Abstract
Active surveillance for lyssaviruses was conducted among populations of bats in the Philippines. The presence of past or current Lyssavirus infection was determined by use of direct fluorescent antibody assays on bat brains and virus neutralization assays on bat sera. Although no bats were found to have active infection with a Lyssavirus, 22 had evidence of neutralizing antibody against the Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV). Seropositivity was statistically associated with one species of bat, Miniopterus schreibersi. Results from the virus neutralization assays are consistent with the presence in the Philippines of a naturally occurring Lyssavirus related to ABLV.
Highlights
These findings demonstrate low genetic diversity among Y132F isolates from the same country
76.7% (23/30) of patients with Y132F isolates had no antifungal exposure within 30 days before candidemia detection, and their clonal transmission was not detected by routine hospital surveillance, partly because more than half of the patient hospitalizations did not overlap. These findings indicate that clonal Y132F isolates may be dormant over long periods and can survive and persist outside their host on hospital environmental surfaces, which may be similar to the behavior of C. auris [10]
We describe a case of B. miyamotoi disease in an immunocompetent patient in western Europe
Summary
We describe an abdominal AGI caused by M. chimaera and Granulicatella adiacens. The objective of our study was to describe the characteristics of pediatric patients who had atypical or severe forms of the disease and to search for predictive factors for severe forms. The purpose of this study was to investigate and report 3 unusual cases of arboviral disease that occurred in Colorado in 2008. Based on the need for information about this aspect, we aimed to determine the diffusion of mcr-1–driven colistin resistance in the hospital environment
