Numerical simulation of the fate, transport and public health risks of enteric viruses in Lake Geneva
Lakes are a fundamental feature of nature with brilliance, profoundness and complexity. Various of physical, chemical and biological changes take place three dimensionally in deep lakes, regulated by complicated boundary conditions. To understand and predi ...
EPFL2023Preliminary evidence that daily light exposure enhances the antibody response to influenza vaccination in patients with dementia
Enhancing lighting conditions in institutions for individuals with dementia improves their sleep, circadian rhythms and well-being. Here, we report first findings that exposure to brighter light during daytime may support the immune response to the annual ...
ELSEVIER2022Neonatal-Onset Familial Mediterranean Fever in an Infant with Human Parainfluenza Virus-4 Infection
Unusual, severe infections or inflammatory episodes in newborns and infants are largely unexplained and often attributed to immature immune responses. Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are increasingly recognized as the etiology of life-threatening inflammat ...
KARGER2021Using open-access data to explore the relationship between urban morphology and diarrhoeal diseases in Côte d’Ivoire
Jérôme Chenal, Vitor Pessoa Colombo, Jürg Utzinger
Little is known about the impacts of morphological indicators that can be derived from the physical environment on the risk of diarrhoeal diseases. Given Africa’s recent explosive urbanisation rates and rapid changes in landscape, coupled with a high burde ...
2021Unveiling Viruses Associated with Gastroenteritis Using a Metagenomics Approach
Acute infectious gastroenteritis is an important illness worldwide, especially on children, with viruses accounting for approximately 70% of the acute cases. A high number of these cases have an unknown etiological agent and the rise of next generation seq ...
MDPI2020Inborn errors of type I IFN immunity in patients with life-threatening COVID-19
Jacques Fellay, Rui Yang, Jie Chen, Yu Zhang, Xavier Duval, Peng Zhang, Qian Zhang, Zhiyong Liu, Juan Li
Clinical outcome upon infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ranges from silent infection to lethal coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We have found an enrichment in rare variants predicted to be loss-of-function (LOF ...
AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE2020Enhancing daily light exposure increases the antibody response to influenza vaccination in patients with dementia
Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Mirjam Münch
Enhancing lighting conditions in institutions for individuals with dementia improves their sleep, circadian rhythms and well-being. Here, we tested whether a greater long-term daily light exposure supports the immune response to the annual influenza vaccin ...
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press2020Towards sustainable sanitation: Identifying and mitigating microbial health risks in the production of urine-derived fertilizers
Tamar Kohn, Simon Schindelholz, Timothy R. Julian
Sanitation systems that systematically recover and reuse waste can promote social enterprise, reduce discharge of harmful nutrients, pathogens and other contaminants to the environment, replace synthetic fertilizer sources, and increase access to sanitatio ...
2017Spatially explicit modeling of cholera epidemics
Understanding the epidemiology of cholera, when and where it occurs and how it spreads, is key to its prevention and control. Models can help to apprehend cholera outbreaks by providing insight into critical epidemiological processes, and may be used to ev ...
EPFL2017Sensitive and fast identification of bacteria in blood samples by immunoaffinity mass spectrometry for quick BSI diagnosis
Hubert Girault, Horst Pick, Niels Erik Lion, Natalia Gasilova, Liang Qiao, Michel Prudent, Yingdi Zhu, Alexandra Bondarenko
Bloodstream infections rank among the most serious causes of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients, partly due to the long period (up to one week) required for clinical diagnosis. In this work, we have developed a sensitive method to quickly and ...
