Background: There are few studies on HIV subtypes and primary and secondary antiretroviral drug resistance (ADR) in community-recruited samples in Brazil. We analyzed HIV clade diversity and prevalence of mutations associated with ADR in men who have sex with men in all five regions of Brazil. Methods: Using respondent-driven sampling, we recruited 3515 men who have sex with men in nine cities: 299 (9.5%) were HIV-positive; 143 subjects had adequate genotyping and epidemiologic data. Forty-four (30. ...

Several species of snails, including Pomacea haustrum, Marisa cornuarietis and Helisoma duryi, have been identified as probable competitors and/or predators of planorbid intermediate hosts of Schistosoma. During the last few years, studies carried out in the Caribbean region have shown reductions and even disappearances of populations of Biomphalaria glabrata and B. straminea in breeding places where the snail Melanoides tuberculata was introduced. Observations made over a period of 10 years in ...

Zika virus infection has been linked to an increase in the number of infants born with microcephaly in Brazil, but direct experimental proof that Zika virus causes birth defects was lacking. Here Alysson Muotri and colleagues show that the Brazilian Zika virus strain can cross the placenta and cause intrauterine growth restriction, including signs of microcephaly, in the SJL strain of mice. They also show that the virus can infect human brain organoids, inducing cell death by apoptosis and disrupting ...
