  • Detection of West Nile Virus in Oral and Cloacal Swabs Collected from Bird Carcasses
    Detection of West Nile Virus in Oral and Cloacal Swabs Collected from Bird Carcasses
    Komar, Nicholas ;
    Lanciotti, Robert
    Jul 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(7):741-742.
    We evaluated if postmortem cloacal and oral swabs could replace brain tissue as a specimen for West Nile virus (WNV) detection. WNV was detected in all three specimen types from 20 dead crows and jays with an average of >10(5) WNV PFU in each. These findings suggest that testing cloacal or oral swabs might be a low-resource approach to detect WNV i ...

  • Anthrax of the Gastrointestinal Tract
    Anthrax of the Gastrointestinal Tract
    Sirisanthana, Thira ;
    Brown, Arthur E.
    Jul 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(7):649-651.
    When swallowed, anthrax spores may cause lesions from the oral cavity to the cecum. Gastrointestinal anthrax is greatly underreported in rural disease-endemic areas of the world. The apparent paucity of this form of anthrax reflects the lack of facilities able to make the diagnosis in these areas. The spectrum of disease, ranging from subclinical i ...

  • First Human Isolate of Hantavirus Andes virus in the Americas
    First Human Isolate of Hantavirus (Andes virus) in the Americas
    Galeno, Hector ;
    Mora, Judith
    2002/07/01 | Emerging Infectious Diseases
    We isolated Andes virus (formal name: Andes virus [ANDV], a species in the genus Hantavirus), from serum of an asymptomatic 10-year-old Chilean boy who died 6 days later of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). The serum was obtained 12 days after his grandmother died from HPS and 2 days before he became febrile. No hantavirus immunoglobulin (Ig) G ...

  • Defining and Detecting Malaria Epidemics in the Highlands of Western Kenya
    Defining and Detecting Malaria Epidemics in the Highlands of Western Kenya
    Hay, Simon I. ;
    Simba, Milka
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):555-562.
    Epidemic detection algorithms are being increasingly recommended for malaria surveillance in sub-Saharan Africa. We present the results of applying three simple epidemic detection techniques to routinely collected longitudinal pediatric malaria admissions data from three health facilities in the highlands of western Kenya in the late 1980s and 1990 ...

  • Parachlamydiaceae Potential Emerging Pathogens
    Parachlamydiaceae: Potential Emerging Pathogens
    Greub, Gilbert ;
    Raoult, Didier
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):626-630.
    Parachlamydiaceae, which naturally infect amoebae, form a sister taxon to the Chlamydiaceae on the basis of the Chlamydia-like cycle of replication and 80% to 90% homology of ribosomal RNA genes. Because intra-amoebal growth could increase the virulence of some intracellular bacteria, Parachlamydiaceae may be pathogenic. Arguments supporting a path ...

  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis An Emerging Disease of FreeRanging Wildlife
    Mycobacterium tuberculosis: An Emerging Disease of Free-Ranging Wildlife
    Alexander, Kathleen A. ;
    Pleydell, Eve
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):598-601.
    Expansion of ecotourism-based industries, changes in land-use practices, and escalating competition for resources have increased contact between free-ranging wildlife and humans. Although human presence in wildlife areas may provide an important economic benefit through ecotourism, exposure to human pathogens may represent a health risk for wildlif ...

  • Fatal Infection of a Pet Monkey with Human herpesvirus 1
    Fatal Infection of a Pet Monkey with Human herpesvirus 1
    Huemer, Hartwig P. ;
    Larcher, Clara
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):639-641.
    Concerns have been raised about pet monkeys as a potential threat to humans. We report the opposite situation, a danger to pets that arises from humans. Similar to herpesvirus B (Cercopithecine herpesvirus 1), which endangers humans but not its host species, Human herpesvirus 1 can act as a "killer virus" when crossing the species barrier to New Wo ...

  • Neurocysticercosis in Radiographically Imaged Seizure Patients in US Emergency Departments1
    Neurocysticercosis in Radiographically Imaged Seizure Patients in U.S. Emergency Departments1
    Ong, Samuel ;
    Talan, David A.
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):608-613.
    Neurocysticercosis appears to be on the rise in the United States, based on immigration patterns and published cases series, including reports of domestic acquisition. We used a collaborative network of U.S. emergency departments to characterize the epidemiology of neurocysticercosis in seizure patients. Data were collected prospectively at 11 univ ...

    Quale, John ;
    Landman, David
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):594-597.
    To examine the resistance rates and epidemiology of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Brooklyn, New York, isolates were collected during two boroughwide surveillance periods in 1997 and 1999. Of 138 isolates, 67% were susceptible to penicillin and 34% to ciprofloxacin. Susceptibility rates to ciprofloxacin decreased dramatically from 1997 to 1999 (47% to ...

    Cluster of African Trypanosomiasis in Travelers to Tanzanian National Parks
    Jelinek, Tomas ;
    Bisoffi, Zeno
    Jun 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(6):634-635.
    Game parks in Tanzania have long been considered to be at low risk for African trypanosomiasis; however, nine cases of the disease associated with these parks were recently reported. The outbreak was detected through TropNetEurop, a sentinel surveillance network of clinical sites throughout Europe.

    In December 1997, media reported hospital overcrowding and "the worst [flu epidemic] in the past two decades" in Los Angeles County (LAC). We found that rates of pneumonia and influenza deaths, hospitalizations, and claims were substantially higher for the 1997-98 influenza season than the previous six seasons. Hours of emergency medical services ( ...

    Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are frequent in Inuit children, in terms of incidence and severity. A cohort of 294 children <2 years of age was formed in Sisimiut, a community on the west coast of Greenland, and followed from 1996 to 1998. Data on ARI were collected during weekly visits at home and child-care centers; visits to the community health center were also recorded. The cohort had respiratory symptoms on 41.6% and fever on 4.9% of surveyed days. The incidence of upper and lower respiratory tract infections was 1.6 episodes and 0.9 episodes per 100 days at risk, respectively. Up to 65% of the episodes of ARI caused activity restriction; 40% led to contact with the health center. Compared with studies from other parts of the world, the incidence of ARI appears to be high in Inuit children.

    A survey of fecal samples found enterococcal excretion in 82% of 388 bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus), 92% of 131 woodmice (Apodemus sylvaticus), and 75% of 165 badgers (Meles meles). Vancomycin-resistant enterococci, all Enterococcus faecium of vanA genotype, were excreted by 4.6% of the woodmice and 1.2% of the badgers, but by none of the ban ...
