Predictors of influenza a molecular viral shedding in Hutterite communities
BACKGROUND Patterns of influenza molecular viral shedding following influenza infection have been well established; predictors of viral shedding however remain uncertain. OBJECTIVES We sought to determine factors associated with peak molecular viral load, duration of shedding, and viral area under the curve (AUC) in children and adult Hutterite colony members with laboratory-confirmed influen...
متن کاملLongitudinal study of influenza molecular viral shedding in Hutterite communities.
BACKGROUND The nature of influenza viral shedding during naturally acquired infection is not well understood. METHODS A cohort study was conducted in Hutterite colonies in Alberta, Canada. Flocked nasal swabs were collected during 3 influenza seasons (2007-2008 to 2009-2010) from both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals infected with influenza. Samples were tested by real-time reverse-tr...
متن کاملCharacteristics of respiratory viral infections during influenza season in Canadian Hutterite Communities
OBJECTIVES To determined the pathogen-specific incidence of respiratory virus infection in Hutterite communities occurring over the 2008-2009 influenza season and assess temporal characteristics of respiratory illness related to infection. METHODS 3273 participants community members enrolled in a cluster randomized trial of influenza vaccine were studied. RESULTS One hundred forty-nine part...
متن کاملEffect of influenza vaccination of children on infection rates in Hutterite communities: a randomized trial.
CONTEXT Children and adolescents appear to play an important role in the transmission of influenza. Selectively vaccinating youngsters against influenza may interrupt virus transmission and protect those not immunized. OBJECTIVE To assess whether vaccinating children and adolescents with inactivated influenza vaccine could prevent influenza in other community members. DESIGN, SETTING, AND P...
متن کاملProlonged Viral Shedding of Influenza Virus: Which Definition?
Influenza virus infection poses a considerable risk for complications to the general population and in particular to solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR). Life-long immunosuppression in SOTR likely contributes to delayed clearance of influenza virus from the airways: Prolonged Viral Shedding (PVS) has important implications for potential infectivity and infection control measures. Duration ...
