ABSTRACT Children with an early severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection have an increased risk of wheezing later in life. This longitudinal study aimed to investigate whether children with a mild RSV infection taken care of in a primary health care setting had an increased incidence of wheezing in the 2 years following infection compared to ...

ABSTRACT Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV‐3) can be responsible for mild to severe respiratory infections and hospital epidemics. We investigated an outbreak in a hematology unit. Respiratory viruses were screened using multiplex PCR. HPIV‐3 quantification and whole‐genome sequencing were performed on HPIV‐3 positive respiratory samples. Clinical

Rates of transposition in Escherichia coli [PDF]
The evolutionary role of transposable elements (TEs) is still highly controversial. Two key parameters, the transposition rate (u and w, for replicative and non-replicative transposition) and the excision rate (e) are fundamental to understanding their ...

A study in Van, Turkey examined Bordetella bronchiseptica in shelter dogs using ELISA and PCR. Overall, 12% of blood samples tested positive. Serum amyloid A (SAA) levels were significantly elevated in positive cases, suggesting SAA could be a useful diagnostic marker for this chronic respiratory disease‐causing bacterial pathogen.

Determination of Serum Antibody to Bordetella pertussis Adenylate Cyclase Toxin in Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Children and in Children and Adults with Pertussis [PDF]
Presence of antibody to adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) has been noted following Bordetella pertussis infection. Because ACT is not presently in any acellular pertussis vaccines, it has been considered as a possible antigen to use in B.
