Zoonotic Origins of Human Metapneumovirus: A Journey from Birds to Humans

Viruses, 2022
Metapneumoviruses, members of the family Pneumoviridae, have been identified in birds (avian metapneumoviruses; AMPV’s) and humans (human metapneumoviruses; HMPV’s).

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 ...

Cell-Mediated Responses to Human Metapneumovirus Infection

Viruses, 2020
Viruses are the most common cause of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTI). Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) frequently causes viral pneumonia which can become life-threatening if the virus spreads to the lungs. Even though hMPV was only isolated in 2001,

Virus‐Specific Impact of Respiratory Viruses on Adult Emergency Department Outcomes

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Few studies have examined the impact of community‐acquired respiratory viruses (CRVs) on emergency department visits and outcomes in adults. This study aimed to characterize the epidemiology of CRV infections and assess associations between virus types and clinical outcomes.
