Full-length sequencing and genomic characterization of Bagaza, Kedougou, and Zika viruses
(2014)Many members of the genus Flavivirus are the agents of important diseases of humans, livestock, and wildlife. Currently, no complete genome sequence is available for the three African viruses, Bagaza, Zika, and Kedougou ... -
Gastrointestinal and hepatic manifestations of COVID‐19: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
(2020-11-21)Background and Aim: This review investigates the role of gastrointestinal and hepatic manifestations in COVID‐19, particularly with regard to the prevalence of isolated gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. Methods: We searched ... -
Gastrointestinal predictors of severe COVID-19: systematic review and meta-analysis
(2020-07-30)Background: COVID-19 pandemic has created a need to identify potential predictors of severe disease. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of gastrointestinal predictors of severe COVID-19. Methods: An extensive ... -
Gastrointestinal symptoms of 95 cases with SARS-CoV-2 infection
(2020-04-02)[Abstract]. Objective: To study the GI symptoms in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infected patients. Design: We analysed epidemiological, demographic, clinical and laboratory data of 95 cases ... -
General practitioner experiences during infectious disease public health crises
(2020-04-14)What is this? The COVID-19 pandemic poses a significant threat to public health. Information on the experiences of general practitioners (GPs) during such infectious disease public health crises may help improve preparedness. ... -
Genetic and Serologic Properties of Zika Virus Associated with an Epidemic, Yap State, Micronesia, 2007
(2014)Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus first isolated in Uganda from a sentinel monkey in 1947. Mosquito and sentinel animal surveillance studies have demonstrated that ZIKV is endemic to Africa and Southeast ... -
Genetic Characterization of Zika Virus Strains: Geographic Expansion of the Asian Lineage
(2014)Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus distributed throughout much of Africa and Asia. Infection with the virus may cause acute febrile illness that clinically resembles dengue fever. A recent study indicated the ... -
Genetic selection of a flavivirus-refractory strain of the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti
(2014)Two inbred (isofemale) Aedes aegypti mosquito lines were derived that manifested a resistant or susceptible phenotype following ingestion of yellow fever virus; lack of virus movement from the midgut defined the resistant ... -
Genomewide Association Study of Severe Covid-19 with Respiratory Failure
(2020-06-17)BACKGROUND: There is considerable variation in disease behavior among patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). Genomewide ... -
Genomic characterization and phylogenetic analysis of SARS‐COV‐2 in Italy
(2020-03-29)This report describes the isolation, molecular characterization, and phylogenetic analysis of the first three complete genomes of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) isolated from three patients ... -
Genomic characterization and phylogenetic analysis of Zika virus circulating in the Americas
(2016-06)The rapid spread and potential link with birth defects have made Zika virus (ZIKV) a global public health problem. The virus was discovered 70years ago, yet the knowledge about its genomic structure and the genetic variations ... -
A Genomic Perspective on the Origin and Emergence of SARS-CoV-2
(2020-03-26)The ongoing pandemic of a new human coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, has generated enormous global concern. We and others in China were involved in the initial genome sequencing of the virus. Herein, we describe what genomic data ... -
German recommendations for critically ill patients with COVID‑19
(2020-04-14)Since December 2019, a novel coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome—coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2) has rapidly spread around the world resulting in an acute respiratory illness pandemic. The majority of patients presents ... -
Getting your workplace ready for COVID-19 How COVID-19 spreads, 19 March 2020
(2020-03-19)When someone who has COVID-19 coughs or exhales they release droplets of infected fluid. Most of these droplets fall on nearby surfaces and objects, such as desks, tables or telephones. People could catch COVID-19 by ... -
A Global Alliance for Zika Virus Control and Prevention – ZIKAlliance
(2016)"ZIKAlliance is a multidisciplinary project with a global ""One Health"" approach, built: on a multi-centric network of clinical cohorts in the Caribbean, Central & South America; research sites in countries where the virus ... -
