Spatial-Temporal Distribution of Hantavirus Rodent-Borne Infection by Oligoryzomys fulvescens in the Agua Buena Region - Panama
BACKGROUND Hotspot detection and characterization has played an increasing role in understanding the maintenance and transmission of zoonotic pathogens. Identifying the specific environmental factors (or their correlates) that influence reservoir host abundance help increase understanding of how pathogens are maintained in natural systems and are crucial to identifying disease risk. However, mo...
متن کاملNovel Bat-borne Hantavirus, Vietnam
To the Editor: Compelling evidence of genetically distinct hantavi-ruses (family Bunyaviridae) in multiple species of shrews and moles (order Soricomorpha, families Soricidae and Talpidae) across 4 continents (1–7) suggests that soricomorphs, rather than rodents (order Rodentia, families Muridae and Cricetidae), might be the primordial hosts (6,7). Recently, the host range of hantaviruses has b...
متن کاملEchinostomiasis--a snail-borne intestinal trematode zoonosis.
Numerous echinostome trematodes are found in the intestines of birds and mammals throughout the world, and echinostomiasis in humans has been attributed to approximately 16 different species. In humans it is usually regarded as a rare intestinal parasite of little clinical importance except in heavy infections. Diagnosis of echinostomiasis is made by identification of eggs during fecal examinat...
متن کاملWhole-Genome Sequence of Muju Virus, an Arvicolid Rodent-Borne Hantavirus
The complete genome sequence of Muju virus was determined from lung tissue samples of three royal voles (Myodes regulus) captured in Gangwon province in the Republic of Korea. Since few whole genome sequences of hantaviruses are available, this sequence may help to clarify the molecular phylogeny of arvicolid rodent-borne hantaviruses.

Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) is caused by the emerging rodent-borne viruses of the genus Hantavirus (Nichol et al. 1993). Since 1993, over 1,400 cases have been identified in 14 states in Brazil. Santa Catarina (SC) (southern Brazil, 27o10’S 51o44’W) is the second most affected Brazilian state, with a large number of cases (n = 226) (Brazilian Health Ministry Report on Hantavirus cases 1...
