Seroepidemiological Studies of Aino Virus Infection in Korean Cattle
Aino virus infection is characterized by abortion, stillbirth, and congenital abnormalities such as arthropgryposishydranencephaly syndrome in calves. In Korea, Aino virus infection was first reported in 1997 by researchers who were investigating the cause of newborn calf deformities. Given the incidence of Aino-related deformities, the need for a study of the Aino virus infection status in Kor...
متن کاملMurine pneumonia virus: seroepidemiological evidence of widespread human infection.
More than 75% of a random sample of adult human sera exhibited moderate to high murine pneumonia virus (PVM)-neutralizing activity. There was no correlation between PVM-neutralizing activity and respiratory syncytial virus or parainfluenza type 3 virus-neutralizing activities of the same sera. In children the proportion of sera with moderate to high titres increased with age, indicating early e...
متن کاملPreliminary studies on the biology of Borna disease virus.
Borna disease virus (BDV) is an unclassified agent that causes neurological disease in a wide range of animal species and possibly in humans. The infectious nature of BDV has been long established but, despite extensive progress on the pathogenesis of the infection, the aetiological agent is still uncharacterized. Recent studies have shown that BDV replicates productively in cultures of foetal ...
متن کاملSeroepidemiological research on viral encephalitis in Karachi Pakistan--preliminary report.
Seroepidemiological investigations were done during the study of viral encephalitis in and around Karachi, Pakistan. Serum and /or cerebrospinaF fluid (CSF) from 352 persons (72 patients with encephalitis, 199 patients without neurological disease and 81 healthy volunteers) were collected during the period from June, 1983 to March, 1984.

متن کاملHuman Metapneumovirus and Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Brazil
We describe the epidemiologic and clinical characteristics of 111 children attending clinics and hospitals in Aracaju, northeast Brazil, with acute respiratory infections attributable to human metapneumovirus (HMPV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), or both in May and June 2002. Fifty-three (48%) children were infected with RSV alone, 19 (17%) with HMPV alone, and 8 (7%) had RSV/HMPV co-infec...
