DISEASE ACCOMPANYING IN UTERO VIRAL INFECTION

Disease Accompanying in Utero Viral Infection

Early, after in utero infection with LCM virus, SWR/J and HA/ICR mice developed manifestations of immune complex disease. Observations based on nursing such mice with virus-infected, immune, or noninfected mouse mothers indicated that maternal antiviral antibody was responsible for the early immune complex glomerulonephritis. Despite comparable viral persistance, in utero-infected offspring fai...

Sweet Syndrome Accompanying Inflammatory Bowel Disease in a Child

Persistent bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection in cattle herds

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a significant pathogen associated with gastrointestinal, respiratory, and reproductive diseases of cattle worldwide. It causes continuous economic losses to the cattle industry primarily due to decreased reproductive performance. The ability of virus to cross the placenta during early pregnancy can result in the birth of persistently infected (PI) calves. P...

rota viral infection: a significant disease burden to libya.

rotavirus is a common infection causing 450,000 deaths annually primarily in children 5 years and below. despite the high burden of disease, little is known about the epidemiology of rotavirus in libya. the aim of this study was to estimate the rotavirus disease burden among libyan children.a cross-sectional study was carried out prospectively among children 5 years old and below between august...
