2. Human coronavirus ocurrence in different populations of Sao Paulo: a comprehensive nine-year study using a pancoronavirus RT-PCR assay
Human coronaviruses (HCoVs) are considered one of the most common respiratory viruses associated with respiratory tract illnesses. An emergent human coronavirus was identified as the causal agent of an epidemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) during 2002-2003. The severity of the disease combined with its rapid spread requires the continuous surv

3. Profilaxia da infecção por vírus sincicial respiratório: estudo clínico prospectivo de crianças submetidas ao uso de palivizumabe. / Prophylactic treatment of infection by the sincycial respiratory virus: prospective clinical study of infants to the use of palivizumab.
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is the most important etiologic agent in acute lower respiratory tract infections (ALRTIs) in children under two years, with high rates of hospitalization and death in high risk children for severe RSV infection. Objective: To identify the virus present in acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) and to analyze rates of ho

4. High prevalence of human bocavirus 1 in infants with lower acute respiratory tract disease in Argentina, 2007 - 2009
Human bocavirus (HBoV) is a parvovirus whose association with respiratory disease is currently under investigation. OBJECTIVE: To determine HBoV prevalence in children with lower acute respiratory infection. METHODS: We investigated HBoV in 433 nasopharyngeal aspirates collected in 2007-2009 from children 0 to 5 years old hospitalized with bronchiolitis or p

5. Impact of human metapneumovirus infection on in and outpatients for the years 2006-2008 in Southern Brazil
The human metapneumovirus (hMPV), member of the Paramyxoviridae family, has been reported as an important agent involved with acute respiratory infections (ARIs). The aim of this study is to identify hMPV as the etiological agent of ARIs on in and outpatients in the city of Curitiba, Southern Brazil, and describe clinical data of hMPV subtyping. A retrospect

6. Comparative study of clinical features of infections by one or more viruses in infants hospitalized with acute lower respiratory tract disease / Estudo comparativo das características clínicas das infecções por um ou mais vírus respiratórios em lactentes hospitalizados com doença aguda do aparelho respiratório inferior
INTRODUÇÃO: As infecções do aparelho respiratório inferior (IARI) constituem importante causa de morbi-mortalidade nas crianças abaixo dos cinco anos de idade e são responsáveis por um grande número de hospitalizações. Os vírus são os seus principais agentes causadores. A maioria das IARI, na criança, tem um único agente viral identificado. Co

7. Vírus sincicial respiratório como causa de infecções respiratórias em crianças hospitalizadas.
As doenças agudas do aparelho respiratório inferior (DARI) são responsáveis por altos índices de mortalidade e morbidade infantil em todo mundo. Dentre os patógenos predominantes encontra-se o vírus sincicial respiratório (VSR). Objetivos: Os objetivos foram: 1) avaliar a freqüência do VSR em crianças de 0 a 6 anos hospitalizadas por DARI em São

8. Baixos nÃveis de lectina ligante de manose podem estar associados a uma maior predisposiÃÃo à doenÃa pelo vÃrus respiratÃrio sincicial sem interferir na ativaÃÃo de linfÃcitos T
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of serious lower respiratory tract disease among infants and young children worldwide, and understanding the immune response to its infection is essential for intervention strategies. The innate-response serum mannose-binding lectin (MBL), which recognizes a broad range of pathogens and subsequently activate

9. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in infants hospitalized for acute lower respiratory tract disease: incidence and associated risks
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is one of the main causes of acute lower respiratory tract infections worldwide. We examined the incidence and associated risks for RSV infection in infants hospitalized in two university hospitals in the state of São Paulo. We made a prospective cohort study involving 152 infants hospitalized for acute lower respiratory tr

10. Pathological changes in virus infections of the lower respiratory tract in children
The pathological changes are described in 22 children with proven or suspected virus infection of the lower respiratory tract. Two main patterns of disease were found: acute bronchiolitis and interstitial pneumonia. Particular viruses were not specifically associated with particular histological changes. The prime importance of the respiratory syncytial viru

11. Prior Infection and Passive Transfer of Neutralizing Antibody Prevent Replication of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus in the Respiratory Tract of Mice
Following intranasal administration, the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus replicated to high titers in the respiratory tracts of BALB/c mice. Peak replication was seen in the absence of disease on day 1 or 2, depending on the dose administered, and the virus was cleared within a week. Viral antigen and nucleic acid were detected in bronch

12. Human Metapneumovirus Associated with Respiratory Tract Infections in a 3-Year Study of Nasal Swabs from Infants in Italy
The newly described human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is reported here to be more commonly associated with lower respiratory tract disease. The present study examined nasal swab specimens from 90 infants with acute respiratory tract infections in Pisa, Italy, over a period of three respiratory virus seasons. The incidence of infection varied in each of the 3 year
