Changes in self-reported physical and mental health, behaviour and economic status among adults by known seropositivity and sociodemographic factors before and after the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak in …
Introduction: In early March 2020, a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak occurred in the ski resort of Ischgl, in Austria. After an initial seroprevalence study in April 2020, a follow-up study in November 2020 showed persistence of high levels of seropositivity. The impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infections and non-pharmaceutical interventions required to reduce transmission were wide-ranging, including worsened mental and physical health and economic damage. Methods: W…
Acceptance and impact of Nirsevimab and the RSVpreF vaccine following implementation in Austria
Background Since summer 2024, passive immunization with nirsevimab (Beyfortus ® ) has been recommended for all infants in Austria to prevent severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. Maternal vaccination with RSVpreF (Abrysvo ® ), which provides transplacental protection, became available in autumn 2023. The expected public health benefits of these preventive strategies depend largely on widespread acceptance; however, real-world data f…
Disproportionate preponderance of HPV genotypes associated with anogenital warts among HIV-positive MSM
Background In this study, we characterized the HPV genotype distribution in a population of 489 adults already positive for HPV DNA. The study population was divided into two groups: 244 HIV-positive (HIV+) men who have sex with men (MSM) undergoing routine anal screening for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and 245 women undergoing routine cervical cancer screening. Acknowledging the fact that women and MSM represent two independent circles …
Seroprevalence of Sars-CoV-2 infection in the Tyrolean district of Schwaz at the time of the rapid mass vaccination in March 2021 following B.1.351-variant outbreak
In order to curb the rapid dissemination of the B.1.351 variant of SARS-CoV-2 in the district of Schwaz and beyond, the EU allocated additional vaccine doses at the beginning of March 2021 to implement a rapid mass vaccination of the population (16+). The aim of our study was to determine the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 among the adult population in the district of Schwaz at the time of the implementation. Data on previous history of infections,…
Respiratory viruses dynamics and interactions
The analysis of respiratory viruses dynamics in monoinfection and coinfection contributes to the prevention, diagnostic, treatment, and development of new therapeutics. Data obtained from multiplex testing is fundamental for this analysis and should be prioritized over single pathogen testing
Pre-vaccine era cervical human papillomavirus infection among screening population of women in west Austria
With this study we present the first data on the prevalence of cervical HPV genotypes among a screening population in Austria. The results not only fill the missing information on HPV infection in this group of women in the country, they also provide baseline data for a future evaluation of the impact of the Austrian gender-neutral HPV immunization program. Moreover, our finding of higher HPV prevalence in the eastern compared to the western dist…
P2-310 Gamma-glutamyltransferase as a biomarker for oxidative stress, metabolic syndrome, and alcohol consumption and its association with cancer incidence
Background Alcohol consumption, metabolic factors and oxidative stress have consistently been linked to cancer development. Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) is a biomarker for adverse alcohol consumption and oxidative stress. It is highly related to metabolic factors such as hyperglycaemia, dislipidaemia and obesity. We therefore hypothesise that GGT is associated with cancer incidence at different sites. Methods First visit measurements in 94 628…
Gamma-glutamyltransferase as a predictor for alcohol- and non-alcohol-related cancer incidence
Objective Recent evidence suggests that elevated levels of gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) are associated with both incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease and cancer. Although GGT is regarded as a marker of liver function which may in turn reflect alcohol consumption, to date, no study has investigated the relationship of GGT with cancer sites known to be alcohol-related or non-related. Design Prospective cohort follow up and linkage s…
