In the last decades, the scientific attention has been largely turned to a specific area of the clinical virology comprised by the emerging and reemerging viruses. This is due to the fact that these infectious agents have been recognized as a continuing threat to human health. Many of them can be transmitted by hemotherapy procedures including application of hemoderivatives or hematopoiet…
Human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) are viruses with widespread global distribution and high seroprevalence in the human population. Primary infections caused by this viral family are typically asymptomatic or present with nonspecific symptoms. Despite the persistent nature of these viruses, little is known about their occurrence in pediatric populations and the acute infection profile. The Mala…
Metagenomic methods are one of the most powerful tools for identifying emerging or little-known viruses. With the advent of new generation sequencing technologies (NGS) and taxonomic classifiers, it became possible to identify their content, associating the sequences found with their proper taxa. However, there are still sequences that are not associated with their proper taxa, which are …
Viral metagenomics is one of the most powerful tools for characterizing emerging orunsuspected infections in patients with an unconfirmed diagnosis. Using metagenomics,multiple viral agents have been identified so far, some with high pathogenic potential, thusenabling early clinical intervention and adequate treatment of affected patients. Febrileneutropenia is one of the most frequent li…
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies have shown accelerated growth in the recent years, thus allowing for massive generation of genomic data in a simultaneous, impartial and rapid way. One of the main applications of NGS is metagenomics, which contributes to the identification of emerging pathogens and genomic signatures, thus transforming the medical history. Although the world'…
