Pooled Cohort Profile: ReCoDID Consortium’s Harmonized Acute Febrile Illness Arbovirus Meta-Cohort

Pooled Cohort Profile: ReCoDID Consortium’s Harmonized Acute Febrile Illness Arbovirus Meta-Cohort

The interactions between immune responses caused by different patterns of exposure over time to the 4 dengue virus serotypes (DENV 1-4) and Zika virus (ZIKV) have attracted considerable attention—for example, as a mechanism to explain the heterogeneity in severe dengue but also in the severe outcomes seen during and after the ZIKV epidemic in Latin America [2-6].

Reddit and Google Activity Related to Non-COVID Epidemic Diseases Surged at Start of COVID-19 Pandemic: Retrospective Study

Reddit and Google Activity Related to Non-COVID Epidemic Diseases Surged at Start of COVID-19 Pandemic: Retrospective Study

This study retrospectively uses large public data sets, such as Google Trends and Reddit, to estimate the level of public interest in 6 non-COVID epidemic diseases (chikungunya, Ebola, H1 N1 influenza, Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome [MERS], severe acute respiratory syndrome [SARS], and Zika virus) from 2018 through the end of 2020.

WhatsApp-Based Focus Groups Among Mexican-Origin Women in Zika Risk Area: Feasibility, Acceptability, and Data Quality

WhatsApp-Based Focus Groups Among Mexican-Origin Women in Zika Risk Area: Feasibility, Acceptability, and Data Quality

For a pilot test of Whats App as a focus group platform, we recruited Latina women in a Zika virus risk area (southern Arizona) to assess their knowledge of Zika virus infection in women who are pregnant or may become pregnant. Secondarily, we queried participants’ preferences for receiving health messages on the web.

Automated Travel History Extraction From Clinical Notes for Informing the Detection of Emergent Infectious Disease Events: Algorithm Development and Validation

Automated Travel History Extraction From Clinical Notes for Informing the Detection of Emergent Infectious Disease Events: Algorithm Development and Validation

The goal of the system in 2017 and 2018 was not only to evaluate the travel in the context of Zika and other emerging arboviral diseases at the time but also with the intent to expand the system to support the surveillance of other emerging infectious diseases. To that effect, this capability was used during a brief window to monitor the initial spread of COVID-19 infections in the United States.

Identifying Influential Factors in the Discussion Dynamics of Emerging Health Issues on Social Media: Computational Study

Identifying Influential Factors in the Discussion Dynamics of Emerging Health Issues on Social Media: Computational Study

H2: The tweeting dynamics of Zika was associated with and influenced by a few real-world critical events, other than the continuous Zika epidemic. H3: The tweeting dynamics of Zika were driven by a few highly influential users (colloquially referred to as influentials hereafter), which led to the public discourse of Zika on Twitter.

Associations of Topics of Discussion on Twitter With Survey Measures of Attitudes, Knowledge, and Behaviors Related to Zika: Probabilistic Study in the United States

Associations of Topics of Discussion on Twitter With Survey Measures of Attitudes, Knowledge, and Behaviors Related to Zika: Probabilistic Study in the United States

This research suggests that Twitter may be useful in identifying discussion topics in the Zika domain as well. In this study, we investigated the possibility of discovering topics of discussion on Twitter that are related to the ongoing public health challenge of Zika virus and whether their variations reveal important information regarding changes of Zika-related attitudes, knowledge, and behaviors of populations over time.
