AbstractChikungunya virus (CHIKV) has recently re‐emerged causing millions of infections in countries around the Indian Ocean. While CHIKV has a broad host cell range and productively infects a number of different cell types, macrophages have been identified as a potential viral reservoir serving to increase the duration of symptoms. To date no CHIKV interacting pr...... hiện toàn bộ
Prevalence of hepatitis B and hepatitis C virus infections in France in 2004: Social factors are important predictors after adjusting for known risk factorsJournal of Medical Virology - Tập 82 Số 4 - Trang 546-555 - 2010

AbstractTo monitor the prevalence of hepatitis B and hepatitis C a cross‐sectional survey was conducted in 2004 among French metropolitan residents. A complex sampling design was used to enroll 14,416 adult participants aged 18–80 years. Data collected included demographic and social characteristics and risk factors. Sera were tested for anti‐HCV, HCV‐RNA, anti‐HBc...... hiện toàn bộ
Detection profile of SARS‐CoV‐2 using RT‐PCR in different types of clinical specimens: A systematic review and meta‐analysisJournal of Medical Virology - Tập 93 Số 2 - Trang 719-725 - 2021
George M. Bwire, Mtebe Majigo, Belinda J. Njiro, Akili Mawazo
AbstractTesting is one of the commendable measures for curbing the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID‐19). But, it should be done using the most appropriate specimen and an accurate diagnostic test such as real‐time reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR). Therefore, a systematic review was conducted to determine the positive detection rate of s...... hiện toàn bộ
Does SARS‐CoV‐2 has a longer incubation period than SARS and MERS?Journal of Medical Virology - Tập 92 Số 5 - Trang 476-478 - 2020
Xuan Jiang, Simon Rayner, Min‐Hua Luo
AbstractThe outbreak of a novel coronavirus (SARS‐CoV‐2) since December 2019 in Wuhan, the major transportation hub in central China, became an emergency of major international concern. While several etiological studies have begun to reveal the specific biological features of this virus, the epidemic characteristics need to be elucidated. Notably, a long incubation...... hiện toàn bộ
Stability issues of RT‐PCR testing of SARS‐CoV‐2 for hospitalized patients clinically diagnosed with COVID‐19Journal of Medical Virology - Tập 92 Số 7 - Trang 903-908 - 2020
Yafang Li, Lin Yao, Jiawei Li, Lei Chen, Yiyan Song, Zhifang Cai, Chunhua Yang
AbstractIn this study, we collected a total of 610 hospitalized patients from Wuhan between February 2, 2020, and February 17, 2020. We reported a potentially high false negative rate of real‐time reverse‐transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) testing for SARS‐CoV‐2 in the 610 hospitalized patients clinically diagnosed with COVID‐19 during the 2019 outbre...... hiện toàn bộ
Rapid immunodiagnosis of active cytomegalovirus infection by monoclonal antibody staining of blood leucocytesJournal of Medical Virology - Tập 25 Số 2 - Trang 179-188 - 1988

AbstractThe appearance of cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigen positive blood leucocytes (CMV antigenaemia) was investigated in 52 renal transplant recipients during the first three months after transplantation. Using a mixture of three monoclonal antibodies, CMV (immediate early) antigens were detected in cytocentrifuged blood leucocytes within 3–5 h after sampling. The ...... hiện toàn bộ
