Analysis of google trends and search results for ophthalmic symptoms of monkeypox
ConclusionSearch interest in monkeypox ophthalmic symptoms corresponds with geographic and temporal trends, i.e., timing and location of the first reported non-endemic cases and WHO announcement. Although ophthalmic symptoms are not as widely searched currently, inclusion in public health messaging is key for diagnosis, appropriate management, and reduction of further transmission.

Parasitological and molecular search for leishmania natural infection in phlebotomine sand flies in peri-urban sites of an argentinean area endemic for tegumentary leishmaniasis
Acta Trop. 2021 Jul 21:106064. doi: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2021.106064. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLeishmaniases are neglected tropical diseases caused by Leishmania spp. parasites transmitted by the bite of phlebotomine sand flies. In Argentina, the most endemic area of American Tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL) has been Orán department, Province of Salta, where Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis prevails and Nyssomyia neivai is considered as its vector, although there is no accurate and sufficient information in this regard. The aim of this work was to search for natural infection by Leishmania spp. in sand flies from pe...

The Omicron-transformer: Rise of the subvariants in the age of vaccines
CONCLUSION: Due to current high levels of vaccine- and infection-induced immunity, it is likely that rates of severe illness, hospitalisation, and death due to Omicron will continue to moderate. Nevertheless, the virus is ever-changing, and public health policies, especially those related to vaccinations, will also have to continually evolve and adapt as COVID-19 transitions to endemicity.PMID:36453218 | DOI:10.47102/annals-acadmedsg.2022294

Prevalence of chloroquine resistance alleles among Plasmodium falciparum parasites in countries affected by malaria disease since change of treatment policy: a systematic review protocol
DiscussionThe review seeks to establish the extent of chloroquine resistance reversal in malaria-endemic countries. The evidence generated from this review will help guide policy makers on the potential re-emerging role of chloroquine in malaria treatment.Systematic review registrationThe systematic review protocol has been registered in PROSPERO with registration number CRD42018083957.

Real-time estimation of disease activity in emerging outbreaks using internet search information
by Emily L. Aiken, Sarah F. McGough, Maimuna S. Majumder, Gal Wachtel, Andre T. Nguyen, Cecile Viboud, Mauricio Santillana Understanding the behavior of emerging disease outbreaks in, or ahead of, real-time could help healthcare officials better design interventions to mitigate impacts on affected populations. Most healthcare-based disease surveillance systems, however, have significant inherent reporting delays due t o data collection, aggregation, and distribution processes. Recent work has shown that machine learning methods leveraging a combination of traditionally collected epidemiological information and novel Inter...
