Gilda Grard,Mélanie Caron,Illich Manfred Mombo,Dieudonné Nkoghe,Statiana Mboui Ondo,Davy Jiolle,Didier Fontenille,Christophe Paupy,Eric M. Leroy +8 more
TL;DR: The first direct evidence of human ZIKV infections in Gabon is provided, and its first occurrence in the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring terrestrial subsidies to aquatic food webs using stable isotopes of hydrogen.
TL;DR: The consistent differences between leaves and algae in deltaD among these four watersheds, along with the intermediate values in higher trophic levels, indicate that natural abundance hydrogen isotope signatures are a powerful tool for partitioning energy flow in aquatic ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Introduction and Rapid Dissemination of Chikungunya Virus and Dengue Virus Serotype 2 Associated With Human and Mosquito Coinfections in Gabon, Central Africa
Mélanie Caron,Christophe Paupy,Gilda Grard,Pierre Becquart,Illich M Mombo,Branly Bikie Bi Nso,Fabrice Kassa Kassa,Dieudonné Nkoghe,Eric M. Leroy +8 more
TL;DR: Findings show the rapid dissemination of CHIKV and DENV-2 within a nonimmune population in a tropical African country, probably facilitated by the spread of Aedes albopictus, has resulted in major simultaneous outbreaks with numerous coinfections in both human and mosquito.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chikungunya, a paradigm of neglected tropical disease that emerged to be a new health global risk.
TL;DR: This review highlights the most recent advances in the knowledge and understanding of the epidemiology, biology, treatment and vaccination strategies of CHIKV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Hepatitis B and Delta Viruses in Pregnant Women in Gabon: Molecular Evidence that Hepatitis Delta Virus Clade 8 Originates from and Is Endemic in Central Africa
Maria Makuwa,Mélanie Caron,Sandrine Souquière,Gabriel Malonga-Mouelet,Antoine Mahé,Mirdad Kazanji +5 more
TL;DR: The results provide clear evidence that HDV clade 8 is indigenous to Africa, and the HBV strains were of the A3 and E genotypes.
