Enterovirus infections in children. [PDF]
Enteroviruses (EVs) are major pathogens causing a wide spectrum of diseases in children worldwide. This review summarizes the epidemiology, virology, viral replication, and virus‐host interactions of EVs. It also highlights current advances in clinical diagnosis, antiviral therapies, and vaccine development, providing insights into future strategies ...

Protecting investments in polio eradication: the past, present and future of surveillance for acute flaccid paralysis. [PDF]
In September 2003 a WHO consultation group on vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPV) concluded that in order to prevent future generations of paralytic polio after interruption of transmission of wild poliovirus, the use of trivalent oral polio vaccine (OPV)

Immunity levels to poliovirus in Lao children and adults before the vaccine-derived poliovirus outbreak: A retrospective study [PDF]
In 2015, several provinces in Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR) experienced a vaccine-derived poliovirus outbreak. This survey was conducted (i) to evaluate the vaccination coverage in different settings and cohorts using the seroprevalence of ...

Recombination in enteroviruses is a biphasic replicative process involving the generation of greater-than genome length 'imprecise' intermediates [PDF]
Recombination in enteroviruses provides an evolutionary mechanism for acquiring extensive regions of novel sequence, is suggested to have a role in genotype diversity and is known to have been key to the emergence of novel neuropathogenic variants of ...

Postabsorption neutralization of poliovirus [PDF]
Nineteen neutralizing murine monoclonal antibodies against poliovirus type 1, including representatives reacting with each of the antigenic sites on the virion, were tested for their abilities to neutralize the virus either before or after attachment to susceptible cells.
