AB  - West Nile virus (WNV) is a zoonotic mosquito-borne virus classified as family Flaviviridae and genus Flavivirus. The first WNV outbreak in humans in the Republic of Serbia was recorded in 2012. Equids and dogs can show clinical symptoms after WNV infection and are often used as sentinels. This study aimed to (i) give insight into seropositivity for WNV in clinically healthy dog and horse sera in different regions of Serbia and (ii) compare diagnostic value of ‘in-house’ and commercially available indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) and enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) tests to ‘gold standard’ virus neutralization test (VNT). Due to cross-reactivity, sera were tested for Usutu virus and tick-borne encephalitis virus in VNT based on the epidemiological data of field presence. Blood sera of dogs (n = 184) and horses (n = 232) were collected from 2011 to 2013. The seropositivity was confirmed by VNT in 36.9 % tested dog sera and 34.9% tested horse sera with highest positivity in regions near two big rivers, while in four dog and seven horse sera, positivity resulted from Usutu virus infection. Comparative results of diagnostic tests in dogs ranged from 18.7 % seropositivity by ‘in-house’ ELISA to 31.9% by commercially available ELISA. In horses, seropositivity ranged from 36.2% by ‘in-house’ IFA to 32.5% by commercially available IFA and from 26.3% by ‘in-house’ IgG ELISA to 20.9% by commercially available ELISA. There were no statistically significant differences according to the McNemar test between ‘in-house’ and commercially available IFA and ELISA test in horse sera, while the same was not true for two ELISAs used in dog sera (χ2 = 8.647, p = .003). Established seropositivity in dogs and horses was in accordance with the epidemiological situation and WNV spread in the Republic of Serbia and proven Usutu virus co-circulation. ‘In-house’ tests remain a valuable tool in early diagnostics of WNV.

AB  - In 1967, several workers involved in poliomyelitis vaccine development and production fell ill at three different locations in Europe with a severe and often lethal novel disease associated with grivets (Chlorocebus aethiops) imported from Uganda. This disease was named Marburg virus disease (MVD) after the West German town of Marburg an der Lahn, where most human infections and deaths had been recorded. Consequently, the Marburg episode received the most scientific and media attention. Cases that occurred in Frankfurt am Main, West Germany, were also described in commonly accessible scientific literature, although they were less frequently cited than those pertaining to the Marburg infections. However, two infections occurring in a third location, in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, have seemingly been all but forgotten. Due in part to their absence in commonly used databases and in part to the fact that they were written in languages other than English, the important articles describing this part of the outbreak are very rarely cited. Here, we summarize this literature and correct published inaccuracies to remind a younger generation of scientists focusing on Marburg virus and its closest filoviral relatives of this important historical context. Importantly, and unfortunately, the three episodes of infection of 1967 still represent the best in-depth clinical look at MVD in general and in the context of "modern" medicine (fully resourced versus less-resourced capacity) in particular. Hence, each individual case of these episodes holds crucial information for health care providers who may be confronted with MVD today.

AB  - Background: Hantaviruses are etiological agents of emerging zoonotic diseases worldwide, including hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). A number of hantavirus species is known to be present in Europe. In Serbia, existing data on hantavirus presence and prevalence rely in serological findings. In this study, molecular analysis was performed in order to characterize HFRS causing hantaviruses in Serbia. Methods: Sixty four serum samples of HFRS cases, previously found seropositive to anti-hantaviral anti-bodies, were included in the study. Partial hantaviral L and S segments were PCR amplified producing 390nt and 598nt amplicons, respectively, in parallel with human beta-actin mRNA as external reverse transcription positive control. Hantavirus specific PCR products were DNA sequenced in both direction and the obtained sequences phylogenetically confirmed and analyzed. Results: PCR detection of hantavirus L and S genome segments was positive in 18/64 and 11/64 tested samples, respectively. Positive PCR results involved samples obtained from different locations, mostly from central and southern parts of Serbia. All the obtained sequences were identified as Dobrava-Belgrade virus (DOBV). In the phylogenetic analysis sequences from Serbia tended to cluster in distinctive, geographically related clusters. Conclusions: Our findings indicate DOBV as the main HFRS causing hantavirus in Serbia, the site of its initial isolation.

AB  - Canine Monocytic Ehrlichiosis is a zoonotic bacterial disease with worldwide distribution. With regards to the population of stray dogs, the disease is facilitated due to their lifestyle and the lack of anti-parasitic protection. The aim of this study was to provide serological data on the presence of a specific Ehrlichia canis IgG antibodies in stray dogs, originating from 7 municipalities in Serbia. During the period from April 2013 to June 2014, 217 canine sera were submitted to the laboratory of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Animals and Bees, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Belgrade. An immunofluorescent antibody test (IFAT) was performed to detect antibodies to Ehrlichia canis (cut off, 1: 50). Seropositive dogs were found in 5 out of 7 counties with a seroprevalence varying from 3.57% to 20% and an overall seroprevalence of 11.06% (24/217). There was no statistically significant difference between the prevalence of infection and the host age or gender. Results showed that stray dogs contribute to maintaining and spreading of Ehrlichia canis in Serbia. Due to the close relationship between people and dogs, it is of great importance to constantly monitor and improve prevention of this disease.

AB  - Variola (smallpox) virus is classified as class A of potential biological weapons, due to its microbiological, genetic, antigenic and epidemiological characteristics. The potential danger is more real because vaccination against smallpox has stopped since disease eradication in 1979. That is why we want to share our unique, rich experience and acquired knowledge in the fight against this highly contagious and deadly disease during the smallpox outbreak in ex-Yugoslavia in 1972. It was the largest postwar outbreak in Europe when there were officially registered 175 ill patients, 35 of them with lethal outcome. This outbreak was specific by the time of its occurrence, the affected territory, dimensions and some epidemiological characteristics, but also by the well-organized, synchronized and efficient reaction of the competent state services in the fight against it.

AB  - Hantaviruses are endemic in the Balkans, particularly in Serbia, where sporadic cases and/or outbreaks of hantaviral human disease have been reported repeatedly, and evidenced serologically. Here, we present genetic detection of Dobrava-Belgrade virus (DOBV) hantaviral sequences in wild rodents trapped in central Serbia. All the animals were pre-screened serologically by indirect immunofluorescence (IF) test and only those with a positive finding of hantaviral antigens were further tested by polymerase chain reaction. Of the total of 104 trapped animals, 20 were found to be IF positive and of those three were positive for hantaviral RNA: one Microtus arvalis for Tula virus, and one each of Apodemus agrarius and Glis glis for DOBV. Phylogenetic analysis of the obtained sequences implies putative DOBV spillover infection of A. agrarius and G. glis from Apodemus flavicollis. However, future investigations should help to identify the most common natural host and geographical distribution of DOBV in its reservoir hosts in Serbia.

In this study, we present phylogenetic analysis of a newly detected DOBV strain isolated from Apodemus agrarius. Analysis was based on partial L and S segment sequences, in comparison to previously published DOBV sequences from Serbia and elsewhere. A phylogenetic tree based on partial S segment revealed local geographical clustering of DOBV sequences from Serbia, unrelated to host (rodent or human). The topology of the phylogenetic tree was confirmed with a high percent of completely or partially resolved quartets in likelihood-mapping analysis, whereas no evidence of possible recombination in the examined S segment data set was found.

AB  - Introduction Ehrlichiosis is a bacterial zoonosis transmitted by hematophagous arthropods - ticks. In humans, it occurs as monocytic, granulocytic, and ewingii ehrlichiosis. Pathological process is based on parasitic presence of Ehrlichia organisms within peripheral blood cells - monocytes and granulocytes. Case Outline Fifty-two year old patient was admitted to hospital due to high fever of over 40°C that lasted two days, accompanied with chills, muscle aches, malaise, loss of appetite, headache, confusion, breathing difficulties, and mild dry cough. The history suggested tick bite that occurred seven days before the onset of disease. Doxycycline was introduced and administered for 14 days, causing the disease to subside. Indirect immunofluorescence assay was used to analyze three serum samples obtained from this patient for Ehrlichia chaffeensis antibodies, and peripheral blood smear was evaluated for the presence of Ehrlichia and Ehrlichia aggregation into morulae. Conclusion Ehrlichiosis should be considered in each case where there is a history of tick bite together with the clinical picture (high fever, chills, muscle aches, headache, generalized weakness and malaise, and possible maculopapular rash). The presence of Ehrlichia chaffeensis antibodies was confirmed in a patient with the history of tick bite, appropriate clinical picture and indirect immunofluorescence assay. This confirmed the presence of human monocytotropic ehrlichiosis, a disease that is uncommonly identified in our country.
AB  - Uvod Erlihioza je bakterijska zoonoza koja se prenosi hematofagnim artropodama - krpeljima. Kod ljudi se javlja kao monocitna, granulocitna i ewingii erlihioza. Patološki proces je posledica unutar ćelijskog parazitiranja erlihije u monocitima i granulocitima periferne krvi. Prikaz bolesnika Bolesnik star 52 godine primljen je na odeljenje zbog visoke dvodnevne febrilnosti (preko 40°C) koja je praćena drhtavicom, bolovima u mišićima, malaksalošću, gubitkom apetita, glavoboljom, konfuznošću, otežanim disanjem i oskudnim suvim kašljem. U anamnezi je dobijen podatak o ujedu krpelja sedam dana pre prijema. Laboratorijski nalazi su ukazali na trombocitopeniju, leukopeniju, anemiju i povećanje aktivnosti transaminaza u serumu. Bolesnik je lečen doksiciklinom 14 dana, nakon čega su se tegobe povukle. Metodom indirektne imunofluorescencije analizirana su tri uzorka seruma ovog bolesnika na prisustvo antitela na bakteriju Ehrlichia chaffeensis i pregledan je uzorak razmaza periferne krvi na prisustvo erlihija i konglomerata erlihije u morule, koje predstavljaju citoplazmatske vakuole. Zaključak Kod bolesnika s podatkom o ubodu krpelja, odgovarajućom kliničkom slikom i serološkim testom indirektne imunofluorescencije dokazana su antitela za bakteriju Ehrlichia chaffeensis, što ukazuje na humanu monocitotropnu erlihiozu, bolest koja se kod nas retko dokazuje. Na erlihiozu treba misliti kada uz kliničku sliku (visoka febrilnost, groznica, bolovi u mišićima, glavobolja, opšta slabost i malaksalost, eventualno makulopapulozna ospa) postoji podatak o ubodu krpelja.

AB  - Tula hantavirus (TULV) belongs to Bunyaviridae family, with negative sense RNA genome. Segmented nature of hantaviral genome allows for genetic reassortment, but the evidence of homologous recombination also exists. In this study we analyzed TULV sequences isolated in Serbia on different occasions and from different rodent hosts: 1987 strain from Microtus subterraneus and 2007 strain from Microtus arvalis. Phylogenetic analysis of both L and S segment sequences is suggestive of geographically related clustering, as previously shown for majority of hantaviruses. Reconstruction of phylogenetic tree for TULV S segment showed that both sequences from Serbia clustered together with sequences from East Slovakia, which had previously been shown to be recombinants (Kosice strain). Exploratory recombination analysis, supported by phylogenetic and amino acid pattern analysis, revealed the presence of recombination in the S segment sequences from Serbia, resulting in mosaic-like structure of TULV S segment similar to the one of Kosice strain. Although recombination is considered a rare event in molecular evolution of negative strand RNA viruses, obtained molecular data in this study support evidence of recombination in TULV, in geographically distant regions of Europe.

AB  - The disease caused by the West Nile virus (WNV) has been known since 1937 when it was described for the first time in Uganda. After spreading to Europe and the Middle East, the disease has changed its primary location. Today WN infection is a significant health problem in the world. As a result of the current epizootiological and epidemiological situation in Europe studies on the occurrence of WND were introduced in Serbia, also. The investigation on the presence of WNV antibodies was intensified in the period from 2008 to 2012. In this period a total of 3618 serum samples were tested from 18 localities (2736 animal sera from 8 different species and 882 human sera samples). The method applied was gel immunodiffusion and the representative samples were confirmed by the plaque reduction test (PRNT-90). Out of the total number of samples WNV antibodies were present in 3.97% horses, 0.93% dogs, 0.31% poultry and 1.36% man. In one horse serum sample there was a positive reaction with a positive control serum, thus indicating the presence of WNV antigen. The results have confirmed that WNV antibodies are present in 9 out of 18 tested locations in the Republic of Serbia. The percentage of seropositive samples varies from 0.42% in Pozarevac (horses and humans) up to 6.45% in Novi Pazar (dogs). Out of the investigated species the highest seropositivity was recorded in horses (3.97%), and lowest in poultry (0.31%). WNV is present and widespread in the Republic of Serbia, thus enabling distribution mapping.
AB  - Bolest koju izaziva virus Zapadnog Nila (WNV) je poznata još od 1937. kada je po prvi put opisana u Ugandi. Posle širenja virusa u Evropu i na Bliski istok, bolest je promenila prvobitnu lokaciju. Danas je WN infekcija značajan zdravstveni problem u svetu. Kao rezultat trenutne epizootiološko-epidemiološke situacije u Evropi, uvedena su istraživanja prisustva WNV i u Srbiji. Istraživanja prisustva antitela za WNV intenzivirana su u periodu od 2008. do 2012. godine. U ovom periodu ukupno je ispitano 3618 seruma sa 18 lokaliteta (2736 seruma životinja, od 8 različitih vrsta i 882 seruma ljudi). Korišćen je metod imunodifuzije u gelu a reprezentativni uzorak potvrđen je testom neutralizacije plaka (PRNT- 90). Od ukupnog broja uzoraka na prisustvo antitela za WNV bilo je pozitivno 3,97% konja, 0,93% pasa, 0,31% domaće živine i 1,36% ljudi. U serumu jednog konja pojavila se pozitivna reakcija sa pozitivnim kontrolnim serumom, ukazujući na prisustvo antigena WNV. Dobijeni rezultati su potvrdili da su antitela za WNV prisutna u 9 od 18 ispitivanih lokacija u Republici Srbiji. Procenat seropozitivnih varira od 0.42% u Požarevcu (konji i ljudi) do 6,45% u Novom Pazaru (psi). Od ispitivanih vrsta najveća seropozitivnost je registrovana kod konja (3,97%), a najniža kod živine (0,31%). Raspoloživi podaci ukazuju da je WNV prisutan i značajno raširen u Republici Srbiji, što je omogućilo i mapiranje njegovog širenja.

AB  - Arboviruses are the most numerous group of viruses with 534 registered members. With a few exceptions, most of arboviruses are RNA viruses. Mostly they have zoonotic characteristics and are transmissible by vectors- arthropods (ticks, mosquitoes, phlebothomines etc.) on human and animal population. Arboviruses induced epidemics and epizooties have massive occurrence with huge economic loses. Primarily, arboviruses are neurotropic viruses that cause damage on central nervous system with lethality rate 5-80%, and are considered to be very dangerous- biohazard. Beside vector transmission interhuman transmission can occur (Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever, Ebola, Lasso, Marburg). According to their characteristics, some of arboviruses took place in the List of biological weapons used against humans, animals and even plants. Investigation of Arboviruses in the Republic of Serbia has been started in 1960s, resulting with isolation of 5 arboviruses - 4 were isolated from vectors samples and one from human material sample. Two of them under the name of Jug Bogdanovac and Dubrava/Belgrade took place in the International catalogue of viruses as a new isolated arboviruses. The formation of distribution map of Arboviruses in Serbia was started by isolations and seroepidemiological investigations as well as overview of their impact to human public and veterinary medicine health.

Većina su zoonoznog karaktera, a na ljude i životinje prenose se posredstvom artropoda (krpelja, komaraca, flebotomina). Epidemije i epizootije koje izazivaju su masovne sa velikim ekonomskim gubicima u zdravstvu i ekonomiji zemlje. Primarno su neurotropni i izazivaju oštećenja centralnog nervnog sistema sa letalitetom od 5-80%. Neki su veoma opasni - biohazardni i pored vektorskog prenošenja prenose se i intrahumano (Krimska - Kongo HG, Ebola, Lassa, Marburg i druge). Zbog svojih osobina neki arbovirusi su i na listi biološkog oružja protiv ljudi, životinja, pa čak i bilja.

Izolacijama virusa i seroepidemiološkim istraživanjima započeto je formiranje karte rasprostranjenosti arbovirusa u Srbiji i sagledavanje njihove uloge u zdravstvu i veterinarskoj medicine.

AB  - We assayed the presence of antibodies specific for Rickettsia typhi, R. akari, and R. conorii in sera of persons from several localities in Serbia with different geographic, climatic, and lifestyle characteristics. Sera from 140 patients with unclear clinical symptoms and 273 healthy persons were tested for the presence of rickettsiae-specific antibodies by indirect immunofluorescence assay. In this study, for the first time we detected the presence of rickettsiae from the spotted fever group in Serbia. We detected the presence of antibodies against R. conorii in the samples from all tested localities. The proportion of positive cases was low in the plain agricultural areas but reached up to 23% in the mountain areas. We also observed a significant number of cases positive for antibodies against R. akari. Antibodies specific for the antigens of R. typhi were detected in only 2 samples from the municipality of Pec (Kosovo region). These findings contribute to the prevalence of Rickettsia species in Southeast Europe. Our study also revealed a dramatic lack of awareness of rickettsioses among medical personnel and pointed to the need for urgent measures that would help improve the current situation in the region.

AB  - The aim of our study were to examine the prevalence of Ehrlichia chaffeensis, etiological agent of Human Monocytotropic Ehrlichiosis, in population of Serbia we assayed the presence of specific antibodies in human sera by indirect immunofluorescence assay. Sera from 273 healthy persons and 138 patients with unclear rheumatoid and influenza-like clinical symptoms from several localities with different geographical, climatic and lifestyle characteristics were tested. In this survey, for the first time, we detected presence of Ehrlichia chaffeensis-specific antibodies in the sera of healthy volunteers from the mountain/forest areas of Serbia. In addition, our findings suggest that some of the patients with unclear clinical symptoms experienced the infection with Ehrlichia chaffeensis, and most probably suffered from Human Monocytotropic Ehrlichiosis. These findings contribute to the investigation of the prevalence of Ehrlichia chaffeensis in Southeast Europe. Our study also revealed lack of awareness of Ehrlichioses and points the urge for the measures that would help improving current situation in the region.
AB  - Cilj naše studije je bio da ispitamo prevalencu Ehrlichi-je chaffeensis, etiološkog uzročnika humane monocitotropične erlihioze u Srbiji utvrđivanjem prisustva specifičnih antitela u humanom serumu metodom indirektne imunofluoroscencije. Testirani su serumi 273 zdrave osobe i 138 pacijenata sa nejasnim reumatoidnim i gripu sličnim kliničkim simptomima iz različitih geografskih, klimatskim i socijalnih sredina. Na taj način smo po prvi put, detektovali prisustvo Ehrlichia chaffeensis-specifičnih antitela u serumu zdravih dobrovoljaca iz planinskih oblasti Srbije.Naš nalaz ukazuje da su neki od pacijenata sa nejasnim kliničkim simptomima bili izloženi infekciji sa Ehrlichijom chaffeensis najverovatnije oboleli od humane monocitotropične erlihioze. Ovaj nalaz doprinosi utvrđivanju prevalence Ehrlichije chaffeensis u jugoistočno Evropi. Naša studija je takođe otkrila da se ova bolest vrlo često previđa i ukazuje na mere koje bi poboljšale trenutnu situaciju u regionu.

Diffusion precipitation test in agar gel and indirect immunofluorescence assay were used. Specific antibodies against CHF virus were found in 6.9% and against HFRS virus in 15.1 patient's sera. Antibodies against CHF virus were proved in sera of patients on the fifth day from the disease onset at the earliest. No wanted antibodies were found in healthy persons' sera. The results of sera testing on antibodies against CHF virus were analyzed in detail.

AB  - An outbreak of severe hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) occurred in 1988 in Pozarevac, Serbia, Yugoslavia. The disease was diagnosed in 4 children and I adult, and I of the children died. Rodents were captured from the same area and virus isolation attempted. A hantavirus, POZ-M1, was isolated from lung tissues of hantavirus antigen-positive Mus musculus. Serology and restriction enzyme digestion of polymerase chain reaction-amplified segments from this virus showed that it was a strain of Puumala (PUU) virus, the causative agent of nephropathia epidemica. While Clethrionomys glareolus is the major rodent host for PUU virus, these results suggest that M. musculus may also play an important role in harboring and transmitting PUU-like viruses. The serologic association of this virus with patients with severe HFRS reaffirms that PUU-like viruses may cause severe disease in addition to the generally mild form normally associated with nephropathia epidemica.

The main clinical features in all five patients were: fever, headache, myalgia, abdominal and back pain and vomiting; haemorrhagic syndrome was present in four children. Renal syndrome presented with severe acute renal failure in all five patients. All patients recovered. Serological confirmation by an indirect immunofluorescence assay, by enzyme immunoassay for IgM antibodies and by plaque reduction neutralization test showed infection by Belgrade virus in three and by Hantaan virus in two patients. It was not possible to differentiate these two serogroups on the basis of clinical features. This study provides futher information on the circulation of different hantaviruses causing severe HFRS in Serbia.

AB  - From January 1988 to September 1989, seven patients (4 girls and 3 boys, aged 3-12 years) with haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) were hospitalised at the University Children's Hospital in Belgrade. In four patients the disease appeared as a family outbreak, the others were sporadic cases. In six patients the clinical presentation was suggestive of HFRS, as they had fever with headache, myalgia, sore throat and gastrointestinal illness followed by renal abnormalities. However, severe haemorrhagic syndrome with petechia, haematoma, haematemesis and melaena was present in one patient only. Renal disease presented as nephritic syndrome and/or acute renal failure. Five patients recovered after 2-3 weeks without sequellae, one patient had decreased renal function 17 months after the start of the disease and the remaining patient died. In six patients the diagnosis of HFRS was confirmed serologically by a significant rise in antibody titres against hantaviruses, while in the patient with the fatal and fulminant course of the disease, the diagnosis was established on the basis of epidemiological and autopsy findings. We suggest that children living in endemic areas who develop an ill-defined, febrile and gastrointestinal disease with renal dysfunction should be evaluated for HFRS.

AB  - An epidemic of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) occurred in Yugoslavia May-November 1986; all Republics and Provinces were involved. Serum samples were received from 260 of 267 persons with symptoms clinically compatible with a diagnosis of HFRS. Presumptive infection with a hantavirus was determined serologically for 161 of these. Many patients with serious clinical pictures, including severe renal insufficiency and shock, were hospitalized; 11 died. Indirect fluorescent antibody tests with antigens of 4 hantaviruses (Hantaan, Fojnica, Puumala, and the Vranica strain of Puumala virus) showed that  gt 1 serotype was circulating during this epidemic. Hantavirus antigens were detected in the lungs of 86 of 302 (28.5%) wild-caught small mammals.

AB  - During a smallpox epidemic in Yugoslavia in 1972, a number of pregnant women were vaccinated against smallpox. A virological study was undertaken, by attempting the isolation of vaccinia virus from embryonal tissues obtained by curettage. Embryonal tissues from 150 women vaccinated during early pregnancy were pooled in 15 pools. As controls, 50 specimens of embryonal tissues were obtained from nonvaccinated pregnant women and they were pooled in 5 pools. Inoculation of the embryonal tissue pools on chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) of chicken embryos detected the presence of vaccinia virus in one pool out of 15 pools consisting of the embryonal tissues obtained from vaccinated pregnant women. The vaccinia virus was identified by the appearance of infected CAMs, by electron microscopy, and by the neurtralization test. In 3 pools (2 from the vaccinated group and 1 from the nonvaccinated control group) herpesviruses were isolated in CAM. The finding of poxvirus vacciniae in one pool of embryonal tissues indicated the infection of an embryo during early pregnancy. The frequency of such an event is considered to be lower than 1%, and the outcome of pregnancy could not be predicted.
