The 2017-2018 yellow fever virus (YFV) outbreak in southeastern Brazil marked a reemergence of YFV urban states that had been YFV-free for nearly century. Unlike earlier transmission, this epidemic was driven by forest mosquitoes. objective study to evaluate environmental drivers outbreak.Using surveillance data from the Brazilian Ministry Health on human and non-human primate (NHP) cases YFV, we traced spatiotemporal progression outbreak. We then assessed timing relation drought using...
Detection of Leptospira by PCR had not yet been described in snakes. This study investigated, microscopic agglutination test (MAT) and PCR, the presence antibodies to spp. spp., respectively, venomous non-venomous wildlife captivity All snakes were divided into three groups be compared: Group 1 (wildlife - WS); 2 (snakes intensive IC), 3 (collective semi-extensive -CC). Of 147 studied, 52 (35.4%) positive for leptospirosis MAT, 8 (15.4%) belonging (WS), 34 (65.4%) (IC) 10 (19.2%) (CC)....
Contact tracing is a core strategy for preventing the spread of many infectious diseases public health concern. Better understanding outcomes contact COVID-19 as well operational opportunities and challenges in establishing program jurisdiction large New York City (NYC) important evaluation this strategy.To describe establishment, scaling, maintenance Trace, NYC's program, share data on during its first 17 months.This cross-sectional study included people with laboratory test-confirmed...
The venom of Bothrops jararaca is composed complex mixture molecules, mainly lectins, metalloproteinases, serinoproteinases, desintegrins, phospholipases, and peptides. This composition may vary according to the snake's age, gender, region origin. aim was determine individual variation in Botucatu region, Sao Paulo State, Brazil, by means enzymatic, biochemical, pharmacological characterization, utilizing vitro tests biological assays. activities were compared with those Brazilian Reference...
Abstract Keeping snakes in captivity to produce venom for scientific research and production of inputs is now a worldwide practice. Maintaining involves capture, infrastructure investments, management techniques, appropriate qualified personnel. Further, the success project requires knowledge habitat, nutrition, reproduction, control opportunistic infections. This study evaluated three types (quarantine, intensive, semiextensive) diagnosed bacterial fungal contaminants. A bacteriological...
