Objective: To identify the different Salmonella strain serotypes isolated at public and private laboratories in Mexico and at the Institute for Epidemiologic Diagnosis and Referral (InDRE).
Material And Methods: A total of 24,394 Salmonella strains collected from 1972 to 1999 in public and private health laboratories of Mexico were analyzed with the Kauffmann-White method, using antisera produced by InDRE, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, Atlanta, GA) standards; 15,843 (64.9%) samples were from human sources and 8,551 (35.1%) from non-human sources.
Results: One hundred ninety nine different serotypes were identified. The most frequent serotype in human beings was S. Typhimurium (20.4%), followed by S. Enteritidis (18.3%). In the past few years, the frequency of S. Enteritidis has been increasing, surpassing that of S. Typhimurium since 1991. Presently S. Enteritidis is the most frequently isolated serotype. In non-human sources, S. Derby (13.8%) and S. Anatum (8.5%) are the most frequent strains.
Conclusions: Salmonella serotypes most frequently isolated in Mexico are: S. Typhimurium, S. Enteritidis, S. Derby, S. Agona y S. Anatum. From the epidemiologic standpoint, it is necessary to identify circulating and emerging Salmonella serotypes in order to target pertinent preventative interventions.

Introduction: Infants and young children typically have the highest age-related risk of invasive meningococcal disease. The immunogenicity and safety of a single primary dose and a booster of a meningococcal A/C/W/Y tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine (MenACWY-TT; Nimenrix) in infants were evaluated.
Methods: In this phase 3b, open-label, single-arm study, healthy 3-month-old infants received a single Nimenrix dose followed by a booster at age 12 months (1 + 1 series).

Respiratory disease (RD) is a worldwide leading threat to the pig industry, but there is still limited understanding of the pathogens associated with swine RD. In this study, we conducted a nationwide genomic surveillance on identifying viruses, bacteria, and antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) from the lungs of pigs with RD in China. By performing metatranscriptomic sequencing combined with metagenomic sequencing, we identified 21 viral species belonging to 12 viral families.

Background: Myanmar is one of the countries in Southeast Asia where serious dengue outbreaks occur and Yangon is among the regions with the highest number of cases in the country. Many infections including dengue are common in Yangon during the rainy season, and co-infections may also occur. Adults are more likely than children to experience co-infections of dengue and other diseases.

Unlabelled: Pathogenic strains cause cholera using different mechanisms. O1 and O139 serogroup strains use the toxin-co-regulated pilus (TCP) and cholera toxin (CT) for intestinal colonization and to promote secretory diarrhea, while non-O1/non-O139 serogroup strains are typically non-toxigenic and use alternate virulence factors to cause a clinically similar disease. An O39 serogroup, TCP/CT-negative strain, named AM-19226, uses a type III secretion system (T3SS) to translocate more than 10 effector proteins into the host cell cytosol.
