Abstract

We examined New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene surveillance data on hepatitis A, malaria, and typhoid to determine the proportion of these diseases related to travel and their geographic distribution. We found that 61% of hepatitis A cases, 100% of malaria cases, and 78% of typhoid cases were travel related and that cases clustered in specific populations and neighborhoods at which public health interventions could be targeted. High-risk groups include Hispanics (for hepatitis A), West Africans living in the Bronx (for malaria), and South Asians (for typhoid).

Abstract

A patient with no risk factors for malaria was hospitalized in New York City with Plasmodium falciparuminfection. After investigating all potential sources of infection, we concluded the patient had been exposed to malaria while hospitalized less than 3 weeks earlier. Molecular genotyping implicated patient-to-patient transmission in a hospital setting.Infect. Control Hosp. Epidemiol.2015;37(1):113–115

21. Effects of the incorporation of CHAPS into SDS micelles on neuropeptide–micelle binding: Separation of the role of electrostatic interactions from hydrophobic interactions

Author

Whitehead, Tracy L., Jones, Lucretia M., and Hicks, Rickey P.

Abstract

It is well known that neuropeptides interact with lipid vesicles in a manner similar to biological membranes, with electrostatic interactions between the two providing a mechanism for concentrating the peptide at the vesicle's surface, followed by hydrophobic interactions between the peptide and the core of the vesicle that induce and stabilize secondary structure motifs. In an effort to understand these interactions to a greater extent, our group has developed a series of anionic micelles (SDS) containing various concentrations of the bile salt CHAPS, which is used as a model for cholesterol. The incorporation of CHAPS into the hydrophobic core of these micelles should alter the degree to which the neuropeptide can insert itself, affecting structure. These interactions were investigated using two-dimensional NMR, pulse-field gradient (PFG) NMR, and molecular modeling experiments. The results of this study clearly indicate that electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between the micelle and neuropeptide are completely independent of one another. Increasing the concentration of CHAPS to 15 mM in the micelles blocks the insertion of the hydrophobic side chains of the neuropeptide into the hydrophobic core of the micelles. The electrostatic interactions as determined by diffusion measurements are not affected by the presence of increasing CHAPS concentration. Our observations are consistent with the predictions of Seelig (A. Seelig and J. Seelig, “Interaction of Drugs and Peptides with the Lipid Membrane,” in Structure and Function of 7TM Receptors, T. W. Schwartz, S. A. Hjorth, and T. S. Kastrup, Eds., Munksgaard: Location, 1996). © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopolymers 58: 593–605, 2001

Abstract

New York City (NYC) was an epicenter of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak in the United States during spring 2020 (1). During March-May 2020, approximately 203,000 laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases were reported to the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). To obtain more complete data, DOHMH used supplementary information sources and relied on direct data importation and matching of patient identifiers for data on hospitalization status, the occurrence of death, race/ethnicity, and presence of underlying medical conditions. The highest rates of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths were concentrated in communities of color, high-poverty areas, and among persons aged ≥75 years or with underlying conditions. The crude fatality rate was 9.2% overall and 32.1% among hospitalized patients. Using these data to prevent additional infections among NYC residents during subsequent waves of the pandemic, particularly among those at highest risk for hospitalization and death, is critical. Mitigating COVID-19 transmission among vulnerable groups at high risk for hospitalization and death is an urgent priority. Similar to NYC, other jurisdictions might find the use of supplementary information sources valuable in their efforts to prevent COVID-19 infections., Competing Interests: All authors have completed and submitted the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors form for disclosure of potential conflicts of interest. No potential conflicts of interest were disclosed.

Abstract

In July 2014, as the Ebola virus disease (Ebola) epidemic expanded in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, an air traveler brought Ebola to Nigeria and two American health care workers in West Africa were diagnosed with Ebola and later medically evacuated to a U.S. hospital. New York City (NYC) is a frequent port of entry for travelers from West Africa, a home to communities of West African immigrants who travel back to their home countries, and a home to health care workers who travel to West Africa to treat Ebola patients. Ongoing transmission of Ebolavirus in West Africa could result in an infected person arriving in NYC. The announcement on September 30 of an Ebola case diagnosed in Texas in a person who had recently arrived from an Ebola-affected country further reinforced the need in NYC for local preparedness for Ebola.
