Abstract BACKGROUND: Neurological viral infection is frequently associated to enterovirus, herpesvirus and arboviruses. These infections may cause severe clinical outcomes, long lasting sequelae or death. Few studies have addressed viral neurological infections etiology in Brazil. OBJECTIVES: Identification of viruses in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) of human neurological infections suspected of viral etiology during January and May 2019 in Midwestern Brazil. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinical, laboratory and epidemiological information was gathered from medical records. In addition, an aliquot of the sampled CSF was subjected to viral RNA/DNA extraction, randomic dscDNA amplification by PCR, DNA purification and Ilumina HiSeq 2500 sequencing. RESULTS: Six viral genomes belonging to Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) East-Central-South African (ECSA) genotype (10.834-11.804 nt in length) confirmed lately by RT-PCR for CHIKV envelope were present in all six liquor samples. These genomes present two mutations, nsP2:T31I and nsP3:A388V, shared with other Mato Grosso State strains from 2019, not present in sequences of the virus from previous years obtained in the State. One case was a triple co-infection also confirmed through RT-PCR, with Dengue virus serotype 4 genotype II (NS5; 874 nt) and Oropouche virus genotype IA (segment S; 302 nt). CSF was clear and colorless (5/6 patients), with >10% of lymphomononuclear cells (6/6), 1-99 erythrocytes/mm(3) (5/6), glucose levels >50 mg/dl (4/5) e > 10 mg/dl of proteins (4/4). One patient evolved to death, and another, a newborn, presented sequelae after recovery. CONCLUSIONS: Despite herpesviruses and enteroviruses are frequent etiologies of neurological infections, the casuistic here reported was associated to arboviruses already known to be responsible for acute febrile illness outbreaks in the state of Mato Grosso, Midwestern Brazil.

Mutation Information
Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
