Long Term Sequelae of Mild RSV Infections in Healthy Children Aged 0–3 Years in the Primary Care Setting—A Prospective Two Year Follow Up Observational Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 6, June 2025.
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 ...

Clinical and Epidemiological Insights into a Parainfluenza Virus Type 3 Outbreak in Multiple Myeloma Patients

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 5, May 2025.
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

Investigation of the Correlation Between ELISA and Serum Amyloid A in the Diagnosis of Bordetella bronchiseptica in Dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
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]

open access: yes, 2017
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.
