Influenza A virus among the hospitalized young children with acute respiratory infection. Is influenza A co infected with respiratory syncytial virus?
Background: Both influenza A virus (IAV) and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) cause acute respiratory infection (ARI) in infants and young children. This study was conducted to determine Influenza A virus and its co infection with RSV among the hospitalized children with ARI. Methods: A total of 153 throat samples of the hospitalized young children aged between below one year and 5 years with...
متن کاملRespiratory illness associated with influenza and respiratory syncytial virus infection.
AIMS To estimate excess morbidity during periods of influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) activity. METHODS Retrospective analysis of a sentinel practice network database in active and non-active virus periods. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES clinical diagnoses of new episodes of influenza-like illness (ILI), acute bronchitis, asthma, and otitis media. RESULTS The clinical diagnosis of IL...
متن کاملRapid detection of respiratory syncytial virus and influenza A virus in cell cultures by immunoperoxidase staining with monoclonal antibodies.
Peroxidase-labeled monoclonal antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza A virus were used for immunoperoxidase staining (IPS) of cell cultures inoculated with nasopharyngeal aspirates. Cells were grown in 24-well plates, and specimens were inoculated by low-speed centrifugation. Cultures were incubated for 2 days at 37 degrees C and then fixed, stained, and observed by ...
متن کاملInfluenza- and respiratory syncytial virus-associated mortality and hospitalisations.
The aim of the current study was to estimate influenza- and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-associated mortality and hospitalisations, especially the influenza-associated burden among low-risk individuals < or =65 yrs old, not yet recommended for influenza vaccination in many European countries. Retrospectively during 1997-2003, Dutch national all-cause mortality and hospital discharge figure...
متن کاملMortality in children from influenza and respiratory syncytial virus.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To quantify mortality attributable to influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in children. DESIGN AND METHODS Comparison of death rates (all cause and certified respiratory) in England over winters 1989/90 to 1999/00 during and outside influenza and RSV circulation periods. Virus active weeks were defined from clinical and virological surveillance data. Exces...
