Molecular and epidemiological study of enterovirus D68 in Taiwan [PDF]

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2017
Background/purpose: As an immunofluorescence assay for enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is not available in the enteroviruses surveillance network in Taiwan, EV-D68 may be the actual pathogen of untypeable enterovirus-suspected isolates.

Enterovirus D68 Outbreak in Children, Finland, August–September 2022

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We observed an intense enterovirus D68 outbreak in children in southwest Finland in August–September 2022. We confirmed enterovirus D68 infection in 56 children hospitalized for respiratory illnesses and in 1 child with encephalitis but were not able to

Enterovirus D68 Detected in Hospitalized Children With Severe Acute Respiratory Infections in Zambia. [PDF]

Influenza Other Respir Viruses
ABSTRACT Enterovirus D68 (EV‐D68) is a cause of severe acute respiratory infections (SARI) and is associated with acute flaccid paralysis. However, data on EV‐D68 in Africa, where SARI remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among children, remain limited.

Epidemiological and Clinical Characteristics of the Enterovirus D68 Outbreak in Spain in 2024. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Enterovirus D68 (EV‐D68) is a significant cause of respiratory and neurological disease worldwide. In 2024, Spain experienced its largest recorded EV‐D68 outbreak, accounting for 37.4% of all typed EV (294/892). This study describes the epidemiological, clinical, and phylogenetic features of EV‐D68 infections.

Respiratory enterovirus D68: virology, clinical surveillance, host-pathogen interactions, and therapeutic prospects [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), a unique enterovirus resembling human rhinoviruses, was long considered to cause only sporadic outbreaks of mild, self-limiting respiratory infections mainly in children.

Enterovirus D68 pneumonia in two older patients: A case report and literature review [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research
Enterovirus D68 mainly causes respiratory tract infections, with children being the main infected population and most adults experiencing latent infections. This report presents the cases of two older patients with enterovirus D68 pneumonia. Both of them

mRNA vaccine expressing enterovirus D68 virus-like particles induces potent neutralizing antibodies and protects against infection [PDF]

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) causes respiratory illness in children. It also causes severe paralysis called acute flaccid myelitis (AFM), which has become a global health threat. Here, we generated an mRNA vaccine expressing virus-like particles (VLPs) of EV-

Elucidating the role of human skeletal muscles in the pathogenesis of enterovirus D68 infection [PDF]

Life Science Alliance
Human skeletal muscles play a more direct role in the pathogenesis of enterovirus D68 through productive infection, which leads to structural destruction, functional loss, and hampered regeneration.
