The Evaluation of Potential Zika, Chikungunya, and Dengue Infections in Mexico

Zika Virus Disease (Disorder)Dengue1 more

This study will evaluate subjects with fever and/or rash to determine the percentage of those infected by the Zika, Chikungunya, or Dengue virus. The study will also compare the clinical signs, symptoms, and lab abnormalities related to each virus, to better specify each virus's characteristics.

Zika in Infants and Pregnancy (ZIP)

Zika Virus Disease (Disorder)

The overall objective of this multisite, multicountry Zika in Infants and Pregnancy (ZIP) study is to assess the strength of the association between Zika virus infection (ZIKV) during pregnancy and adverse maternal/fetal outcomes and the risk of vertical transmission. The study will prospectively enroll a cohort of pregnant women up to 17 weeks and 6 days gestation and subjects at any gestational age with acute Zika infection, confirmed by serology or PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test. The study will follow these women through their pregnancy to identify for clinical evidence of acute ZIKV, while controlling for potential confounders. Outcomes in the women, the developing fetus, and infants will be assessed. All protocol-specified data will be recorded and entered in a central data management system for the purposes of analysis of composite data from the study.

Study on the Persistence of Zika Virus (ZIKV) in Body Fluids of Patients With ZIKV Infection in...

Zika Virus

The Zika infection is a viral disease that is transmitted to humans by the same mosquito that transmits Dengue and Chikungunya fever. The Zika virus has been found in various body fluids such as urine, blood and semen, but we do not know how long it persists in these fluids. For example, parts of the virus were reported to persist in semen after six months of the onset of symptoms, but we do not know if the virus can stay longer. In this way, we want to investigate how long the Zika virus can be found in other secretions besides blood and urine. Study Hypothesis: ZIKV can be shed in human body fluids long after the time of the acute infection. Persistence of ZIKV in different body fluids may vary due to the influence of circulating specific ZIKV IgM and IgG, as well as host and environmental factors.

Zika Virus Infection's Pregnancy Consequences in French Department of America

Incidence of ZIKV Infection on Fetus During the Pregnancy

The Zika (ZIKV) epidemic has spread into the three French Overseas Departments in the Caribbean (DFAs). It is therefore urgent to set up tools to collect clinical and paraclinical data for the evaluation of potential complications due to having ZIKV infection during pregnancy. This study is meant to collect, within usual care practices, clinical and paraclinical information which will allow the precise description of the consequences of ZIKV infection occurring during pregnancy.

Sensorimotor Outcomes of Children Exposed to Foetal Zika Virus Infection

Zika Virus Infection

Introduction: It is estimated that more than one million Brazilians were infected by zika virus in the last two years. Brazilian researchers first noted the virus's potential association with microcephaly. Objective: This study aimed to describe the motor performance of children aged between 6-18 months with the diagnoses of congenital Zika syndrome. Method: This is a cross-sectional, prospective and descriptive study. The study population consisted of 31 children. Participants were evaluated using Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) and Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM).

Understanding Excretion and Infectivity of Zika Virus in Semen During and After Infection

Zika Virus

In this prospective observational study the investigators will report on 20 male subjects with proven WHO-classification Zika infection. These subjects will be followed up for a maximum of 12 months to observe the presence, viral load and infectivity of Zika virus (ZIKV) in semen over time.

Evaluation of Medical Conditions Associated With Zika Virus Infection in Managua, Nicaragua

Zika Virus

Zika virus (ZIKV) infection spread throughout the Americas with devastating consequences. Recent limited evidence suggests the potential for neurological effects associated with postnatally acquired ZIKV infection in humans; however, the impact on children is unknown. The researchers will conduct a longitudinal study of approximately 450 Nicaraguan children who were ages 2-12 in 2016 to evaluate the presence and persistence of neurological symptoms associated with ZIKV infection and to test whether ZIKV-infected children are at greater risk for developing neurological outcomes compared to uninfected children.

Adherence to Care for Children With Congenital Zika Virus Infection in Puerto Rico

Zika Virus InfectionAdherence1 more

Given the magnitude of the epidemic in Puerto Rico, congenital Zika virus infection may have devastating complications to a significant population of children, also affecting families and society at large. This proposal takes a critical first step to ensuring that children with exposure to congenital Zika virus infection receive the follow-up care they need for optimal clinical outcomes. We anticipate that lessons learned from this study may also positively impact models for adherence to early intervention services in Puerto Rico.

Vertical Exposure to Zika Virus and Its Consequences for Child Neurodevelopment (ZIKVIRUSIFF)

ZIKA VIRUS INFECTIONChild Development1 more

The recent increase in the number of cases of congenital microcephaly observed in Brazil is a reason of great concern. This increase occurred a few months after Zika virus (ZIKV) was introduced in the country, which was associated with reports of pregnant women presenting fever and rash illness during pregnancy. Thus, the hypothesis of a relationship between ZIKV infection and microcephaly became plausible. However, studies on the pathophysiology of maternal ZIKV infection, its consequences for the fetus, and the development of severe encephalopathy are still needed. Knowledge about the natural history of vertical transmission and its association with changes in fetal development in early life is still scarce. Studies on factors which determine the severity and clinical evolution, such as inflammatory response mechanisms, viral evolution, and development of serological tests to identify ZIKV infection, are still needed. The Aedes aegypti is responsible for the transmission of various types of viruses of interest to human health. Currently, it is primarily responsible for the transmission of the dengue, chikungunya, and ZIKV in epidemic proportions. In addition, it is not yet known whether there is an interaction between these viruses and whether the interaction can determine the severity of the disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate the natural history of ZIKV disease in two cohorts( pregnant women and children) starting with pregnant women or newborns or evennursing mothers, identifying risk biomarkers, mapping the anti-viral inflammatory response, evaluating the molecular evolution of the virus,which areimportant to determine the mechanisms of vertical viral infection and verify children neurodevelopment from birth to the end of 3rd year of life.
