Human metapneumovirus epidemiological and evolutionary patterns in Coastal Kenya, 2007-11 [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is an important global cause of severe acute respiratory infections in young children and the elderly. The epidemiology of HMPV in sub-Saharan Africa is poorly described and factors that allow its recurrent ...

Age‐Stratified Treg Responses During Viral Infections of the Central Nervous System: A Literature Review

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a vital role in limiting inflammation and resolving the immune response after a viral infection. Within the central nervous system (CNS), Tregs are especially important for the protection of neurons, which have limited regenerative capacity, and the preservation of myelin sheaths, which support neuronal function

Whole Genome Sequencing and Genetic Diversity of Respiratory Viruses Detected in Children With Acute Respiratory Infections: A One‐Year Cross‐Sectional Study in Senegal

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are a health priority, especially in countries with limited resources. They are a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially among children and the elderly. In Senegal, the endemic circulation of respiratory viruses other than influenza has been demonstrated.

Genotypes and clinical data of respiratory syncytial virus and metapneumovirus in brazilian infants: a new perspective

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
The aim of this study was to determine if there was a correlation between respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and metapneumovirus (MPV) genotypes and clinical data of Brazilian infants hospitalized for acute lower respiratory infection.

Cardiac Echocardiography Findings in Previously Healthy Hospitalized Children With Bronchiolitis – a Retrospective Study

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 60, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective Children less than two years of age with a prolonged or severe course of bronchiolitis are usually referred for Echocardiographic evaluation during hospitalization. Our aim was to assess the yield of Echocardiography (Echo) in these children and to assess possible characteristics predicting positive Echo findings.

Clinical findings and unusual epidemiologic characteristics of human metapneumovirus infections in children in the region of Basel, Switzerland [PDF]

, 2018
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) worldwide causes respiratory tract infections with features similar to those of RSV infection. We describe features of hMPV infections in children and compare some of the characteristics with those of RSV infections.

Metapneumovirus and its place in childhood [PDF]

Paediatrics & Child Health, 2003
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) was recently identified as a cause of acute upper and lower respiratory tract infection in children and adults. The epidemiology is similar to that exhibited by respiratory syncytial virus, with most episodes occurring during the winter months. The virus likely has a worldwide distribution.

Epidemiological Shifts in Children Respiratory Pathogens in Shenzhen, China: A Comparative Analysis Before and After the Relaxation of COVID‐19 Non‐Pharmaceutical Interventions

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The COVID‐19 pandemic and associated non‐pharmaceutical interventions significantly altered the epidemiology of respiratory pathogens. This study aimed to evaluate the changes in the prevalence and distribution of respiratory pathogens among children with acute respiratory infections (ARIs) before and after the relaxation of COVID ...
