Hierarchical clustering of clinical and flow cytometry parameters is associated with deterioration in patients with community‐acquired pneumonia in the emergency department: A preliminary study

Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anticipating the evolution of septic patients with community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) is challenging for front‐line physicians in the Emergency Department (ED). Prognosis depends mainly on early identification, antibiotics, organ support, but also immune status.

Recent Molecular Evolution of Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV): Subdivision of HMPV A2b Strains

Microorganisms, 2020
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a major etiological agent of acute respiratory infections in humans. HMPV has been circulating worldwide for more than six decades and is currently divided into five agreed-upon subtypes: A1, A2a, A2b, B1, and B2. Recently,

Human metapneumovirus prevalence and patterns of subgroup persistence identified through surveillance of pediatric pneumonia hospital admissions in coastal Kenya, 2007–2016 [PDF]

, 2019
Background Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is an important respiratory pathogen that causes seasonal epidemics of acute respiratory illness and contributes significantly to childhood pneumonia. Current knowledge and understanding on its patterns of spread,

Pneumococcal Coinfection with Human Metapneumovirus [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2006
Infection with the newly discovered human metapneumovirus (hMPV) may lead to hospitalization of children with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), although the pathogenesis thereof remains to be elucidated.This hypothesis-generating study involved a cohort of children randomized to receive 9-valent conjugate pneumococcal vaccine or placebo and who

Trends in resource utilization for new‐onset psychosis hospitalizations at children's hospitals

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children with new‐onset psychosis often require hospitalization for medical evaluation. Objectives The goal of this study was to assess variations in the management of children with new‐onset psychosis and characterize trends in resource utilization.

Clinical Features of Human Metapneumovirus-Associated Community-Acquired Pneumonia Hospitalizations.

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2020
BACKGROUND Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a leading cause of respiratory tract infections. Few studies have compared the clinical characteristics and severity of HMPV-associated pneumonia with other pathogens.

Clinical characteristics and risk factors of severe bocavirus‐positive pneumonia in children and a literature review

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
The study explored the clinical characteristics and risk factors of HBoV‐positive severe pneumonia in children. These findings indicate that HBoV can be identified in respiratory samples from children with severe pneumonia, denoting its role as a viral pathogen in hospitalized children with this condition.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus and Human Metapneumovirus Infections in Three-Dimensional Human Airway Tissues Expose an Interesting Dichotomy in Viral Replication, Spread, and Inhibition by Neutralizing Antibodies

Journal of Virology, 2020
Respiratory syncytial virus and human metapneumovirus are leading causes of respiratory illness worldwide, but limited treatment options are available. To better target these viruses, we examined key aspects of the viral life cycle in three-dimensional ...

Respiratory admissions and impact of COVID‐19 lockdowns for children with severe cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
In a population cohort of children with severe cerebral palsy, there was a reduced frequency of hospitalization for respiratory illness during periods of restricted social contact, implemented to reduce transmission of COVID‐19. This mirrored trends in the wider population and underlines the importance of community viral transmission in these children.
