Background Fungal infections mainly caused by are increasing rapidly and represent a serious public health problem in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. This study aimed to investigate the antifungal susceptibility profile and virulence factors in isolated from HIV-infected patients. Methodology Isolates were identified by biochemical and molecular methods.

The long-term prognosis for non-bronchiolitis lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) caused by viruses different from HRSV and rhinovirus, on the other hand, has received less interest.
Aim: To investigate the relationship between infant LRTI and later asthma and examine the influence of confounding factors.
Hepatitis E Virus in Water Environments: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Food Environ Virol
September 2022
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is responsible for acute hepatitis in humans, through foodborne, zoonotic, and waterborne transmission routes. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of HEV in water matrices. Six categories were defined: untreated and treated wastewater, surface water (river, lake, and seawater), drinking water, groundwater, and other water environments (irrigation water, grey water, reservoir water, flood water, and effluent of pig slaughterhouse).

We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Global Index Medicus, and Excerpta Medica Database. Study selection and data extraction were performed by at least two independent investigators.

- Yellow fever (YF) has seen a resurgence over the past two decades, leading to outbreaks in endemic areas and new regions, which poses significant public health challenges.
- This systematic review analyzed data on the case fatality rate (31.1% in humans) and the prevalence of the yellow fever virus (YFV) in humans (9.4%), mosquitoes, and non-human primates in sub-Saharan Africa, based on 55 studies.
- The findings emphasize the ongoing virus transmission and highlight the urgent need for strategies like the WHO's Eliminate Yellow Fever Epidemics initiative to prevent future outbreaks in the region.
