Clinical infectious diseases : an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America

Baron EJ, Miller JM, Weinstein MP, Richter SS, Gilligan PH, Thomson RB, Bourbeau P, Carroll KC, Kehl SC, Dunne WM, Robinson-Dunn B, Schwartzman JD, Chapin KC, Snyder JW, Forbes BA, Patel R, Rosenblatt JE, Pritt BS.
PMID: 23845951
Clin Infect Dis. 2013 Aug;57(4):e22-e121. doi: 10.1093/cid/cit278. Epub 2013 Jul 10.

The critical role of the microbiology laboratory in infectious disease diagnosis calls for a close, positive working relationship between the physician and the microbiologists who provide enormous value to the health care team. This document, developed by both laboratory...

Infectious diseases at different stages of migration: an expert review.

Journal of travel medicine

Greenaway C, Castelli F.
PMID: 30726941
J Travel Med. 2019 Feb 01;26(2). doi: 10.1093/jtm/taz007.

BACKGROUND: Human migration is increasing in magnitude and scope. The majority of migrants arriving in high-income countries originate from countries with a high prevalence of infectious diseases. The risk and burden of infectious diseases are not equally distributed among...

Curtailing the communicability of psychiatric disorders.

The lancet. Psychiatry

Wainberg ML, Helpman L, Duarte CS, Vermund SH, Mootz JJ, Gouveia L, Oquendo MA, McKinnon K, Cournos F.
PMID: 30316807
Lancet Psychiatry. 2018 Nov;5(11):940-944. doi: 10.1016/S2215-0366(18)30342-0. Epub 2018 Oct 10.

Although psychiatric disorders are classified as non-communicable diseases, we believe this classification is too rigid and limiting. We present evidence of the communicability of psychiatric disorders through three major pathways: infectious and ecological, familial, and sociocultural communicability. Successful strategies...

Next-Generation Sequencing for Biodefense: Biothreat Detection, Forensics, and the Clinic.

Clinical chemistry

Minogue TD, Koehler JW, Stefan CP, Conrad TA.
PMID: 30352865
Clin Chem. 2019 Mar;65(3):383-392. doi: 10.1373/clinchem.2016.266536. Epub 2018 Oct 23.

BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is revolutionizing a variety of molecular biology fields including bioforensics, biosurveillance, and infectious disease diagnostics. For pathogen detection, the ability to sequence all nucleic acids in a sample allows near limitless multiplexability, free from a...

Point-Counterpoint: Should We Be Performing Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing for Infectious Disease Diagnosis in the Clinical Laboratory?.

Journal of clinical microbiology

Miller S, Chiu C, Rodino KG, Miller MB.
PMID: 31619533
J Clin Microbiol. 2020 Feb 24;58(3). doi: 10.1128/JCM.01739-19. Print 2020 Feb 24.

INTRODUCTIONWith established applications of next-generation sequencing in inherited diseases and oncology, clinical laboratories are evaluating the use of metagenomics for identification of infectious agents directly from patient samples, to aid in the diagnosis of infections. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing for...

Infectious or Recovered? Optimizing the Infectious Disease Detection Process for Epidemic Control and Prevention Based on Social Media.

International journal of environmental research and public health

Shan S, Yan Q, Wei Y.
PMID: 32961734
Int J Environ Res Public Health. 2020 Sep 19;17(18). doi: 10.3390/ijerph17186853.

Detecting the period of a disease is of great importance to building information management capacity in disease control and prevention. This paper aims to optimize the disease surveillance process by further identifying the infectious or recovered period of flu...

Exosomes: From Functions in Host-Pathogen Interactions and Immunity to Diagnostic and Therapeutic Opportunities.

Reviews of physiology, biochemistry and pharmacology

Carrière J, Barnich N, Nguyen HT.
PMID: 27600934
Rev Physiol Biochem Pharmacol. 2016;172:39-75. doi: 10.1007/112_2016_7.

Since their first description in the 1980s, exosomes, small endosomal-derived extracellular vesicles, have been involved in innate and adaptive immunity through modulating immune responses and mediating antigen presentation. Increasing evidence has reported the role of exosomes in host-pathogen interactions...
