The global burden of neglected zoonotic diseases: Current state of evidence
diseases Years lived with disability Years of life lost Abstract: The majority of emerging infectious diseases are zoonoses, most of which are classified as “neglected”. By affecting both humans and animals, ...
Taenia solium Cysticercosis/Taeniosis in Europe and Central Asia
in reviews, taeniosis and cysticercosis cases were reported in almost all countries across the continent. Species specification was rarely performed and diagnosis of human cysticercosis was challenging ...
Fasciola spp. in Southeast Asia: a systematic review and meta-analysis protocol
Veronique Dermauw Source: Systematic Reviews, Volume 11, Issue 1 (2022) Keywords: Fasciola Human Liver fluke Livestock Plants public health Snail Abstract: Background. Fascioliasis is an emerging public ...
Assessing the burden of Taenia solium cysticercosis in Burundi, 2020
humans and pigs. Methods. Epidemiological and economic data were collected from literature up to July 30, 2021 and governmental and non-governmental agencies. Direct and indirect costs for ...
Human health and economic impact of neurocysticercosis in Uganda
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Fabian Dupont; Chiara Trevisan; Joyce Moriku Kaducu; Emilio Ovuga; Veronika Schmidt; Andrea S Winkler; Brecht Devleesschauwer Source: Tropical Medicine & International Health, Volume 27, Issu ...
Application of a strain-level shotgun metagenomics approach on food samples: resolution of the source of a Salmonella food-borne outbreak
food samples could circumvent this need for isolation from the suspected source, but require downstream strain-level data analysis to be able to accurately link to the human isolate. Until now, this ...
Towards Real-Time and Affordable Strain-Level Metagenomics-Based Foodborne Outbreak Investigations Using Oxford Nanopore Sequencing Technologies
related human isolate of the affected patient, by means of a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based phylogeny. The inferred strain harbored the same virulence genes as the spiked isolate and could be ...
Whole Genome Sequencing Provides an Added Value to the Investigation of Staphylococcal Food Poisoning Outbreaks
a bigger arsenal of SE at the gene level (se) but are labor-intensive. Complete se profiling of isolates from different sources, i.e., food and human cases, is, however, important to provide an indication of ...
Staphylococcal enterotoxin gene cluster: prediction of enterotoxin (SEG and SEI) production and of the source of food poisoning based on Saβ typing.
staphylococcal enterotoxin production, particularly enterotoxin G (SEG) and enterotoxin I (SEI). For this purpose whole genome sequences of 75 strains from different origins (food poisoning outbreaks, human, and ...
Strain-Level Metagenomic Data Analysis of Enriched In Vitro and In Silico Spiked Food Samples: Paving the Way towards a Culture-Free Foodborne Outbreak Investigation Using STEC as a Case Study.
simulated metagenomic data to explore the possibilities and limitations of this data analysis approach. The performed analysis allowed us to link the pathogenic strains from food samples to human isolates ...
