New concerns about EV-D68, a seasonal virus that can -- in rare cases -- cause polio-like symptoms in children. Dr. Kristin Moffitt, an infectious disease specialist at Boston Children's...
EV-D68 cases on the rise
In this webinar, we discuss how analysis of haplotype genomes can be useful to study viral infection like the recent outbreaks fo Enterovirus D68 using bioin...
1 sty 2021 · In this review, we discuss the accumulating data on the molecular features of EV-D68 and place these into the context of enterovirus biology in general. We highlight similarities and differences with other enteroviruses and genetic divergence from own historical prototype strains of EV-D68.
9 cze 2023 · Our results provide evidence that changes in enterovirus phenotypes cause major changes in disease epidemiology. The authors use data from three cross-sectional age-stratified serosurveys on Enterovirus D68 from England between 2006 and 2017 to examine the transmission dynamics of this pathogen.
9 cze 2023 · To address the question of whether transmission had increased before the first reported big outbreaks of EV-D68 in 2014, we compared the performance of two catalytic models that differed on the assumptions of how the FOI changed over time (Materials and methods).
23 lip 2024 · Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is a virus that causes respiratory illness similar to the common cold. It sometimes leads to severe breathing issues and outbreaks of neurological disease (acute flaccid myelitis) that causes paralysis.
