| [preliminary study on epidemic hemorrhagic fever (ehf) in guizhou province]. | during 1962-1986, ehf cases have been reported in 50 out of 82 counties in guizhou province. it was high in northern guizhou province. however, serological survey of the population showed that endemic area extended to 51 counties. the inapparent infection rate ranged from 0 to 4.04%. in 76 out of 82 counties the rodents were found to carry hantavirus. apodemus agrarius of zunyi county of guizhou and rattus norvegicus of the eastern and south guizhou are important reservoirs of ehf. hantavirus ha ... | 1989 | 2567626 |
| genetic characterization of hantaviruses isolated from guizhou, china: evidence for spillover and reassortment in nature. | to gain more insights into the epidemiology of hantaviruses in the guizhou province, china, rodents were captured in guizhou during the period from 2001 to 2003. in addition, serum sample was collected from one patient. virus isolation was attempted from human serum and rodent samples. four hantaviruses were isolated successfully in cell culture from one human, two a. agrarius, and one r. norvegicus. the nucleotide sequences for the entire s and m and partial l segment were determined from these ... | 2008 | 18428127 |
| hantaviruses in rodents and humans, xi'an, pr china. | xi'an, the capital of shaanxi province, located in north-west china, is one of the major endemic areas for haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (hfrs). in this study, the epidemiological data of hfrs in xi'an from 1959 to 2010, especially in the past ten years (2001-2010), were surveyed. the features of hantavirus (hv) host carriers, the molecular characteristics of the hv s gene from hosts and patients, and the genome of the viral isolate were also investigated. data showed that there might b ... | 2012 | 22837422 |
