Adolescent providers’ knowledge of human papillomavirus vaccination age guidelines in five countries (Taylor and Francis, 2019)PURPOSE : To examine provider knowledge of HPV vaccination age guidelines in five countries. METHODS : A total of 151 providers of adolescent vaccinations in Argentina, Malaysia, South Africa, South Korea, and Spain ...
-
(Springer, 2011-03)Potential ways to address the issues that relate to the techniques for analyzing food and environmental samples for the presence of enteric viruses are discussed. It is not the authors’ remit to produce or recommend ...
-
(Wiley, 2014-03)OBJECTIVE : To determine whether gastroenteritis viruses and other enteric viruses could be detected in faecal specimens collected with Bio-wipes. METHODS : Faecal specimens, self-collected with Bio-wipes, from 190 ...
-
(Springer, 2013-01)In this study, a competitive internal amplification control (IAC) was constructed for application in the real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction detection of sapoviruses (SaVs). A SaV RNA standard was ...
-
(Elsevier, 2018-02)Several African arboviruses have emerged over the past decade in new regions where they caused major outbreaks in humans and/or animals including West Nile virus, Chikungunya virus and Zika virus. This raise questions ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2007-06)Human astroviruses (HAstV) have been commonly identified worldwide as important aetiological agents of acute gastroenteritis in all age groups including the young, elderly and immunocompromised. However, limited data exist ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2005-10-01)Motivation: Genetic analysis of HIV-1 is important not only for vaccine development, but also to guide treatment strategies, track the emergence of new viral variants and ensure that diagnostic assays are contemporary and ...
-
(Elsevier, 2018-10)Core-sheath structured fibres were developed for application as part of an alternative malaria vector control intervention aimed at reducing outdoor malaria transmission. The fibres were prepared by melt spinning of high ...
-
(Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2020-04-01)BACKGROUND : Elimination of mother-to-child transmission of HIV requires sustained viral load suppression during pregnancy and breastfeeding among women living with HIV (WLHIV). Antenatal antiretroviral therapy coverage ...
-
(Elsevier, 2021-02)BACKGROUND : Astroviruses (AstVs) are associated with diarrhoeal and extra-intestinal infections in human, animal and avian species. A prevalence of 7% was reported in selected regions in SA while AstVs detected from ...
-
(Wiley, 2015-05)Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a member of the Bunyaviridae family with a tripartite, negative sense RNA genome. This study used predictive software to analyse the L (large), M (medium), and S (small) ...
-
(Sage, 2015-01)The pathology in mice infected with neurovirulent South African lineage 2 West Nile virus (WNV) strains has not previously been described. Three- to 4-month-old male BALBc mice were infected with South African neurovirulent ...
-
(Elsevier, 2018-06)The introduction of oral rotavirus vaccines (ORVVs) has led to a reduction in number of hospitalisations and deaths due to rotavirus (RV) infection. However, the efficacy of the vaccines has been varied with low-income ...
-
(Wiley, 2011-10)Respiratory syncytial virus is a leading cause of lower respiratory tract infection in infants. Disease severity has been linked to host immune responses and polymorphisms in genes associated with innate immunity. A ...
-
(BMJ Publishing, 2023-05)OBJECTIVES : Cervical cancer is preventable and caused by persistent infection with oncogenic human papilloma virus (HPV) types. HPV screening is more sensitive and is the preferred screening test. HPV screening data are ...
-
(Elsevier, 2016-03)BACKGROUND : Sapoviruses (SaVs) are recognised as causative agents of gastroenteritis worldwide. How-ever, data on the genetic diversity of this virus in Africa are lacking, particularly in the form of currentlong-term ...
-
Emerging norovirus GII.4 2008 variant detected in hospitalised paediatric patients in South Africa (Elsevier, 2010-08)BACKGROUND: Noroviruses (NoVs)are important enteric pathogens that cause gastroenteritis worldwide. The first documented NoV outbreaks in South Africa(SA)were described in 1993. The current NoV prevalence and circulating ...
-
(Wiley, 2019-02)BACKGROUND : The epidemiology of human astroviruses (HAstVs) in hospitalised patients less than 5 years of age from selected sites in South Africa was investigated. Diarrheagenic stool specimens collected from April 2009 ...
-
(Elsevier, 2013-04)Assays that detect p24 antigen reduce the diagnostic window period of HIV testing. Most point-of-care HIV assays have poor sensitivity to diagnose acute HIV infection as they only detect antibodies against HIV-1 and HIV-2 ...
