Host nutritional status: the neglected virulence factor.

Trends in microbiology - 1 Sept 2004

Beck Melinda A, Handy Jean, Levander Orville A

Abstract excerpt

The emergence of new infectious diseases and old diseases with new pathogenic properties is a burgeoning worldwide problem. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) are just two of the most widely reported recent emerging infectious diseases. What are the factors that contribute to the rapid evolution of viral species? Various hypotheses have been proposed, all...
