Article Title: Genomic surveillance of a deeply sampled local population reveals age-specific drivers of RSV transmission

doi: 10.64898/2026.05.07.26350887

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) All age-group hospitalization rates in Connecticut from 2021 – 2025, based on data from RSV-NET and colored by sequence availability. (B) Summary of local Connecticut clades (RSV-B = 43, RSV-A = 33). Persistence bars are colored by subtype (RSV-A, pink; RSV-B, blue). Each vertical dotted line represents the start of a calendar year mark; RSV epidemic seasons are indicated by a light grey background. (C) Histogram of observed persistence duration; vertical dashed lines represent the median duration of lineage persistence.

Article Snippet: We tested our primer set with commercial RSV-A (ATCC VR-1540) / RSV-B (ATCC VR-3381) standards, both individually and as a multiplex, and then validated with 182 mixed-genotype (A and B) clinical samples to confirm that we could sequence without the need for prior subtyping.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Maximum clade credibility (MCC) trees illustrating seven potential trans-seasonal persistent clades (three RSV-A and four RSV-B). Clades are defined by tips sampled across more than one RSV season from a single inferred introduction event. Tips are colored according to the age group from which the sequence was sampled. Internal branches are colored by the inferred ancestral age group, which is derived from the larger global phylogenetic tree.

Article Title: Mucosal IgA to pre-fusion F protein predicts protection from RSV infection in a high burden setting

doi: 10.64898/2026.03.16.26348479

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Longitudinal trajectories of serum IgG (top row) and mucosal IgA (bottom row) antibody responses against four RSV-B proteins (PreF, PostF, G, NP) over time. Individual participant trajectories are shown as thin lines with low opacity, colored by infection status: not infected (black), sero-detected infections (orange), and PCR-confirmed infections (green). (B) Mean fold-change in antibody titres between the first bleed (pre-epidemic baseline) and second bleed (post-epidemic) for serum IgG and mucosal IgA responses to RSV-B proteins. Bars represent mean fold-change (log10 scale) stratified by infection status, with error bars indicating standard error.

doi: 10.64898/2026.03.16.26348479

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Post-infection longitudinal antibody titers for four viral RSV-B proteins (PreF, PostF, G, and NP) across different antibody types; serum IgG and mucosal IgA. Lines show the median posterior predictive fit from the fitted Bayesian model, and the points show the observational titre data, with the size correlating with the sample size for that bin. (B) Peak antibody (x axis) and persistence measured as duration above a 2-fold (left panel) and 4-fold titre rise (right panel) in days. Data points show median posterior values for measurements of four viral RSV-B proteins (PreF, PostF, G, and NP) across different antibody types: serum IgG and mucosal IgA.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Serum IgG, top row; mucosal IgA, bottom row and columns are viral antigen target (PreF, PostF, G, and NP for both RSV-A and RSV-B strains). The solid green line represents the mean estimated probability of protection given exposure to infection as a function of antibody titre, with shaded ribbons indicating 95% credible intervals. Background histograms show the distribution of antibody titres at infection for infected individuals (orange) versus non-infected individuals (gray).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Model performance comparison across single biomarker models and the dual biomarker model, defined by out-of-sample predictive accuracy (LOO-ELPD, x-axis) and discrimination ability (area under the ROC curve, AUC, y-axis). Circles indicate serum IgG models, squares represent mucosal IgA models, and the triangle denotes the dual biomarker model combining serum IgG and mucosal IgA to RSV-B PreF. The best-performing model within each biomarker class is highlighted with darker shading. Error bars show the standard error of LOO-ELPD (horizontal) and 95% confidence intervals for AUC (vertical). The dashed horizontal line indicates an AUC of 0.7.
