Infants hospitalized for Bordetella pertussis infection commonly have respiratory viral coinfections [PDF]
Background: Whether viral coinfections cause more severe disease than Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) alone remains unclear. We compared clinical disease severity and sought clinical and demographic differences between infants with B.

Development of allergy in children. I. Association with virus infections. [PDF]
Children born into allergic families, with two allergic parents, are at high risk of developing allergy within the first 5 years of life. In order to observe possible external factors in the sensitization process, a prospective study of 13 such children ...

Improved detection of respiratory viruses in pediatric outpatients with acute respiratory illness by real-time PCR using nasopharyngeal flocked swabs [PDF]
Detection of respiratory viruses by realtime multiplexed PCR (M-PCR) and of RSV by M-PCR and immunofluorescence(IF) was evaluated using specimens collected by nasopharyngeal flocked swab(NFS) and nasal wash(NW).

Abstract Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common seizures in childhood, yet identifying children at risk of developing epilepsy after the first FS remains challenging. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic potential of machine learning (ML) algorithms applied to post‐febrile seizure electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.

Role of Heparan Sulfate in Human Parainfluenza Virus Type 3 Infection
Our current studies have demonstrated that human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV-3) utilizes heparan sulfate (HS) for its efficient cellular entry. HPIV-3 interacted with HS-agarose in vitro and the cellular entry and infection of HPIV-3 were reduced following (a) infection of human epithelial lung A549 cells with HPIV-3 pre-incubated with soluble HS;

A fatal case of neonatal viral sepsis caused by human parainfluenza virus type 3
Background Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome caused by severe infection in children, but cases of sepsis associated with human parainfluenza virus (HPIV) have been rarely reported in newborns.

Passaging of a Newcastle disease virus pigeon variant in chickens results in selection of viruses with mutations in the polymerase complex enhancing virus replication and virulence [PDF]
Some Newcastle disease virus (NDV) variants isolated from pigeons (pigeon paramyxovirus type 1; PPMV-1) do not show their full virulence potential for domestic chickens but may become virulent upon spread in these animals.
