response in Neurodiseases

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2026.
Reactive astrocyte‐mediated pathogenic mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases Schematic representation of key astrocytic pathways contributing to pathology in the pathogenesis of AD, PD, ALS, and HD. In AD, astrocytes exhibit Aβ plaque‐associated activation characterized by GFAP/S100β upregulation, accompanied by impaired EAAT2‐mediated glutamate ...

Mapping the Evidence for Oropouche Virus to Inform Research Prioritisation

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropouche virus (OROV) infection has gained increasing public health attention due to the ongoing outbreaks in South and Central America. The World Health Organisation (WHO) lists OROV as a priority pathogen for epidemic and pandemic preparedness.
