Mosquito-borne West Nile virus (WNV) infection is benign in most individuals but can cause encephalitis <1% of infected individuals. We show that ∼35% patients hospitalized for WNV disease (WNVD) six independent cohorts from the EU and USA carry auto-Abs neutralizing IFN-α and/or -ω. The prevalence these antibodies highest with (∼40%), silent as low general population. odds ratios WNVD relative to those without them population range 19.0 (95% CI 15.0–24.0, P value <10–15) only...
Abstract Background Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the leading infectious cause of congenital disabilities. We designed a prospective study to investigate rate, outcome, and risk factors CMV (cCMV) infection in neonates born immune women, potential need effectiveness hygiene recommendations this population. Methods The was composed 2 sequential parts: an epidemiology (part 1) prevention 2) study. Performance part depended upon cCMV rate >0.4%. Women enrolled 1 did not receive...
Here, we describe the isolation of a strain genus Pantoea encoding VIM carbapenemase, first to our knowledge. The strain, isolated from rectal swab 10-day-old newborn admitted neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), was identified through whole-genome sequencing analyses as brenneri. harbored carbapenemases gene blaVIM-1. prompt application contact measures and prevented dissemination VIM-producing P. brenneri plasmid carrying VIM-1 other newborns.
