Molecular epidemiology of enterovirus 71 in Taiwan
Archives of Virology, 2001Taiwan suffered a severe and widespread outbreak of enterovirus infection in 1998. More than 400 children were hospitalized, with seventy-eight fatalities due to central nerve system (CNS) involvement and cardiopulmonary collapse. Enterovirus 71 (EV71) was incriminated as the causative agent for the fatal cases.

Responses of IgM for enterovirus 71 infection
Journal of Medical Virology, 2002AbstractA rapid serological assay was developed for detection of specific IgM to enterovirus 71, a human picornavirus that is usually associated with severe central nervous system complications. The sensitivity and specificity of this “in‐house” μ‐capture enzyme linked‐immunosorbent assay was assessed by testing 213 serum samples. With the conventional

Neural pathogenesis of enterovirus 71 infection
Microbes and Infection, 2010Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a neurotropic pathogen that can cause severe neural diseases and complications on infected patients. Clinical observations showed that EV71-induced immune responses may be associated with virus induced neurogenic pulmonary edema.

Diseases Caused by Enterovirus 71 Infection
Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2009The purpose of this review was to explore the epidemiology, pathogenesis, virology, and management of enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection. Published literature was surveyed by Medline using the keyword "EV71." The reported incidence of cases of hand-foot-mouth disease/herpangina varied from year to year; seasonal variations in incidence were observed, with

MRI of Enterovirus 71 myelitis with monoplegia
Neuroradiology, 2000We report two boys diagnosed as having herpangina and hand-foot-mouth disease complicated by monoplegia during the outbreak enterovirus infection in Taiwan in 1998. Enterovirus 71 was identified in the stool and throat swab; neither polio nor Coxsackie viruses was identified. MRI showed unilateral lesions in the anterior horns of the spinal cord at T11-

Enterovirus 71: epidemiology, pathogenesis and management
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2009Enterovirus 71 (EV71) has emerged as a major cause of neurological threat in the world following the eradication of poliovirus. Most EV71 infections commonly result in hand-foot-mouth disease or herpangina, and some cases are associated with brainstem encephalitis and acute flaccid paralysis.

Update on the development of enterovirus 71 vaccines
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2014Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is an etiological agent that causes severe neurological complications in children. EV71 outbreaks have occurred throughout the Asia-Pacific region, posing a severe global public health threat; however, no specific therapeutic strategy exists for treating EV71-infected children.Five manufacturers have produced inactivated EV71 ...
