Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology and Environmental Health Sciences, Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health, Georgia Southern University, Statesboro, Georgia.
The COVID-19 pandemic was an unprecedented global health crisis. Vulnerable populations with preexisting mental illness have been disproportionately burdened and may experience adverse mental health outcomes related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our objective was to evaluate the association between COVID-19 diagnosis, known exposure to COVID-19, sheltering in place, symptom severity, psychological distress, and depression severity among adults with severe mental illness (SMI).

Background: Chronic neurologic deficits from traumatic brain injury (TBI) and subsequent infectious encephalitis are poorly characterized.
Methods: Using TriNetX database we queried patients 18 years or older with a confirmed diagnosis of encephalitis between 2016 and 2024. Patient cohorts included those with a diagnosis of TBI at least one month before encephalitis ( = 1,038), those with a diagnosis of a TBI anytime before encephalitis ( = 1,886), and those with encephalitis but no TBI, ( = 45,210; = 45,215).
A Contemporary Insight Into the Seroepidemiology of Herpes Simplex Virus Infection in the Sub-Himalayan Region: Seroepidemiology of HSV Infection in North India.

Department of Microbiology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, India.
Infection by human herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (HSV-1/2) is common globally though with wide regional variability. Seroepidemiology of HSV-1/2 infections is of utmost importance in formulating control strategies, but there is a paucity of data from many regions of India. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of anti-HSV-1/2 antibodies in Uttarakhand and adjoining areas and to study its pattern and distribution in different subgroups.

October 2024
Department of Biochemistry, Sismanogleio Hospital, Athens 15126, Greece.
Background: Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising field for the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of respiratory tract infections (RTIs). By leveraging the unique properties of nanoscale delivery systems, nanotechnology can significantly enhance the selectivity and efficacy of antimicrobials, thereby reducing off-target effects.
Objective: This review explores the development and application of targeted nanosystems in combating viral, bacterial, and fungal RTIs.
Revealing trends in measles immunity during periods of varying measles circulation in Madagascar.

Estimating the durability of immunity from vaccination is complicated by unreported re-vaccination, and unobserved natural infection or reexposure, which could result in overestimation of protection longevity. We tested serial cross-sectional serum samples from 2005 to 2015 (N=2,530) for IgG to examine measles seroprevalence, spatiotemporal patterns of titers across regions and antibody dynamics among children aged 1-9 years who grew up during varying measles circulation in Madagascar under a one-dose vaccination schedule. We found that measles seroprevalence has generally decreased over this time period.
