    Estimates of the global burden of Japanese encephalitis and the impact of vaccination from 2000-2015

    Tran Minh Quan, Tran Thi Nhu Thao ... Hannah Clapham
    Modelling analysis reveals the burden of Japanese Encephalitis is greater than previously thought, and although vaccination has reduced burden, there are remaining places with a great need for vaccination.

    Lives saved with vaccination for 10 pathogens across 112 countries in a pre-COVID-19 world

    Jaspreet Toor, Susy Echeverria-Londono ... Katy AM Gaythorpe
    Vaccination activities that occurred before the COVID-19 pandemic, 2000-2019, are estimated to avert 50 million deaths, highlighting the enormous benefits of continued and improving vaccination.

    Nationally-representative serostudy of dengue in Bangladesh allows generalizable disease burden estimates

    Henrik Salje, Kishor Kumar Paul ... Emily Gurley
    To maximize broad insight on disease burden, seroprevalence studies should be generalizable to the wider population, both in age and location.

    RNA structures that resist degradation by Xrn1 produce a pathogenic Dengue virus RNA

    Erich G Chapman, Stephanie L Moon ... Jeffrey S Kieft
    The Dengue virus contains discretely folded RNA structures that confer the ability to resist a powerful host cell enzyme and produce a disease-inducing noncoding RNA.

    Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences from 33 globally distributed mosquito species for improved metagenomics and species identification

    Cassandra Koh, Lionel Frangeul ... Maria-Carla Saleh
    A score-based read selection strategy enables the assembly of novel full-length ribosomal RNA sequences for mosquitoes, which improves the physical and computational removal of interfering ribosomal RNA reads in RNA-seq and provides another molecular marker for taxonomic and phylogenetic inquiries.

    Epitope resurfacing on dengue virus-like particle vaccine preparation to induce broad neutralizing antibody

    Wen-Fan Shen, Jedhan Ucat Galula ... Day-Yu Chao
    Despite size heterogeneity, an epitope-resurfaced mature-form dengue VLP has the potential to induce quaternary structure-recognizing broad cross-reactive neutralizing antibodies.

    Evolution of a functionally intact but antigenically distinct DENV fusion loop

    Rita M Meganck, Deanna Zhu ... Longping V Tse
    Operating as a serum profiling tool for dengue infection and vaccination, the D2-FLM variant, which is insensitive to antibody-dependent enhancement-prone fusion loop antibodies, also offers potential for a safer dengue virus vaccine.

    Broadly neutralizing human antibodies against dengue virus identified by single B cell transcriptomics

    Natasha D Durham, Aditi Agrawal ... Leslie Goo
    Identification of viral and host determinants of broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting a new epitope on dengue virus that can be used to guide vaccine design.

    Evidence of human infection by a new mammarenavirus endemic to Southeastern Asia

    Kim R Blasdell, Veasna Duong ... Philippe Buchy
    New mammarenaviruses have been identified from rodents in Cambodia and Thailand, and the Cardamones variant of Wēnzhōu virus has been found in Cambodian patients presenting with fever and respiratory symptoms.
