Background. Few studies have examined the impact of rapid viral diagnostic tests on patient management. Objective. To assess effect diagnosis influenza A infections Methods. The medical records children with respiratory who were evaluated at a children's hospital between July 1, 1995, and June 30, 1997, reviewed. Children (n= 56) in Emergency Department (ED) had positive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) compared two control groups for likelihood admission, antibiotic use duration hospitalization...
A retrospective review of 86 neonates with candidemia hospitalized from January 1989 through June 1999 was conducted to determine the frequency ophthalmologic, visceral, or cardiac involvement. Retinal abnormalities were observed in 4 (6%) 67 infants whom indirect ophthalmoscopy examination performed. Abdominal ultrasound detected 5 (7.7%) 65 infants. Echocardiogram revealed thrombi vegetations 11 (15.2%) 72 Age at onset, presence central venous catheters, and species Candida not predictors...
Background. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most frequent cause of congenital infection, and both symptomatic asymptomatic infants may have long term sequelae. Children with CMV infection are chronically infected excrete in urine for prolonged periods. However, effect viral replication on outcome these children unknown. Objective. To determine whether duration excretion associated at 6 years life congenitally children. Methods. Longitudinal cohort study. were identified birth followed...
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has been reported to reshape the NK-cell receptor (NKR) distribution, promoting an expansion of CD94/NKG2C(+) NK and T cells. The role cells in congenital HCMV infection is ill-defined. Here we studied expression NKR (i.e., NKG2C, NKG2A, LILRB1, CD161) frequency NKG2C gene deletion children with past infection, both symptomatic (n = 15) asymptomatic 11), including as controls postnatal 11) noninfected 20). NKG2C(+) HCMV-infected individuals appeared particularly...
Background Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of tract infections in children globally, with nearly all experiencing at least one infection by age two. Partial sequencing attachment glycoprotein gene conducted routinely for genotyping, but relatively few whole genome sequences are available RSV. The goal our study was to sequence genomes RSV strains collected from multiple countries further understand global diversity a whole-genome level. Methods We samples and...
Placenta‑derived exosomes play an important role in cellular communication both the mother and fetus. Their concentration composition are altered several pregnancy disorders, such as gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The isolation characterization of placental from serum, plasma tissues patients with GDM have been previously described; however, to best our knowledge, date, there is no study available on isolated urine GDM. In present study, were purified 1st, 2nd 3rd trimester gestation....
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of pediatric death, with >99% mortality occurring in low- and lower middle-income countries. At least half RSV-related deaths are estimated to occur the community, but clinical characteristics this group children remain poorly characterized.The RSV Global Online Mortality Database (RSV GOLD), global registry under-5 who have died illness, describes dying through data sharing. GOLD acts as collaborative platform for deaths, including...
Human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) infection is usually asymptomatic but may cause disease in immunocompromised hosts. It has been reported that hCMV shape the NK cell receptor (NKR) repertoire adult individuals, promoting a variable expansion of CD94/NKG2C+ subset. We explored possible relationship between this viral and expression pattern different NKR including CD94/NKG2C, CD94/NKG2A, immunoglobulin-like transcript 2 (ILT2, CD85j), KIR2DL1/2DS1, KIR3DL1, CD161 peripheral blood lymphocytes from...
Abstract Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections, is classified in two major groups (A and B) with multiple genotypes within them. Continuous changes spatiotemporal distribution RSV have been recorded since the identification this virus. However, there are no established criteria for genotype definition, which affects understanding viral evolution, immunity, development vaccines. We conducted phylogenetic analysis 4,353 RSV-A G gene ectodomain...
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of respiratory infections and classified in two main groups, RSV-A RSV-B, with multiple genotypes within each them. For more than 30 have been described, without consensus on their definition. The lack genotype assignation criteria has direct impact viral evolution understanding, development detection methods as well vaccines design. Here we analyzed the totality complete RSV-B G gene ectodomain sequences published GenBank until September...
We study the relationship between tweets referencing Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) or COVID-19 symptoms and confirmed cases of these diseases. Additionally, we propose a computational methodology for selecting applying Machine Learning (ML) algorithms to predict public health indicators using social media data. To achieve this, novel pipeline was developed, integrating three distinct models ARI COVID-19. The dataset contains related respiratory diseases, published 2020 2022 in state San...
ABSTRACT The performance of a new, rapid, easy-to-perform assay based on neuraminidase enzyme activity for detection influenza virus types A and B was compared to by culture, indirect immunofluorescence, immunoassay in 479 nasal wash specimens from children with respiratory infections. Compared isolation the had sensitivity 70.1%, specificity 92.4%, positive predictive value 76.3%, negative 89.9%. There higher (76.4%) than (40.9%). Indirect immunofluorescence showed 59.8% 97% culture...
SUMMARY Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) presents as yearly epidemics in temperate climates. We analysed the association of atmospheric conditions to RSV San Luis Potosí, S.L.P., Mexico. The weekly number detections between October 2002 and May 2006 were correlated ambient temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity, vapour tension, dew point, precipitation, hours light using time-series regression analyses. Of variation cases, 49·8% was explained by study variables. 32·5% week...
We describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of adults hospitalized with pneumonia during pandemic (H1N1) 2009 outbreak. Patients admitted to a general hospital in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, from April 10 through May 11, 2009, suspected have influenza virus-associated were evaluated. identified 50 patients pneumonia; presence virus was confirmed 18: 11 virus, 5 unsubtypeable A 1 seasonal (H3N2), whom assay results for viruses positive. Eighteen treated intensive care unit, died....
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading etiological agent of acute respiratory tract infections and hospitalizations in children. However, little information available regarding RSV Latin American countries, particularly among adult patients.
