In this study, direct fluorescent test (DFT) and real-time PCR (rtPCR) were compared for the detection of acute lower respiratory tract virus infections caused by syncytial (RSV) A B, influenza (Flu) parainfluenza (PIV) 1, 2, 3 4 adenovirus (AdV) in children admitted to Lady Ridgeway Hospital, Colombo. Nasopharyngeal aspirates/swabs obtained from May July, 2014. Cell pellets subjected DFT. Extr...
The optimal method for identifying respiratory viruses in adults has not been established. The objective of the study was to compare the sensitivities of three sampling methods for this purpose. One thousand participants (mean age, 63.1 +/- 17.8 years) were included. Of these, 550 were patients hospitalized for acute febrile lower respiratory tract infections and 450 were controls. Oropharyngea...
Humans are highly susceptible to infection with respiratory viruses including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza virus, human metapneumovirus, rhinovirus, coronavirus, and parainfluenza virus. While some viruses simply cause symptoms of the common cold, many respiratory viruses induce severe bronchiolitis, pneumonia, and even death following infection. Despite the immense clinical bur...
We have analysed data on respiratory syncytial (RS) and parainfluenza type 3 (PF3) viruses reported to the Communicable Disease Surveillance Centre, London, over the period 1978-87. These confirm the annual winter epidemic of RS virus and show that, in England and Wales, PF3 is a summer infection with regular yearly epidemics.
background the annual hajj pilgrimage to mecca brings over two million people together in a small confined area. respiratory involvement is the most common disease during this ceremony, and up to now no unique cause has been identified. the present study was conducted to determine the incidence and types of respiratory diseases and their associated etiologic agents. materials and methods during...
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of rhinovirus infection in hospitalized young infants with acute bronchiolitis. METHODS Hospitalized children with acute bronchiolitis admitted to the Hospital São Lucas/PUCRS between May and September 2002 were selected prospectively. Nasopharyngeal samples were assayed for respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza, influenza and adenovirus by immunoflu...
BACKGROUND Respiratory infections are a leading cause of pediatric hospitalizations. This study investigated whether virus-virus or virus-Bordetella co-infections are more frequent or more severe than previously recognized. METHODS This is a 3-year prospective study of children younger than 24 months hospitalized with a febrile respiratory illness. Viral pathogens were detected using multiple...
We conducted a prospective pilot study over a 1-year period in New Caledonia in preparation for the Pneumonia Research for Child Health (PERCH) project. The pathogens associated with hospitalized lower respiratory infections in children were identified through the use of culture of induced sputum and blood, urinary antigen detection, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on respiratory specimens, and...
BACKGROUND To ascertain the full mortality of influenza and other respiratory viruses, the testing of community autopsy specimens is essential. METHODS Respiratory virus PCR and culture were performed on 2418 fresh unfrozen respiratory samples collected from 1611 coronial cases where the death was either unknown or infection was suspected, from July 2007 to June 2011, to detect the common res...
A total of 303 young children with acute respiratory tract illnesses were examined for viral and bacterial agents. The isolation of Haemophilus influenzae from 58 (19.1%) of the children was described in relation to respiratory viruses and other bacterial agents isolated at the same time. H. influenzae was isolated alone in 24 instances. Streptococcus pneumoniae and respiratory syncytial virus ...
