Dengue: Especialista da Mayo Clinic explica a infecção transmitida por mosquitos
Cerca de metade da população mundial vive em zonas vulneráveis a dengue, uma infecção viral potencialmente fatal transmitida através das picadas de mosquitos infectados. Não há tratamento, e apenas as pessoas que já tiveram dengue são elegíveis para a vacina.
Dengue: Experta de Mayo Clinic explica la infección transmitida por mosquitos
Aproximadamente la mitad de la población mundial vive en zonas vulnerables a dengue, una infección viral potencialmente mortal transmitida a través de las picaduras de mosquitos infectados. No hay tratamiento, y solo las personas que ya han tenido dengue son elegibles para la vacuna.
Can artificial intelligence predict spatiotemporal distribution of dengue fever outbreaks with remote sensing data? New study finds answers
Outbreaks of zoonotic diseases, which are those transmitted from animals to humans, are globally on the rise owing to climate change.
Mapping Mexico’s Dengue Fever Hotspots
Ubydul Haque, an assistant professor of global health at the Rutgers Global Health Institute, has analyzed data from Mexico’s Ministry of Health to identify dengue fever hotspots. Working with epidemiologists at the University of North Texas and Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León, the team calculated environmental and socioeconomic risk factors and mapped areas where severe outbreaks occur.
LJI Instructor Annie Elong Ngono, Ph.D., wins GVN support to advance infectious disease research
LJI Instructor Annie Elong Ngono, Ph.D., has spearheaded important studies into the immune response to deadly pathogens such as dengue virus. Now, this dedication to global health and virology has earned her acceptance to the Global Virus Network’s (GVN) highly selective Rising Star Mentorship Program.
Gene editing could render mosquitos infertile, reducing disease spread
Mosquitos spread viruses that cause potentially deadly diseases such as Zika, dengue fever and yellow fever. New U.S. Army-funded research uses gene editing to render certain male mosquitoes infertile and slow the spread of these diseases.
How Does Dengue Vaccines Fail to Protect Against Disease
UNC-Chapel Hill scientists investigated blood samples from children enrolled in a dengue vaccine trial to identify the specific kinds of antibody responses that correlate with protection against dengue virus disease.
Dengue immune function discovery could benefit much-needed vaccine development
The discovery of new possible biomarkers to predict clinical and immune responses to dengue virus infection could be critical to informing future vaccines for the mosquito-borne virus, which saw a record number of over 400 million cases in 2019.
