  • Epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory characteristics and treatment and outcomes data were obtained through data collection forms from electronic medical records, and the relation between clinical data and disease severity was analysed. (bmj.com)
  • The severity of the disease is variable, and the highly pathogenic form can rapidly kill numerous avian species. (usda.gov)
  • Stomach viruses can be spread through contaminated food or water and can cause viral gastroenteritis, meaning inflammation of the stomach and intestines (small and large). (nativeremedies.com)
  • CNS is protected by effective immune responses and multi-layer barriers, but some viruses enter with high-efficiency through the bloodstream and some by directly infecting the nerves that innervate the tissues. (wikipedia.org)
  • Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus Lagovirus europaeus /GI.1d variant (GI.1d/RHDV) was identified in 1990 in France, and until the emergence of the new genotype GI.2, it was the main variant circulating in the country. (biomedcentral.com)

  • Viruses are ultramicroscopic particles. (brainkart.com)
  • Four tested doses, negligible (10 − 1 viral genome copies), low (10 4 ), high (10 7 ) and very high (10 11 ) were quantified using a method combining density gradient centrifugation of the viral particles and an RT-qPCR technique developed to quantify genomic RNA (gRNA). (biomedcentral.com)
  • Determining the minimum dose of viral particles required to cause mortality in rabbits is an important input for in vivo studies. (biomedcentral.com)

  • Once the sanitary restrictions are lifted, circulation of seasonal respiratory viruses is expected to resume and will offer the opportunity to study their interactions, notably with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. (cdc.gov)
  • Some of these viruses cause relatively mild illnesses, while others can cause severe, life-threatening disease. (who.int)
  • Among them were severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), bird flu, swine flu, Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), ebola virus disease. (banglajol.info)
