Long non-coding RNAs ANRIL, THRIL, and NEAT1 as potential circulating biomarkers of SARS-CoV-2 infection and disease severity
In conclusion, the expression levels of the lncRNAs ANRIL and THRIL are correlated with the severity of COVID-19 and can be regarded as circulating biomarkers for disease progression.PMID:37657511 | DOI:10.1016/j.virusres.2023.199214

Air-water exchange and risk assessment of phthalic acid esters during the early phase of COVID-19 pandemic in tropical riverine catchments of India
Chemosphere. 2023 Aug 30:140013. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGiven the increased load of waste plastic in the solid waste stream after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we investigated the fate of selected plastic additives along open burning dumps, industrial and residential transects in tropical riverine catchments of India. Polyurethane foam disk passive air samples, surface water and community stored water (CSW) samples were collected along the Adyar River (AR), Cooum River (CR) and canals in Chennai and Daman Ganga River (DG) in Vapi.

Relationship of Salmonella isolation with different serum and inflammatory intestinal parameters in natural fowl typhoid outbreaks from laying hens
Comp Immunol Microbiol Infect Dis. 2023 Aug 27;101:102055. doi: 10.1016/j.cimid.2023.102055. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOur study was undertaken to determine the best samples and selective-differential plating media to be used for Salmonella spp. isolation. We also compared hematological and serum biochemical values, Salmonella biovar Gallinarum (SG) detection (isolation and serological test), and inflammatory intestinal response (fecal leukocyte) in laying hens with naturally occurring fowl typhoid outbreaks. Furthermore, we looked for a biomarker of SG infection. Spleen, liver, ovarian follicle content, and bone marr...

Epidemiological and molecular characterization of Coxsackievirus A6 causing hand, foot, and mouth disease in the Philippines, 2012-2017
This study elucidated that CVA6 was the most prevalent enterovirus serotype causing HFMD in the Philippines in 2012-2017, with genotype D3b/RF-A circulating within this period. This study highlights the importance of viral surveillance and molecular epidemiological analysis to broaden our understanding of HFMD in the Philippines.PMID:37657679 | DOI:10.1016/j.meegid.2023.105498

The same genotype of Sarcocystis neurona responsible for mass mortality in marine mammals induced a clinical outbreak in raccoons (Procyon lotor) 10 years later
This study reports the following new genotyping markers at 18S rRNA, 28S rRNA, COX1, ITS-1, RON1, RON2, GAPDH1, ROP20, SAG2, SnSRS21 and TUBA1 markers. The identity of Sarcocystis spp. infecting raccoons is discussed.PMID:37652223 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijpara.2023.08.001

Outbreak of Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis - Kansas, 2021-2022
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 Sep 1;72(35):957-960. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7235a4.ABSTRACTAn outbreak of multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) involved 13 persons in four households in a low-income, under-resourced urban Kansas community during November 2021-November 2022. A majority of the seven adults identified in the Kansas outbreak were born outside the United States in a country that had experienced an MDR TB outbreak with the same genotype during 2007-2009, whereas most of the six children in the Kansas outbreak were U.S.-born. Prompt identification, evaluation, and treatment of persons with MDR TB and their c...

Possible Exposures Among Mpox Patients Without Reported Male-to-Male Sexual Contact - Six U.S. Jurisdictions, November 1-December 14, 2022
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 Sep 1;72(35):944-948. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7235a2.ABSTRACTThe extent to which the 2022 mpox outbreak has affected persons without a recent history of male-to-male sexual contact (MMSC) is not well understood. During November 1-December 14, 2022, CDC partnered with six jurisdictional health departments to characterize possible exposures among mpox patients aged ≥18 years who did not report MMSC during the 3 weeks preceding symptom onset. Among 52 patients included in the analysis, 14 (27%) had a known exposure to a person with mpox, including sexual activity and other close intimate contact...

Lessons learned from the successful polio vaccine experience not learned or applied with the development and implementation of the COVID-19 vaccines
Curr Opin Immunol. 2023 Aug 29;84:102386. doi: 10.1016/j.coi.2023.102386. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe eradication of polio during the latter half of the 20th century can be considered one of the greatest medical triumphs in history. This achievement can be attributed to the development of vaccines that received the public's almost unwavering acceptance of them, especially by parents who had been waiting/hoping for a medical breakthrough that would ensure that their children would not succumb to the devastating effects of infantile paralysis. Sixty years later, the worldwide population was now confronted with an equal...

Lessons Learned From Contact Tracing During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Public Health Students' Experiences in the Field
This study employed a qualitative thematic approach to capture 11 graduate-level public health students' experiences, motivations, challenges, and recommendations on contact tracing procedures as DOH contract tracers. In-depth interview questions focused on students' interest in public health, experiences as a contact tracer, patient/case interactions, and personal outlook on the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic brought new experiences and challenges for public health students employed by local health departments as contact tracers. Three categories and subthemes emerged from interviews: (1) motivations to work as ...
