What It Will Take to Avoid a Tripledemic This Winter
Over the coming months, more than 100,000 Americans will likely die, mostly unnecessarily, from respiratory infections. Yes, that is the reality we are now facing this fall and winter—and likely every fall and winter for the foreseeable future. Unless we act. Between flu, COVID-19, and RSV, we are likely looking at a very large number of Americans getting sick, ending up in the hospital, and dying. Most of these Americans will be our most vulnerable: older Americans, the youngest children, and those with chronic diseases. And that number of 100,000 may be an underestimate, given that many of these infections go undet...

Sliding on cortical shell: Biomechanical characterization of the vertebral cannulation for pedicle screw insertion
Characterizing pedicle cannulation enables to predict extra pedicular perforation. Influence of bone mineral density and patient-specific morphology on pedicle cannulation has been highlighted together with a comparison of swine and cadaver models.

Viruses, Vol. 15, Pages 1980: Animal Models for Henipavirus Research
olsey Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are zoonotic paramyxoviruses in the genus Henipavirus (HNV) that emerged nearly thirty years ago. Outbreaks of HeV and NiV have led to severe respiratory disease and encephalitis in humans and animals characterized by a high mortality rate. Despite the grave threat HNVs pose to public health and global biosecurity, no approved medical countermeasures for human use currently exist against HeV or NiV. To develop candidate vaccines and therapeutics and advance the field’s understanding of HNV pathogenesis, animal models of HeV and NiV have been instrumental and ...

Seroimmunotyping of African swine fever virus
The extreme genetic and immunobiological heterogeneity exhibited by the African swine fever virus (ASFV) has been a significant impediment in the development of an efficacious vaccine against this disease. Consequently, the lack of internationally accepted protocols for the laboratory evaluation of candidate vaccines has become a major concern within the scientific community. The formulation of such protocols necessitates the establishment of a consensus at the international level on methods for the determination of homologous and heterologous isolates/strains of ASFV. The present article provides a comprehensive descripti...

The 3' end of the coding region of senecavirus A contains a highly conserved sequence that potentially forms a stem-loop structure required for virus rescue
AbstractSenecavirus A (SVA) can cause a vesicular disease in swine. It is a positive-strand RNA virus belonging to the genusSenecavirus in the familyPicornaviridae. Positive-strand RNA viruses possess positive-sense, single-stranded genomes whose untranslated regions (UTRs) have been reported to containcis-acting RNA elements. In the present study, a total of 100 SVA isolates were comparatively analyzed at the genome level. A highly conserved fragment (HCF) was found to be located in the 3D sequence and to be close to the 3' UTR. The HCF was computationally predicted to form a stem-loop structure. Eight synonymous mutation...

Subsistence swine farming: seroprevalence and risk factors associated with Lawsonia intracellularis infection in the state of Minas Gerais Brazil in 2016
In conclusion, anti-L. intracellularis antibodies were widely dispersed in subsistence pig farming ’s in Minas Gerais, indicating a wide circulation of the agent in this type of production system. The interactions of animals raised close to peri-urban areas, extensively, and close to landfills are risk factors for spread of PPE.

How Wastewater Testing Can Help Tackle America ’ s Opioid Crisis
Among the many lasting legacies of COVID-19 may be a newfound appreciation for the value of what we flush down the toilet and wash down the drain. Wastewater can be a rich source of information about infectious diseases, like COVID-19, as well as flu, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), mpox and polio, since pathogens like viruses are shed in feces, urine and saliva, all of which is drained into sewage treatment plants. Sampling that water is a good way to screen for certain viruses, and, as more people bypass the medical system and labs in favor of testing themselves at home for things like COVID-19, health agencies lik...
