Encephalitis-Associated Human Metapneumovirus Pneumonia in Adult, Australia
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015 Human metapneumovirus pneumonia, most commonly found in children, was diagnosed in an adult with encephalitis. This case suggests that testing for human metapneumovirus RNA in nasopharyngeal aspirate and cerebrospinal fluid samples should be considered ...

Human Metapneumovirus Infections during COVID-19 Pandemic, Spain
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023 We describe an unusual outbreak of respiratory infections caused by human metapneumovirus in children during the sixth wave of COVID-19 in Spain, associated with the Omicron variant. Patients in this outbreak were older than usual and showed more hypoxia

Human Metapneumovirus in Severe Respiratory Syncytial Virus Bronchiolitis
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect segments of the M (matrix), N (nucleoprotein), and F (fusion) genes of human metapneumovirus in bronchoalveolar fluid from 30 infants with severe respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis.

Whole genome sequencing and evolution analyses of Human metapneumovirus
Virus genes, 2023 Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a major pathogen of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in children. Whole genome sequence analyses could help understand the evolution and transmission events of this virus.

Epidemiology of Human Metapneumovirus [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2006 SUMMARY Since the discovery of human metapneumovirus (hMPV) in 2001, the virus has been identified worldwide. hMPV is a common respiratory pathogen, particularly in infants and young children. The virus is associated with both upper and lower respiratory tract infections and may be a trigger for asthma.
