Enterovirus 75 and Aseptic Meningitis, Spain, 2005
To the Editor: Although most human enterovirus (EV) (genus Enterovirus, family Picornaviridae) infections are asymptomatic, they can cause upper respiratory illness, febrile rash, aseptic meningitis, pleurodynia, encephalitis, acute flaccid paralysis, and neonatal sepsislike disease (1). Most EVs have been implicated in aseptic meningitis, most notably echovirus (E) 30, 9, 6, and 11 and coxsack...
متن کاملEnterovirus Detection in Patients Suspected Aseptic Meningitis by RT-PCR in Kermanshah, Iran
Background: Aseptic meningitis is frequently caused by viral agents, particularly human enterovirus. Several methods of Reverse Transcription PCR(RT-PCR) have recently been introduced and modified for better diagnosis of enteroviral infection in meningitis. This study aimed to determine enteroviruses in patients with suspicion of aseptic meningitis using RT-PCR in the West of I...
متن کاملPossible tick-borne human enterovirus resulting in aseptic meningitis.
Enterovirus-specific genetic sequences were isolated from two Amblyomma americanum tick pools. Identical genetic sequences were later obtained from cerebrospinal fluid of a patient with aseptic meningitis and a recent history of tick attachment. These observations suggest the possibility of an emerging tick-borne human enterovirus associated with aseptic meningitis.
متن کاملMolecular Analysis of Echovirus 13 Isolates and Aseptic Meningitis, Spain
Echovirus 13 (EV13), considered rare, was reported worldwide in 2000, mostly related to aseptic meningitis outbreaks. In Spain, 135 EV13 isolates were identified. The genetic relationships between 64 representative strains from Spain and other reported isolates from the United States, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Sweden were described by analyzing the partial sequence of the major capsid protein ...
متن کاملAcute Aseptic Meningitis
aseptic meningitis or benign lymphocytic meningitis has been given. Wallgren (1925) gave the first account of this condition. His observa, tions were based on a small epidemic. Since then it has been described from time to time by many physicians under different names ?aseptic benign purulent meningitis (Schiff, 1930), idiopathic benign serous, meningitis (Andersen and Wulff, 1930), epidemic me...
