Viral Genetic Determinants of Prolonged Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection Among Infants in a Healthy Term Birth Cohort

Jacques Fellay, Thomas Junier, Zhi Ming Xu, Dylan Lawless

Background. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is associated with acute respiratory infection. We sought to identify RSV variants associated with prolonged infection. ...

Correction of Human Forehead Temperature Variations Measured by Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer

Adrian Shajkofci

Elevated body temperature (fever) can be a common symptom of a medical condition, such as a viral or bacterial infection, including SARS-CoV-2 or influenza. Non-contact infrared thermometers are able to measure forehead temperature in a timely manner and w ...

Current challenges in understanding the role of enhancers in disease

Bart Deplancke

Enhancers play a central role in the spatiotemporal control of gene expression and tend to work in a cell-type-specific manner. In addition, they are suggested to be major contributors to phenotypic variation, evolution and disease. There is growing eviden ...

C-reactive protein and white matter microstructural changes in COVID-19 patients with encephalopathy

Alessandra Griffa

Encephalopathy is a neurological complication of COVID-19. The objective of this exploratory study is to investigate the link between systemic inflammation and brain microstructural changes (measured by diffusion-weighted imaging) in patients with COVID-19 ...

Broad-spectrum Antiviral Nanoparticles : a morphological CryoEM Study on the Interaction of Nanoparticles and Viruses

Marie Müller

Viral infections affect millions of people every year, yet broad-spectrum virucidal therapies are not available. Antiviral substances in current use act on specific viral mechanisms against only a small number of viruses. Virustatic materials interfere wit ...

Amino Acid Variation in HLA Class II Proteins Is a Major Determinant of Humoral Response to Common Viruses

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha, Christian Hammer

The magnitude of the human antibody response to viral antigens is highly variable. To explore the human genetic contribution to this variability, we performed genome-wide association studies of the immunoglobulin G response to 14 pathogenic viruses in 2,36 ...

Performance of novel ventilation strategy for capturing CO2 with scheduled occupancy diversity and infiltration rate

This paper proposes a novel ventilation strategy for capturing CO2 with scheduled occupancy diversity, and changes in recirculating ratio and infiltration rate. While many publications have described filters and a lamp that can efficiently capture and remo ...

European genetic diversity and susceptibility to pathogens

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Infectious diseases, both in their endemic and epidemic forms, have shaped the human genome. Ecology has also contributed to geographically constrained pressures on human populations. There are now multiple examples of population-specific genetic variants ...

Nanoparticle size influences the magnitude and quality of mucosal immune responses after intranasal immunization

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz

Background: The development of nanoparticulate antigen-delivery systems is an important emerging area of vaccinology, being sought to amplify immune responses to recombinant antigens that are poorly immunogenic. Nanoparticle size may play an important role ...
