| St. Louis encephalitis virus | A group B arbovirus, in the family Flaviviridae, occurring in the U.S., Trinidad, and Panama; normally present as inapparent infection in humans, but sometimes a cause of encephalitis; the virus has been isolated from birds in Panama and from several mosquito species, especially Psorophora.

| subacute inclusion body encephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Dawson's encephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| suppurative encephalitis | Encephalitis of bacterial aetiology. Synonym: encephalitis pyogenica, purulent encephalitis, suppurative encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| swine encephalitis virus | A coronavirus, in the family Coronaviridae, that causes swine encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ilheus encephalitis | An encephalitis caused by the Ilheus virus (genus Flavivirus) and endemic to eastern Brazil and other parts of South and Central America; transmitted by mosquitoes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inclusion body encephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| opossum encephalitis | Encephalitis of opossum caused by Chlamydia psittaci. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tick-borne encephalitis | 1. (Central European subtype) tick-borne meningoencephalitis caused by a flavivirus closely related to the virus causing the Far Eastern type; it is transmitted by Ixodes ricinus, also by infected raw milk, especially that of goats. Synonym: biundulant meningoencephalitis, Central European tick-borne fever, diphasic milk fever, Russian spring-summer encephalitis (Western subtype). 2. (Eastern subtype) tick-borne encephalitis, a severe form of encephalitis caused by a flavivirus, a virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family, and transmitted by ticks (Ixodes pertulcatus and I. Ricinus). Synonym: Russian tick-borne encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tick-borne encephalitis virus | An arbovirus of the genus Flavivirus that occurs in Central Europe and the USSR in two subtypes, causing two forms of encephalitis in humans: tick-borne encephalitis (Central European subtype) and tick-borne encephalitis (Eastern subtype); the vectors are ticks of the genus Ixodes. Synonym: Russian spring-summer encephalitis virus, tick-borne virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis | <pathology> Inflammation of the brain. (18 Nov 1997) |
| encephalitis, california | Mosquito-borne infection with california group of the bunyavirus genus. most california encephalitis is caused by the la crosse virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis, epidemic | A viral encephalitis caused by encephalitis viruses, all arboviruses. The severity of the encephalitis depends upon which virus strain causes the infection. The viruses are maintained by inapparent zoonoses in birds and lower vertebrates, and are transmitted to humans via arthropod vectors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis haemorrhagica | Encephalitis of apoplectoid character due to blood extravasation. Synonym: encephalitis haemorrhagica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis, japanese | A form of epidemic encephalitis occurring in japan and other pacific islands, china, manchuria, the former ussr, and probably much of the far east. It may occur as a symptomless, subclinical infection, or as an acute meningoencephalomyelitis with cortical damage and cord lesions resembling those of poliomyelitis. (12 Dec 1998) |
