Viral Etiology in Children Aged <2 Years with Clinical Suspicion of Bronchiolitis [PDF]
Background: Acute bronchiolitis is the commonest cause of lower respiratory tract infection in children under 2 years of age. There are no prospective studies in south India, which depict the viral epidemiology of bronchiolitis.

Predicting the severity of viral bronchiolitis in children
Acute viral bronchiolitis is one of the common causes of hospitalization and mortality, especially among children in the first year of life who have risk factors (prematurity, congenital heart defects, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, immunosuppression).

A Blood-Based Interferon Viral Score Defines Acute RSV Bronchiolitis in Infants [PDF]
Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of bronchiolitis and hospitalization in infancy. Reliable biomarkers reflecting host antiviral responses and disease dynamics are still lacking.

Impact of RSV Preventive Strategies on Hospitalizations for Bronchiolitis in Infants. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of bronchiolitis and hospitalization in infants. Since 2023, France has implemented two preventive strategies aimed at reducing RSV burden: long‐acting monoclonal antibody nirsevimab and RSV vaccine for pregnant women, the latter becoming available from September 2024.

Analysis of risk factors for the development of bronchiolitis obliterans in children with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia [PDF]
BackgroundBronchiolitis obliterans is a chronic obstructive lung disease characterized by irreversible airway damage, which leads to a poor prognosis. At present, there are relatively few studies on the risk factors for bronchiolitis obliterans caused by

Temporal-spatial analysis of hospitalizations for bronchiolitis in Brazil: prediction of epidemic regions and periods for immunization against the Respiratory Syncytial Virus [PDF]
Objective: Due to the high cost and short term of passive immunization against the respiratory syncytial virus, the main virus causing acute viral bronchiolitis, predicting epidemic regions and epidemic months is extremely important.
