Sherif R. Zaki,Patricia W. Greer,L M Coffield,Cynthia S. Goldsmith,Kurt B. Nolte,Kathy Foucar,Richard M. Feddersen,Ross E. Zumwalt,Gayle L. Miller,Ali S. Khan,Pierre E. Rollin,Thomas G. Ksiazek,Stuart T. Nichol,Brian W. J. Mahy,Clarence J. Peters +14 more
TL;DR: Pulmonary histopathological features were similar in most of the fatal HPS cases and consisted of an interstitial pneumonitis with a variable mononuclear cell infiltrate, edema, and focal hyaline membranes, however, pulmonary features were significantly different and included diffuse alveolar damage and variable degrees of severe air space disorganization.
Journal Article
Immunohistochemical and in situ localization of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus in human tissues and implications for CCHF pathogenesis.
F. J. Burt,R. Swanepoel,Wun-Ju Shieh,Jonathan F. Smith,P. A. Leman,Patricia W. Greer,L M Coffield,Pierre E. Rollin,Thomas G. Ksiazek,Clarence J. Peters,Sherif R. Zaki +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a case analysis of 12 patients with a diagnosis of CCHF infection, confirmed by virus isolation, who were evaluated at the Special Pathogens Unit, National Institute for Virology, South Africa.
Journal Article
Human papillomavirus infection and anal carcinoma. Retrospective analysis by in situ hybridization and the polymerase chain reaction
TL;DR: The highly sensitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in situ hybridization (ISH) techniques applied to detect HPV DNA in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from 18 patients confirmed the concept that HPV, in particular type 16, is implicated in the pathogenesis of anal cancer.
Journal Article
Retrospective diagnosis of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, 1978-1993: implications for emerging infectious diseases.

TL;DR: The findings from this study document the earlier existence of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, which was first recognized in 1993, and underscore the need for systematic archiving and analysis of clinical information and specimens from patients with diseases of unknown etiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sinonasal papillomas and human papillomavirus: human papillomavirus 11 detected in fungiform Schneiderian papillomas by in situ hybridization and the polymerase chain reaction.
Randy Judd,Randy Judd,Sherif R. Zaki,Sherif R. Zaki,L M Coffield,L M Coffield,Bruce L. Evatt,Bruce L. Evatt +7 more
TL;DR: The continued classification of fungiform papillomas as a distinctive variant of schneiderian papilloma characterized by a predominantly exophytic growth pattern and an association with HPV 11 is supported.
