Molecular Assays for Detection of Human Metapneumovirus [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2003 ABSTRACT The recent description of the respiratory pathogen human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has highlighted a deficiency in current diagnostic techniques for viral agents associated with acute lower respiratory tract infections. We describe two novel approaches to the detection of viral RNA by use of reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR).

Pediatric burden and seasonality of human metapneumovirus over 5 years in Managua, Nicaragua
Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, 2022 Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is an important cause of pediatric respiratory infection. We leveraged the Nicaraguan Pediatric Influenza Cohort Study (NPICS) to assess the burden and seasonality of symptomatic hMPV infection in children.

Relevance of human metapneumovirus in exacerbations of COPD [PDF]
Respiratory Research, 2005 Abstract Background and methods Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a recently discovered respiratory virus associated with bronchiolitis, pneumonia, croup and exacerbations of asthma. Since respiratory viruses are frequently detected in patients with acute exacerbations of COPD (AE-COPD) it was our aim to investigate the
