Immunopathogenesis of respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis.
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to elucidate the relation between respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection and cytokine/chemokine concentrations, as well as the impact that these factors have on the severity of bronchiolitis. METHODS Children <24 months old who presented to the emergency department with clinical symptoms of bronchiolitis were prospectively enrolled in the study....
متن کاملCreola bodies in infancy with respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis predict the development of asthma.
BACKGROUND Creola bodies (CrBs) in the sputum are an indicator of respiratory epithelial damage and appear specifically in bronchial asthma. We studied the presence and clinical significance of CrBs in infants with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis contributing to the development of asthma. METHODS Aspirated sputum samples were collected from 33 infants admitted with acute RSV b...
متن کاملIdentification of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Genome in the Stool of a Child with Acute Gastroenteritis

In this case we present isolation of human respiratory virus (RSV) type B from diarrheal sample of a 12 months' child with acute gastroenteritis. Results: The results indicated the presence of RSV subtype B genome in all three stool samples. Moreover, no sign of co-infections with oth...

متن کاملEnhanced IL-4 responses in children with a history of respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis in infancy.
Infants who recover from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-induced bronchiolitis are at high risk of developing asthma and recurrent wheezing. It is not known whether severe RSV infection itself causes persistent effects or is a marker of a "wheezy" predisposition. To determine the long-term immunological correlates of infantile bronchiolitis, interleukin (IL)-4 and interferon (IFN)-gamma respo...
