BACKGROUND Diagnosis of leptospirosis by the gold standard serologic assay, the microscopic agglutination test (MAT), requires paired sera and is not widely available. We developed a rapid assay using immunodominant Leptospira immunoglobulin-like (Lig) proteins in a Dual Path Platform (DPP). This study aimed to evaluate the assay's diagnostic performance in the setting of urban transmission. ...

Leptospirosis is a tropical neglected disease that is highly under-diagnosed and under-reported, mostly because of a lack of diagnosis capacity. The Institut Pasteur International Network includes researchers and physicians that have a recognized expertise in the field of leptospirosis epidemiology and diagnosis. Taking advantage of this international and widespread network of expertise, we cur...

AKI is one of the most serious complications of leptospirosis, an important zoonosis in the tropics. Recently, NGAL, one of the novel AKI biomarkers, is extensively studied in various specific settings such as sepsis, cardiac surgery, and radiocontrast nephropathy. In this multicenter study, we aimed to study the role of NGAL as an early marker and an outcome predictor of leptospirosis associat...
