Borrelia bavariensis in Questing Ixodes ricinus Ticks, United Kingdom
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Oct;29(10):2173-2175. doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230907.ABSTRACTWe detected Borrelia bavariensis in Ixodes ricinus ticks collected near 2 towns in the United Kingdom. Human B. bavariensis infections have not been reported previously in the country, underscoring the value of tick surveillance to warn of emerging human disease. B. bavariensis should be considered in patients with suspected neuroborreliosis.PMID:37735806 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230907

Emergence of Novel Type C Botulism Strain in Household Outbreak, Japan
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Oct;29(10):2175-2177. doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230433.ABSTRACTIn 2021, an outbreak of food poisoning caused by Clostridium botulinum type C occurred in Kumamoto, Japan. Analysis of the isolated strain revealed that it possessed the bont/C gene and was slightly different from the reference bont/C gene. The risk for human infection with this new toxin type may be low.PMID:37735800 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230433

Human-to-Human Transmission of Andes Virus Modeled in Syrian Hamsters
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Oct;29(10):2159-2163. doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230544.ABSTRACTSeveral occurrences of human-to-human transmission of Andes virus, an etiological agent of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome, are documented. Syrian hamsters consistently model human hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome, yet neither transmission nor shedding has been investigated. We demonstrate horizontal virus transmission and show that Andes virus is shed efficiently from both inoculated and contact-infected hamsters.PMID:37735788 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230544

Antimicrobial Resistance in Slaughterhouses, Kenya
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Oct;29(10):2155-2158. doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230017.ABSTRACTSlaughterhouses are hotspots for the transmission of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens. We conducted stakeholder discussions on antimicrobial-resistant pathogens within the slaughterhouse setting. Butchers were described as powerful stakeholders; challenges included limited funding and staff, inadequate infrastructure, and limited laboratory capacity. Slaughterhouse workers understood that their work increased their risk for exposure.PMID:37735786 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230017

Bacillus subtilis Bacteremia from Gastrointestinal Perforation after Natto Ingestion, Japan
We report a case of Bacillus subtilis variant natto bacteremia from a gastrointestinal perforation in a patient who ingested natto. Genotypic methods showed the bacteria in a blood sample and the ingested natto were the same strains. Older or immunocompromised patients could be at risk for bacteremia from ingesting natto.PMID:37735785 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230084

Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Oct;29(10):2167-2170. doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230706.ABSTRACTRat lungworm (Angiostrongylus cantonensis), a zoonotic parasite invasive to the United States, causes eosinophilic meningoencephalitis. A. cantonensis harbors in rat reservoir hosts and is transmitted through gastropods and other paratenic hosts. We discuss the public health relevance of autochthonous A. cantonensis cases in brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.PMID:37735783 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230706

Human Tularemia Epididymo-Orchitis Caused by Francisella tularensis Subspecies holartica, Austria
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Oct;29(10):2105-2107. doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230436.ABSTRACTA previously healthy man in Austria had tularemia epididymo-orchitis develop, leading to unilateral orchiectomy. Francisella tularensis subspecies holartica was detected by 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis of inflamed granulomatous testicular tissue. Clinicians should suspect F. tularensis as a rare etiologic microorganism in epididymo-orchitis patients with relevant risk factors.PMID:37735772 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230436

Outbreak of Sexually Transmitted Nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis-Associated Urethritis, Vietnam
We report on an outbreak of nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis-associated urethritis, primarily among men who have sex with men in southern Vietnam. Nearly 50% of N. meningitidis isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin. This emerging pathogen should be considered in the differential diagnosis and management of urethritis.PMID:37735771 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.221596

Oncolytic virus oHSV2 combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors exert antitumor activity by mediating CD4 + T and CD8 + T cell infiltration in the lymphoma tumor microenvironment
Autoimmunity. 2023 Dec;56(1):2259126. doi: 10.1080/08916934.2023.2259126. Epub 2023 Sep 22.ABSTRACTA novel therapeutic regimen showed that the oncolytic type II herpes simplex virus (oHSV2) was able to prevent colorectal cancer growth, recurrence, and metastasis. However, no study has yet explored whether oHSV2 has an impact on the development of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We chose the clinical chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) as a positive control to evaluate the effect of oHSV2 infection on the apoptotic, invasive, and proliferative capacity of DLBCL cells. We next further explored the therapeutic effi...

Giant cell lichenoid dermatitis within healed varicella zoster site
Clin Case Rep. 2023 Sep 19;11(9):e7585. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.7585. eCollection 2023 Sep.ABSTRACTThere are dermatoses that arise within healed zosteriform sites, such as granulomas annulare, acneiform eruptions, psoriasis, lichen planus, and giant cell lichenoid dermatitis "GCLD." Nonetheless, graft-versus-host disease should be considered and ruled out, especially in patients post-bone marrow transplant. Herein, we report a case of GCLD manifesting within healed zosteriform sites.PMID:37736473 | PMC:PMC10509341 | DOI:10.1002/ccr3.7585

Herpetic Esophagitis: A Cause of Dysphagia in a Malnourished Patient
Cureus. 2023 Aug 21;15(8):e43858. doi: 10.7759/cureus.43858. eCollection 2023 Aug.ABSTRACTHerpetic esophagitis (HE) is an esophageal infection caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV). Although less common, it can occasionally affect immunocompetent hosts. It can manifest as odynophagia and/or dysphagia and should lead to an investigation by upper digestive endoscopy with a biopsy. The authors report a case of a 65-year-old man with a past medical history relevant for schizophrenia, oligophrenia, and malnutrition, and no other history or evidence of immunosuppression, who presented with severe dysphagia over weeks and recent e...
