Identification of a novel picornavirus related to cosaviruses in a child with acute diarrheaLori R Holtz
Department of Pediatrics, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO USA
Virol J 5:159. 2008..Based on the analysis discussed here, we propose that this virus represents a new species in the Cosavirus genus, and it has tentatively been named Human Cosavirus E1 (HCoSV-E1)...- Klassevirus 1, a previously undescribed member of the family Picornaviridae, is globally widespreadLori R Holtz
Department of Pediatrics, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA
Virol J 6:86. 2009..In an effort to identify novel viruses that may be causal agents of diarrhea, we used high throughput mass sequencing to analyze stool samples collected from patients with acute diarrhea... - Human stool contains a previously unrecognized diversity of novel astrovirusesStacy R Finkbeiner
Department of Molecular Microbiology and Pathology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO, USA
Virol J 6:161. 2009..Given that a significant fraction of diarrhea etiologies is currently unknown, it is plausible that these or other yet unrecognized astroviruses may be responsible for at least part of the undiagnosed cases... - Astrovirus MLB1 is not associated with diarrhea in a cohort of Indian childrenLori R Holtz
Department of Pediatrics, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri, United States of America
PLoS ONE 6:e28647. 2011..Furthermore, MLB1 viral load did not differ significantly between the cases and controls. The role of MLB1 in human health still remains unknown and future studies are needed... - Astrovirus MLB2 viremia in febrile childLori R Holtz
Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA
Emerg Infect Dis 17:2050-2. 2011..We detected MLB2 in the plasma of a febrile child, which suggests that MLB2 has broader tropism than expected and disease potential beyond the gastrointestinal tract... - Detection of newly described astrovirus MLB1 in stool samples from childrenStacy R Finkbeiner
Molecular Microbiology and Microbial Pathogenesis Program, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA
Emerg Infect Dis 15:441-4. 2009..Louis, Missouri, USA, was defined by reverse transcription-PCR. Of 254 stool specimens collected in 2008, 4 were positive for astrovirus MLB1. These results show that astrovirus MLB1 is circulating in North America... - Detection of novel sequences related to african Swine Fever virus in human serum and sewageJoy Loh
Department of Pathology and Immunology, Washington University School of Medicine, 660 S Euclid Ave, Box 8118, St Louis, MO 63110, USA
J Virol 83:13019-25. 2009..Detection of these sequences suggests that greater genetic diversity may exist among asfarviruses than previously thought and raises the possibility that human infection by asfarviruses may occur... - Acute bloody diarrhea: a medical emergency for patients of all agesLori R Holtz
Department of Pediatrics, Division of Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA
Gastroenterology 136:1887-98. 2009..These topics are discussed in the context of the medical care that is available to children and adults with bloody diarrhea in most institutions in developed nations...
