  2. Ilheus #virus is a poorly known mosquito-transmitted neurotropic #flavivirus that can cause serious brain infections.

    Like some other neurotropic viruses, it is no longer detectable in blood once the symptoms have begun.

    A new meta-analysis aimed to quantify how common it is and found that in Brazil approximately 8% of the population showed serological exposure.

  3. I love how Cory Doctorow used the term #brainworm to describe destrctuive #memes. It is imperative that we denounce #neurotropic #nematodes when & wherever they appear. The #techindustry is flooded with them, finding themselves manifested in the #techbro, unsurprisingly mostly #visible as a #member of the #male form of our #species.

    In a 2022 article, Cory reviews some #drm #history. There is a constant in the #industry to #dominate and #control people via their devices.

    HPAI H5Nx viruses have a broad neurotropic potential and can efficiently infect and replicate in various #CNS cell types.
    Vaccination and/or antiviral therapy might in part prevent neuroinvasion and neurological disease following HPAI H5Nx virus infection, although comprehensive studies in this area are lacking.''

    Its an impressive list and a major scientific accomplishment. Most of the major risks and issues were at least pointed at in rough by the end of 2020.

    Not withstanding the six solid years of Merchants of Doubt suppression tactics, the Urgency of Normal risk minimization, and the political war to memory hole & normalize an ongoing pandemic, the shape of a systemic, multi-organ impacting, immune damaging, neurotropic vasculitis was visible in outline.

    The knowledge base has gotten much larger in six years, but the trend has gone in just one direction.

    Abstract

    Background: Usutu virus (Orthoflavivirus usutuense, USUV), a neurotropic arthropod-borne RNA virus of the family Flaviviridae, is a zoonotic virus that has spread throughout the European continent over the last three decades, since its emergence in Italy in 1996. However, no cases of USUV have been reported in Portugal so far.

    Material and methods: In the scope of an active surveillance program for Orthoflavivirus, we collected growing feather samples from 249 red-legged partridges (Alectoris rufa) hunted in southern Portugal during the 2021-2023 hunting seasons. Samples positive for USUV were subjected to whole genome sequencing and strain characterization.

    Results: Two partridges tested positive for USUV. Phylogenetic analyses of whole and partial genomes assigned the USUV strains to the African 3 lineage, specifically the African 3.1 sub-lineage.

    Conclusions: Our study confirms, for the first time, the circulation of USUV in wild birds in Portugal. Active surveillance of hunted partridges proved to be a useful, accessible, and cost-effective method for USUV monitoring, further supporting their value as effective sentinels for Orthoflavivirus surveillance. Given the ongoing circulation of USUV and the increasing risk of its spillover to other domestic and wild animals, and humans, additional efforts are needed to improve virus surveillance in Portugal from a One Health perspective.

    Neurological disease induced by #HPAI H5Nx viruses in mammals can manifest without clinical respiratory disease.
    HPAI H5Nx viruses are more #neuropathogenic than other influenza A viruses in mammals.
    Severe neurological disease in mammals is related to the neuroinvasive and neurotropic potential of HPAI H5Nx viruses.''

    The only problem with #NeuroTopic is you can't search on it (without knowing in advance what topic to search for). Twitter would show you things that got lots of likes from people you follow, so you would be alerted to it. Mastodon doesn't change what you see based on likes. So either people can boost them, and hope you are looking at the part of your timeline the boost appears in; or we need some hashtag you can regularly search for (or maybe there are more efficient ways to monitor a hashtag?).

    Could maybe combine them #NeuroThread #NeuroTopic
    and then could search for #NeuroThread? I was just afraid that only a single hashtag to search on would be used too often and so it wouldn't end up being a very informative signal. But maybe having more than 1 is too complex and simplicity wins over informativeness?
