Simultaneous viral infection and childhood bronchiolitis obliterans [PDF]
Lower respiratory tract infections by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are frequent in childhood. Association of RSV with bronchiolitis obliterans has rarely been established. We report a 13-month-old child with bronchiolitis obliterans following co-infection by RSV and adenovirus, and suggest that complicated evolution of an acute bronchiolitis case ...

The importance of viral load in the severity of acute bronchiolitis in hospitalized infants
OBJECTIVE: The relationship between viral load and the clinical evolution of bronchiolitis is controversial. Therefore, we aimed to analyze viral loads in infants hospitalized for bronchiolitis.

The Contribution of Neutrophils to the Pathogenesis of RSV Bronchiolitis
Acute viral bronchiolitis causes significant mortality in the developing world, is the number one cause of infant hospitalisation in the developed world, and is associated with the later development of chronic lung diseases such as asthma.

Infants hospitalized for Bordetella pertussis infection commonly have respiratory viral coinfections [PDF]
Background: Whether viral coinfections cause more severe disease than Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) alone remains unclear. We compared clinical disease severity and sought clinical and demographic differences between infants with B.

Viral bronchiolitis for the clinician [PDF]
AbstractViral bronchiolitis is common, and about 98–99% of infants are managed in the home. Because about 95% of infants <2 years old are infected with respiratory syncytial virus, however, bronchiolitis is the commonest reason for admission to hospital in the first 6 months of life.
