Human Bocavirus and Acute Wheezing in Children [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2007
Human bocavirus is a newly discovered parvovirus. It has been detected primarily in children with acute lower respiratory tract infection, but its occurrence, clinical profile, and role as a causative agent of respiratory tract disease are not clear.We investigated the presence of human bocavirus by quantitative polymerase chain reaction of ...

Increased Coinfection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydia pneumoniae Among COVID‐19‐Positive Kidney Transplant Recipients

open access: yesiLABMED, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 397-404, December 2025.
During the Omicron wave, COVID‐19‐positive kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) had sharply higher Mycoplasma pneumoniae/Chlamydia pneumoniae coinfection, driven by combined adaptive/innate immune impairment—not organ dysfunction—highlighting urgent tailored prevention for this high‐risk group.

Clinical characteristics and risk factors of severe bocavirus‐positive pneumonia in children and a literature review

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, Volume 3, Issue 4, December 2025.
The study explored the clinical characteristics and risk factors of HBoV‐positive severe pneumonia in children. These findings indicate that HBoV can be identified in respiratory samples from children with severe pneumonia, denoting its role as a viral pathogen in hospitalized children with this condition.

Clinical and Socioeconomic Burden of RSV Infections Among Older Adults in Primary Care: An International Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is increasingly recognized as an important cause of acute respiratory infections (ARI) in older adults. However, primary care data on RSV infections are scarce. Methods We conducted a prospective cohort study over two winter seasons (2022–2023 and 2023–2024) in Italy and the Netherlands ...

Bocavirus Viremia and Hepatitis in an Immunocompetent Child

open access: yesBalkan Medical Journal, 2017
Background: So far, many studies have shown that Human Bocavirus ( HBoV) is the main pathogen of the respiratory tract. Until now, there is no study that proves the association between HBoV and hepatitis.

The Etiopathogenesis of Kawasaki Disease: Evolving Understanding of Diverse Triggers

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Kawasaki disease (KD) is a leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. Evidence suggests that microbial and nonmicrobial triggers for KD differ across geographical regions and environmental conditions. Although the precise triggers remain unidentified, KD is likely caused by microbial or environmental agents acting on ...

Acute necrotizing encephalopathy causing human bocavirus

open access: yesThe Neuroradiology Journal, 2017
Acute necrotizing encephalopathy is characterized by multiple, symmetrical lesions involving the thalamus, brainstem, cerebellum, and white matter and develops secondarily to viral infections. Influenza viruses are the most common etiological agents.

Unveiling Origin Pitfalls in Metagenomic Surveillance for Emerging Infectious Diseases: Parvoviruses as a Model

open access: yesiMetaMed, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2025.
A diverse reagent‐associated virome, including parvoviruses, misleads zoonotic surveillance. By leveraging large language models (ChatGPT‐4o), we construct a virus discovery data framework (PVDDC) and ParvoDB to access and correct host misattributions, thereby enhancing the accuracy of metagenomic surveillance for emerging zoonotic diseases.
