Background By mid-September 2023, several event notifications related to cryptosporidiosis had been identified from different regions in Spain. Therefore, a request for urgent notification of cases the National Surveillance Network was launched. Aim We aimed at assessing extent increase cases, epidemiological characteristics and transmission modes compared previous years. Methods analysed data on case notifications, outbreak reports genotypes focusing June–October 2023 results 2016–2022....
Abstract Background With various infectious disease risks to passenger ship travellers, guidance for prevention, mitigation and management (PMM) exists. Emerging infections emergencies necessitate updated, context-specific guidelines practices. New evidence infection PMM must be translated into governmental authorities the industry. Under European HEALTHY SAILING project, we conducted a scoping review of publications in PubMed, Scopus grey literature scientific articles, regulations,...
BackgroundAfter a national lockdown during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic in Spain, regional governments implemented different non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) second wave.AimTo analyse which NPIs significantly impacted effective reproduction number (Rt) seven Spanish provinces 30 August 2020-31 January 2021.MethodsWe coded each NPI and levels stringency with 'severity index' (SI) computed global SI (mean SIs per six included interventions). We performed Bayesian change point...
Abstract Background A unique policy of perimeter closures Basic Health Zones (small administrative health units) was implemented in the Autonomous Community Madrid from September 21st 2020 to May 23rd 2021 face COVID-19 pandemic. Aim To assess impact local confinements on 14-days cumulative incidence SARS-CoV-2 during second wave pandemic Madrid, Spain. Methods We compare errors estimation two families mathematical models: ones that include as explanatory covariables and do not, search a...
Introducción: Las enfermedades transmitidas por alimentos y agua tienen gran potencial para originar brotes afectar a un número elevado de individuos en diversos ámbitos, lo que ocasiona problemas salud pública. Método: Se analizó la base datos del Sistema Brotes Red Nacional Vigilancia Epidemiológica (RENAVE) durante el periodo 2018-2022, se seleccionaron los transmisión alimentaria. Resultados: En año 2022 notificaron 612 brotes, superior 313 2021 similar 2018 2019. El agente etiológico...
Human mobility drives the geographical diffusion of infectious diseases at different scales, but few studies focus on itself. Using publicly available data from Spain, we define a Mobility Matrix that captures constant flows between provinces by using distance-like measure effective distance to build network model with 52 and 135 relevant edges. Madrid, Valladolid Araba/Álaba are most nodes in terms degree strength. The shortest routes (most likely path two points) all calculated. A total 7...

Botulism is a low incidence but potentially fatal infectious disease caused by neurotoxins produced mainly Clostridium botulinum. There are different routes of acquisition, food-borne and infant/intestinal being the most frequent presentation, antitoxin treatment choice in all cases. In Spain, botulism under surveillance, case reporting mandatory.This retrospective study attempts to provide more complete picture epidemiology Spain from 1997 2019 an assessment treatment, including...
We compared the cumulative incidence and characteristics of hepatitis A outbreaks in two groups Spanish autonomous regions according to whether a universal or risk group vaccination strategy was followed. Outbreaks between 2010 2018 were analyzed. The rate estimated by estimating ratio (RR). those first cases compared. Adjusted OR (aOR) calculated using multivariate logistic regression model. Outbreak 16.04 per million persons with 20.76 risk-group (RR 0.77; 95%CI 0.62-0.94). Imported...
Background Hepatitis E, a viral hepatitis caused mainly by the ingestion of raw or undercooked food, is not notifiable disease in Spain. Aim To analyse temporal trends, epidemiological characteristics and factors associated with severe from E hospitalisations Spain 1997 to 2019. Methods Hospitalisation records were obtained Spanish National Hospital Discharge Database. Temporal trends seasonality analysed Poisson regression years 1997–2015 2016–19, given changes hospital discharge databases....
Abstract Human mobility drives geographical diffusion of airborne infectious diseases at different scales. During the COVID-19 pandemic data was made available and has been widely used, but few studies focus on itself. We used public from February 14th 2020, to May 9th 2021, in Spain characterize patterns study phenomena using network science methods. With 135 (out 2.264) connections 52 provinces Spain, a weighted, directed built: Epidemic Diffusion Network (EDN). Centrality measures (degree...
