Japanese Encephalitis
Genotype III-Based Japanese Encephalitis Vaccines Exhibit Diminished Neutralizing Response to Re-emerging Genotype V
Japanese encephalitis (JE) has been predominantly controlled through vaccination. However, the isolation of JE virus (JEV) genotype V (GV) in China in 2009, and the subsequent alarming increase in JE cases in the Republic of Korea since 2010, present a new challenge. Serum samples from individuals vaccinated...

Viral Infection and the Blood-Brain Barrier: Molecular Research Insights and Therapies
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the brain from pathogenic microorganisms. Neurologic complications from viral infections, including herpes simplex virus, varicella zoster virus, HIV, Japanese encephalitis virus, and SARS-CoV-2, are linked to BBB dysfunction and loss of barrier integrity. Increased...

Half-life estimation of pertussis-specific maternal antibodies in (pre)term infants after in-pregnancy tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis vaccination
To reduce the risk of pertussis related morbidity and mortality in early life, an increasing number of countries recommend maternal pertussis vaccination. Hence, there is limited knowledge about half-lives of vaccine-induced pertussis-specific maternal antibodies, especially in preterm infants and factors...
Hepatitis A
The Burden of Hepatitis A Outbreaks in the United States: Health Outcomes, Economic Costs, and Management Strategies
Hepatitis A (HepA) vaccines are recommended for United States (US) adults at risk of HepA. Ongoing US HepA outbreaks since 2016 have primarily spread person-to-person, especially among at-risk groups. We investigated the health outcomes, economic burden, and outbreak management considerations associated...
Chikungunya
Results of a nationally representative seroprevalence survey of chikungunya virus in Bangladesh
There is an increasing global burden from chikungunya virus (CHIKV). Bangladesh reported a major epidemic in 2017, however, it was unclear if there had been prior widespread transmission. We conducted a nationally representative seroprevalence survey in 70 randomly selected communities immediately prior...
