Article Synopsis
- A patient with fever was referred to a hospital in Kathmandu, Nepal, for infectious disease treatment.
- Metagenomic sequencing of the patient's serum revealed a nearly complete genome of HIV-1.
- This genome was different from previous HIV-1 genomes found in Nepal and showed a 92.48% nucleotide identity with an HIV-1 subtype C isolate from India.
Unlabelled: Acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) causes significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. In Nepal, Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) accounts for ~5-20% of AES cases, but ~75% of AES cases are of unknown etiology. We identified a gemykibivirus in CSF collected in 2020 from an 8-year-old male patient with AES using metagenomic next-generation sequencing.

In Nepal, Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) accounts for ~ 5-20% of AES cases, but ~75% of AES cases are of unknown etiology. We identified a gemykibivirus in CSF collected in 2020 from a male child with AES using metagenomic next-generation sequencing.
