OUCRU startet eine Studie zu KI‑gestützten Wearables zur Frühwarnung vor schwerem Dengue; kontinuierliche Vitaldaten sollen mit KI‑Modellen kombiniert werden, um früh eine Verschlechterung zu erkennen.

Branchenanalysen heben 2025 den zunehmenden Einsatz von Wearables und KI in klinischen Studien hervor, etwa zur kontinuierlichen Datenerfassung und Optimierung von Studiendesign und Rekrutierung.

Der ECDC‑Bedrohungsbericht für Woche 50 dokumentiert 1 112 lokal erworbene humane West‑Nil‑Virus‑Fälle in 14 europäischen Ländern im Jahr 2025, mit 779 Fällen und 72 Todesfällen in Italien, dem bislang größten WNV‑Ausbruch des Landes.

ECDC und nationale Berichte zeigen auch, dass die Influenza‑Aktivität in der EU/EEA deutlich zugenommen hat; etwa die isländische Woche‑50‑Übersicht beschreibt weitverbreitete Influenza‑A(H3N2)‑Zirkulation mit steigenden Hospitalisationen, vor allem bei ≥65‑Jährigen.

Acht europäische Studien zeigen für 2024/25 eine Influenza‑Impfstoffwirksamkeit von grob einem Drittel bis zur Hälfte gegen Influenza‑A‑bedingte Arzt‑ und Krankenhausfälle, bei besserer Wirksamkeit gegenüber Influenza‑B, vor dem Hintergrund einer Mischsaison aus A(H1N1), A(H3N2) und B/Victoria.

Eine ECDC‑gestützte RespiCompass‑Modellierung legt nahe, dass saisonale Influenza‑ und COVID‑19‑Impfkampagnen bei älteren Erwachsenen zwischen rund einem Viertel und zwei Fünfteln der Influenzahospitalisationen und etwa 15–20 % der COVID‑19‑Aufnahmen verhindert haben.

OUCRU trials AI-powered wearables for early warning of severe dengue - OUCRU

AI applications in dengue monitoring and prediction are showing encouraging early signals, with new models achieving around 80% accuracy in forecasting severe progression up to two hours in advance. The Oxford University Clinical Research Unit (OUCRU) presented these findings at the Dengue Summit 2025, organised by Ho Chi Minh City Pasteur Institute.

The #WestNileVirus quickly spread across the #UnitedStates after the first reported cases in #QueensNewYork, in 1999. The virus is believed to have entered in an infected bird or mosquito, although there is no clear evidence. The disease spread quickly through infected birds. #Mosquitoes spread the disease to mammals. It was mainly noted in horses but also appeared in a number of other species.
