Human neutrophil elastase in RSV bronchiolitis.
Acute bronchiolitis is the most common lower respiratory tract infection in young children and may be life-threatening in those with underlying cardiac or respiratory conditions. We evaluated the nasal and serum levels of human neutrophil elastase (HNE) in patients with acute respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis and investigated the correlation of these levels with illness severity. ...
متن کاملEosinophil Cationic Protein and Chemokines in Nasopharyngeal Secretions of Infants with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Bronchiolitis and Non-RSV Bronchiolitis
Bronchiolitis is a risk factor for the development of childhood asthma. Eosinophilic inflammation in airways plays an important role in the pathophysiology of both bronchiolitis and asthma. To investigate this inflammation, we measured the eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), regulated on activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) and eotaxin levels in nasopharyngeal secretions (NPS...
متن کاملRespiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis: comparative study of RSV groups A and B infected children.
The grouping characteristics of 29 respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) present in nasopharyngeal cells collected from hospitalized children with bronchiolitis during the 1990 RSV season in Porto Alegre, RS, were analysed. Twenty-two were grouped as belonging to group A and 7 to group B. Cyanosis, oxygen therapy, cough, length of hospitalization and atelectasis were observed to be more frequently ...
متن کاملRSV bronchiolitis and risk of wheeze and allergic sensitisation in the first year of life.
Severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection has been hypothesised to be a risk factor for the development of allergy and asthma, but epidemiological studies in older children have been inconclusive. The current study hypothesises that the effect of RSV bronchiolitis might be most prominent during the first year after bronchiolitis. Forty-two infants had experienced RSV bronchiolitis seve...
متن کاملNasosorption as a Minimally Invasive Sampling Procedure: Mucosal Viral Load and Inflammation in Primary RSV Bronchiolitis
Background. Existing respiratory mucosal sampling methods are flawed, particularly in a pediatric bronchiolitis setting. Methods. Twenty-four infants with bronchiolitis were recruited: 12 were respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-positive, 12 were RSV-negative. Infants were sampled by nasosorption and nasopharyngeal aspiration (NPA). Results. Nasosorption was well tolerated and identified all ...
