Human Leptospirosis: Seroreactivity and Genetic Susceptibility in the Population of Sao Miguel Island (Azores, Portugal)

  • Authors: Branco CC, Bulhões SM, Cabral R, Esteves LM, Mota FM, Mota-Vieira ML, Paiva C, Vieira ML
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: PLoS One
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25255143

We conducted, in 2011, a retrospective hospital-based case-control study in the São Miguel Island population (Azores archipelago). In order to determine the seropositivity against pathogenic Leptospira after the first episode of leptospirosis, we performed a serological evaluation in 97 unrelated participants diagnosed with leptospirosis between 1992 and 2011.

HIV-2 Integrase Polymorphisms and Longitudinal Genotypic Analysis of HIV-2 Infected Patients Failing a Raltegravir-Containing Regimen

  • Authors: Abecasis A, Aguas MJ, Almeida I, Camacho RJ, Cavaco-Silva J, Cunha C, Diniz A, Germano I, Gomes P, Gonçalves Mde F, Maltez F, Miranda AC, Narciso J, Poças J, Portuguese HIV-2 Resistance Study Group
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: PLoS One
  • Link: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0092747

To characterize the HIV-2 integrase gene polymorphisms and the pathways to resistance of HIV-2 patients failing a raltegravir-containing regimen, we studied 63 integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTI)-naïve patients, and 10 heavily pretreated patients exhibiting virological failure while receiving a salvage raltegravir-containing regimen.
