Jenni Virtanen,Kirsi Aaltonen,Anna-Maria Moisander-Jylhä,Heli Nordgren,Lília Márcia Paulin,Juuso Peura,Olli Vapalahti,Rashmi Kant,Tarja Sironen +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , the effects of breeding based on overall health, production traits, and antibody titer on Aleutian disease severity was studied by comparing a positive farm (farm 1) that has been breeding for tolerance in mink to an infected farm without tolerance selection, and an AMDV-free farm.
Population-based seroprevalence of Puumala hantavirus in Finland: smoking as a risk factor
Francesca Latronico,Francesca Latronico,S. Maki,Harri Rissanen,Jukka Ollgren,Outi Lyytikäinen,Olli Vapalahti,Jussi Sane +7 more
TL;DR: The seroprevalence of PUUV in Finland was estimated by using unique survey data with health register linkage and significant dose-response relations were found for the number of cigarettes smoked daily.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article , a sample from one patient comprised a major variant with 3 lineage B.3-specific mutations and a minor variant with ancestral B.1 nucleotides, suggesting either ongoing APOBEC3 enzyme-mediated evolution or co-infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Questionnaire survey of detrimental fur animal epidemic necrotic pyoderma in Finland.
TL;DR: FENP was most likely introduced to Finland by imported mink and spread further within the country via domestically purchased fur animals, and blocking the entry of wildlife to the animal premises protected fur animals against FENP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping of human B-cell epitopes of Sindbis virus
TL;DR: It is observed that one of the capsid protein epitopes shares six identical amino acids with macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) receptor, which is linked to inflammatory diseases and to molecular pathology of alphaviral arthritides.
