Few studies have prospectively assessed SARS-CoV-2 community infection in children aged 0 to 4 years. Information about incidence and clinical virological features young could help guide prevention mitigation strategies.To assess incidence, features, symptoms a prospective household cohort compare viral load by age group, symptoms, lineage children, older adults.This study enrolled 690 participants from 175 Maryland households with 1 or more years between November 24, 2020, October 15, 2021....
Genomic surveillance of monkeypox virus (MPXV) during the 2022 outbreak has been mainly focused on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) changes. DNA viruses, including MPXV, have a lower SNP mutation rate than RNA viruses due to higher fidelity replication machinery. We identified large genomic rearrangement in MPXV sequence from case state Minnesota (MN), USA, an abnormal, uneven read mapping coverage profile whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data. further screened WGS data 206 U.S. samples and...
Genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 is crucial for detecting emerging variants and informing public health responses. Various sequencing technologies are used whole genome SARS-CoV-2. This cross-platform benchmark study applied established bioinformatics tools to assess improve the performance Illumina NovaSeq, Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION, Pacific Biosciences Sequel II platforms in identifying lineage assignment. NovaSeq produced highest number reads bases, depth coverage,...
Histidine-rich protein 2 (HRP2) detecting rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) have played an important role in enabling prompt malaria diagnosis remote locations. However, emergence of pfhrp2 deleted parasites is threatening the efficacy RDTs, and World Health Organization (WHO) has highlighted surveillance these deletions as a priority. Nested PCR used to confirm deletion but costly laborious. Due spurious amplification paralogue pfhrp3, identity nested exon 1 product must be confirmed by...

ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis and faecium are frequent causes of healthcare-associated infections. Antimicrobial-resistant enterococci pose a serious public health threat, particularly vancomycin-resistant (VRE), for which treatment options limited. The Centers Disease Control Prevention’s Division Healthcare Quality Promotion Sentinel Surveillance system conducted surveillance from 2018 to 2019 evaluate antimicrobial susceptibility profiles molecular epidemiology 205 E. 180 clinical...
Households are common places for spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We investigated factors associated with household transmission and acquisition SARS-CoV-2. children age <18 years were enrolled into prospective, longitudinal cohorts followed from August 2020 to 2021 in Utah, September New York City, November October Maryland. Participants self-collected nasal swabs weekly onset illness. Swabs tested SARS-CoV-2 using reverse transcription polymerase...
