Advancing Genomic Surveillance of Human Parainfluenza Viruses in Côte d'Ivoire Using Twist Hybrid‐Capture Sequencing

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human parainfluenza viruses (HPIV1–3) are major causes of acute respiratory infections, yet their genomic epidemiology remains poorly characterized in sub‐Saharan Africa. We evaluated hybrid‐capture sequencing for HPIV genomic surveillance in Côte d'Ivoire using respiratory samples collected through the national sentinel ...

A Pilot Placebo‐Controlled Randomized Trial of Repeated High‐Dose Intravenous Magnesium Sulphate and High‐Dose Nebulized Budesonide for Severe Asthma in the Paediatric Emergency Department

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 1948-1958, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Determine if high‐dose intravenous magnesium with/without nebulized budesonide for children with acute severe asthma is safe and reduces time to medical readiness for discharge compared to standard intravenous magnesium. Methods Either 2 doses of intravenous magnesium or 1 dose and placebo, each with/without high‐dose nebulized ...

Epidemiology of HBoV1 infection and relationship with meteorological conditions in hospitalized pediatric patients with acute respiratory illness: a 7-year study in a subtropical region

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) is an important cause of acute respiratory illness (ARI), yet the epidemiology and effect of meteorological conditions on infection is not fully understood.

Duration and severity of asthma‐like episodes in young children vary by viral and bacterial triggers

Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 37, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study investigates how specific viral and bacterial triggers and age are associated with the duration and severity of asthma‐like episodes in children aged 0–3 years. Rhinovirus, particularly rhinovirus C, and the bacterial pathogens Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis were associated with longer episode ...

Contamination of Human Bocavirus Genotypes 1, 2, 3, and 4 in Environmental Waters in Thailand

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
Recently, we reported the detection of HBoV genotypes 1, 2, and 3 in pediatric patients with acute gastroenteritis, and the detection of HBoV1 and 2 in oysters in Thailand. In this study, we report the detection of HBoV1, 2, 3, and 4 contamination in environmental waters within the same geographic area.

Causes and Contributing Factors of In‐Hospital and Post‐Discharge Mortality Among Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Infection in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: A Scoping Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Severe acute respiratory infections (SARI) remain a major cause of global morbidity and mortality, with a disproportionate burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Although in‐hospital mortality is frequently reported, deaths occurring after hospital discharge remain poorly documented.

Role of Respiratory Viral Infections in Airflow Obstruction After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Transplantation, Volume 30, Issue 9, September 2026.
Respiratory viral infection severity was not independently associated with post‐transplant airflow obstruction. Earlier infection onset after allo HCT may be more important than viral virulence or host factors in long term pulmonary outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Respiratory viral infections (RVIs) in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo‐HCT ...

Absence of Detectable Replication of Human Bocavirus Species 2 in Respiratory Tract

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Human bocavirus (HBoV) commonly infects young children and is associated with respiratory disease; disease associations of the divergent HBoV-2 species are unknown. Frequent HBoV-2 detection in fecal samples indicated widespread circulation in the United

A Bayesian Model for Estimation of Virus Reduction in Potable Reuse Treatment Trains and Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment of Waterborne Viral Pathogens

Risk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding virus occurrence and reduction at advanced treatment facilities for potable water reuse constitutes a high‐priority research need to protect human health and to enhance available water supply alternatives. The objectives were to (1) determine log reduction values (LRVs) of 15 viruses by advanced wastewater treatment; (2) evaluate

Neonatal Bloodstream Infections: A Narrative Review on Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenges and Prospects in Developing Countries

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infections (BSIs) pose a significant global health challenge, particularly in developing countries. Neonates are highly vulnerable due to underdeveloped immune systems and immature physical barriers, a risk amplified by poor hygiene and limited healthcare access in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), leading to an ...
