Всеобщая инфекция и риск заражения москитными векторами Западного Нила, Сент. Луи энцефалит, Усуту и японский энцефалит: систематический обзор.

Растущая тенденция распространения переносимых комарами патогенов требует более точных глобальных оценок риска инфицирования и передачи между комарами. Здесь мы систематически анализируем полевые и лабораторные исследования для оценки естественной полевой инфекции и экспериментального лабораторного риска передачи комаров Кулекса. Мы изучали четыре во всем мире флавивируса: Западный Нил, Усуту, Японский энцефалит и Святой. Луи энцефалит, принадлежащий японскому энцефалиту серокомплексу (JES). В отношении обоих подходов было подготовлено заявление PRISMA. Риск заражения различными видами комаров

The increasing trend of mosquito-borne pathogens demands more accurate global estimations of infection and transmission risks between mosqui … s encephalitis Culex quinquefasciatus (North America), and for Japanese encephalitis Culex gelidus (Oceania). We conclude that on a worldwide scale, a combination of field and experimental data offers a better way of understanding natural infection and transmission risks between mosquito populations.

Rabies in Our Neighbourhood: Preparedness for an Emerging Infectious Disease.

Emerging infectious disease (EID) events have the potential to cause devastating impacts on human, animal and environmental health. A range of tools exist which can be applied to address EID event detection, preparedness and response. Here we use a case study of rabies in Southeast Asia and Oceania to illustrate, via nearly a decade of research activities, how such tools can be systematically integrated into a framework for EID preparedness. During the past three decades, canine rabies has spread to previously free areas of Southeast Asia, threatening the rabies-free status of countries such a…

[Study on pesticides residue monitoring data in some countries of the world].

In May 2006, the positive list system for residues of pesticide and veterinary medicines in food was introduced in Japan. Under this system, … esticides residue monitoring data published by food safety authorities of North America, Europe and Oceania countries in their web sites. We focused food items and foods/origins combinations which Japan imported in large quantity. Most of pesticides residues detected in twelve food items were mainly fungicides and insecticides, and some residues level of …

Establishment of a New Real-Time Molecular Assay for the Detection of Babanki Virus in Africa.

Babanki virus is a subtype of the Sindbis virus, a widespread arthropod-borne alphavirus circulating in Eurasia, Africa, and Oceania. Characterized by rashes and arthritis, clinical infections due to Sindbis were mainly reported in Africa, Australia, Asia, and Europe. However, its sub-type, Babanki virus, was reported in Northern Europe and Africa, where its epidemiology potential remains poorly understood. The diagnosis of alphaviruses is mainly based on serological testing and conventional PCR methods, which have considerable limits. In this study, we developed a real-time qRT-PCR assay for …

General and abdominal adiposity and hypertension in eight world regions: a pooled analysis of 837 population-based studies with 7·5 million participants.

BACKGROUND: Adiposity can be measured using BMI (which is based on weight and height) as well as indices of abdominal adiposity. We examined … t in central and eastern Europe for both sexes, in the high-income western region for women, and in Oceania for men. Conversely, to achieve an equivalent WHtR, the BMI of the population of south Asia would need to be, on average, 2·79 kg/m2 (95% CI 2·31-3·28) lower for women and 1·28 kg/m2 (1·02-1·54) lower for men than in the high-income western region. …

Diminishing benefits of urban living for children and adolescents' growth and development.

Optimal growth and development in childhood and adolescence is crucial for lifelong health and well-being1-6. Here we used data from 2,325 p … antage. The exception was for boys in most countries in sub-Saharan Africa and in some countries in Oceania, south Asia and the region of central Asia, Middle East and north Africa. In these countries, successive cohorts of boys from rural places either did not gain height or possibly became shorter, and hence fell further behind their urban peers. The di …

Ultra-Processed Foods, Gut Microbiota, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Critical Review of Emerging Evidence.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic conditions marked by dysregulated inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Although the pathophysiology of IBD remains incompletely understood, it involves complex interactions between genetic predisposition and environmental triggers, such as gut microbiota imbalances and immune dysfunction, leading to chronic inflammation and mucosal injury. IBD affects approximately 7 million individuals globally, with prevalence increasing in Europe, North America, and Oceania. Th…

A brief description of the epidemiology of dengue in Dili, Timor-Leste, 2018-2022.

Dengue virus (DENV) infection causes 390 million infections per year and 40,000 deaths globally. It is endemic in many countries in Asia, Africa, the Americas, the Caribbean, and Oceania. Dengue is endemic in Timor-Leste year-round, but peak transmission occurs during the rainy season. We briefly describe the epidemiology of DENV in the Municipality of Dili between 2018 and 2022. There were 6,234 cases notified, with a mean annual incidence rate of 330 cases per 100,000 population. There were 55 deaths (case fatality rate 0.9%). The peak annual incidence (3,904 cases) occurred in 2022 after an…

Tinea Imbricata among the Indigenous Communities: Current Global Epidemiology and Research Gaps Associated with Host Genetics and Skin Microbiota.

Tinea imbricata is a unique fungal skin disease that mostly affects indigenous populations in Southeast Asia, Oceania, and Central and South America. The control and management of this disease among these communities are challenging given their remote locations, certain traditional practices, and severe malnutrition status. To date, there are only a handful of reports published globally, which highlights the need for a more holistic approach in addressing this skin disease. Several bodies of evidence and reports have shown that host genetic factors have a profound influence on the pathogenesis…
