Abstract Understanding risk factors for Ebola transmission is key for effective prediction and design of interventions. We used data on 860 cases in 129 chains of transmission from the latter half of the 2013–2016 Ebola epidemic in Guinea. Using negative binomial regression, we determined characteristics associated with the number of secondary cases resulting from each infected individual. We found that attending an Ebola treatment unit was associated with a 38% decrease in secondary cases (incidence ...

In March, 2016, a flare-up of Ebola virus disease was reported in Guinea, and in response ring vaccination with the unlicensed rVSV-ZEBOV vaccine was introduced under expanded access, the first time that an Ebola vaccine has been used in an outbreak setting outside a clinical trial. Here we describe the safety of rVSV-ZEBOV candidate vaccine and operational feasibility of ring vaccination as a reactive strategy in a resource-limited rural setting.Approval for expanded access and compassionate use ...

Abstract Transmission trees can be established through detailed contact histories, statistical or phylogenetic inference, or a combination of methods. Each approach has its limitations, and the extent to which they succeed in revealing a ‘true’ transmission history remains unclear. In this study, we compared the transmission trees obtained through contact tracing investigations and various inference methods to identify the contribution and value of each approach. We studied eighty-six sequenced cases ...

Demons-Meigs syndrome combines a benign tumor of the ovary with thoracic and abdominal effusion, it is a rare disease whose pathophysiological mechanism is not yet well understood. This rare syndrome often gives rise to fear of ovarian neoplasia due to the existence of ascites and the significant elevation of CA 125. In this observation, we report the case of Demons-Meigs syndrome diagnosed in a 36-year-old young woman who presented with pleural and peritoneal effusion syndrome with an ovarian mass ...
