Navigating the future of bacterial molecular epidemiology
Technological advances in high-throughput genome sequencing have led to an enhanced appreciation of the genetic diversity found within populations of pathogenic bacteria. Methods based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and insertions or deletions (indels) build upon the framework established by multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) and permit a detailed, targeted analysis of variation with...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology: recent advances and future directions.
In 1982 we proposed the concept and a framework for implementing molecular cancer epidemiology. Here, we review progress during the past 17 years in validating and applying this approach to cancer prevention. There have been major advances, notably in the understanding of environment-susceptibility interactions in human cancer. However, a review of major findings to date reveals several urgent ...
متن کاملThe Future of Epidemiology The Future of Epidemiology
In this article, the authors discuss current challenges and opportunities in epidemiology that will affect the field’s future. Epidemiology is commonly considered the methodologic backbone for the fields of public health and outcomes research because its practitioners describe patterns of disease occurrence, identify risk factors and etiologic determinants, and demonstrate the usefulness of int...

Background and aims: The food-borne pathogens appear to be a reemerging and endless problem inthe human community all over the world. Hence, all the outbreaks should be constantly monitored forpandemic strains and new mutant genotypes. The main purpose behind the molecular typing methodsis the comparison of bacterial isolates to obtain genomic relatedness regarding epidemiolog...
متن کاملMolecular Epidemiology of Human Papillomavirus in Pterygium
Abstract Background and Objective: Ophthalmic pterygium is a potentially vision-threatening lesion of unknown etiology that often extends on the corneal surface and has a worldwide distribution. Despite various studies, the pathogenesis of pterygium remains unclear and the involvement of human papillomavirus is controversial. We aimed to investigate the involvement of papillomavirus in pte...
