<h4>Background</h4>Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) causes asthma-like respiratory infection in children. Several EV-D68 outbreaks have been reported worldwide since the largest outbreak occurred in the United States in 2014. We experienced an accumulation of pediatric cases with asthma-like respiratory illness in Niigata, Japan, in 2018.<h4>Study design</h4>To determine whether EV-D68 was responsible for ... Read more >>

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae have spread globally as one of the most common multidrug resistant organisms. Although a wide variety of ESBL genes were known in each geographical region, few reports existed on the distribution of ESBL genes in Japanese children. To clarify the distribution of ESBL genes, we investigated ... Read more >>

BACKGROUND:Febrile neonates and young infants presenting with seizure require immediate evaluation and treatment. Herein we experienced two young infants with parechovirus-A3 (PeV-A3) encephalitis, initially presented with focal seizure suspecting herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis. CASES:We have experienced 2 infantile cases, initially presented with focal seizure. At presentation, HSV encephalitis was ... Read more >>

AbstractBackgroundEnterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is a re-emerging, high-morbidity pathogen that causes severe respiratory infection and acute flaccid myelitis in children. EV-D68 is phylogenetically divided into 4 major groups—clade A through D—and each clade has subclades defined by genetic variant. Outbreaks of all strains have been reported in more than 10 countries. ... Read more >>

We propose a novel approach for simultaneously controlling the chirp and increasing the output power of an EADFB laser by monolithically integrating a short-cavity SOA. We achieved a 40-Gbit/s 5-km SMF transmission at a wavelength of 1.55 μm by using an EADFB SOA with a lower power consumption than a ... Read more >>

Enhancers are essential gene regulatory elements whose alteration can lead to morphological differences between species, developmental abnormalities, and human disease. Current strategies to identify enhancers focus primarily on noncoding sequences and tend to exclude protein coding sequences. Here, we analyzed 25 available ChIP-seq data sets that identify enhancers in an ... Read more >>
