- 1From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedMolecular Pathogenesis of Virus Infections Paul Digard, Anthony A. Nash, and Richard E. Randall, editors Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, United Kingdom, 2005 ISBN: 0-52-183248-9 Pages: 358, Price: US $125.00...
- 2From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedProspective surveillance for influenza was performed during the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. Oseltamivir was administered to patients with influenzalike illness and confirmed influenza, while their close contacts...
- 3From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedWe 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...
- 4From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedWe report a case of ocular vaccinia infection in an unvaccinated laboratory worker. The patient was infected by a unique strain used in an experiment performed partly outside a biosafety cabinet. Vaccination should...
- 5From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedSapovirus was detected in 7 of 95 stool specimens from children with gastroenteritis of unknown etiology in Sydney, Australia, from August 2001 to August 2002 and from February 2004 to August 2004, by using reverse...
- 6From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedTo the Editor: Bertiella is a genus of tapeworm in the family Anoplocephalidae, many species of which exist as parasites of nonhuman primates. Two species of the genus, Bertielht studeri and B. mucronata, can infect...
- 7From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedRecent outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza in Asia and associated human infections have led to a heightened level of awareness and preparation for a possible influenza pandemic. Vaccination is the best option...
- 8From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedSince global availability of vaccine and antiviral agents against influenza caused by novel human subtypes is insufficient, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends nonpharmaceutical public health interventions to...
- 9From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThree worldwide (pandemic) outbreaks of influenza occurred in the 20th century: in 1918, 1957, and 1968. The latter 2 were in the era of modern virology and most thoroughly characterized. All 3 have been informally...
- 10From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedWe report a novel parvovirus (PARV4) and related variants in pooled human plasma used in the manufacture of plasma-derived medical products. Viral DNA was detected by using highly selective polymerase chain reaction...
- 11From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedWe used a regression model to examine the impact of influenza on death rates in tropical Singapore for the period 1996-2003. Influenza A (H3N2) was the predominant circulating influenza virus subtype, with consistently...
- 12From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe 1918 influenza pandemic has shaped research and public health for nearly a century. In 1976, the specter of 1918 loomed large when a pandemic threatened the country again. Public health officials initiated a mass...
- 13From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedIn 1976, 2 recruits at Fort Dix, New Jersey, had an influenzalike illness. Isolates of virus taken from them included A/New Jersey/76 (Hsw1n1), a strain similar to the virus believed at the time to be the cause of the...
- 14From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAlthough influenza causes more hospitalizations and deaths among American children than any other vaccine-preventable disease, deriving accurate population-based estimates of disease impact is challenging. Using 2...
- 15From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedTo the Editor: Helicobacter pylori has been classified as a carcinogenic pathogen. Its prevalence is high in developing countries. Apart from the known gastrointestinal pathologic changes caused by this organism, reports...
- 16From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedGiven the potential fer laboratory-associated severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infections, we must know which cell lines are susceptible to the virus. We investigated 21 cell lines...
- 17From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedTo the Editor: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) Beijing genotype is spread throughout the world, and the highest prevalence has been detected in Asia and Eurasia. In western Europe, the prevalence of Beijing strains is...
- 18From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe World Health Organization's recommended pandemic influenza interventions, based on limited data, vary by transmission pattern, pandemic phase, and illness severity and extent. In the pandemic alert period,...
- 19From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedTwo Canadian urban areas received travelers with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) before the World Health Organization issued its alert. By July 2003, Vancouver had identified 5 cases (4 imported); Toronto...
- 20From: Emerging Infectious Diseases. (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedWe used a single equation with discrete phases to fit the daily cumulative case data from the 2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome outbreak in Toronto. This model enabled us to estimate turning points and case numbers...
