Respiratory syncytial virus and other respiratory viruses

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2003
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a nonsegmented, single stranded RNA virus, infects one-half of all infants within the first year of life. RSV possesses pathogenetic qualities that may be attributed to the interplay of viral and host-specific factors including virus strains of different virulence, size of the inoculum, family history of asthma or ...

High incidence of multiple viral infections identified in upper respiratory tract infected children under three years of age in Shanghai, China. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) is a major reason for hospitalization in childhood. More than 80% of URTIs are viral. Etiological diagnosis of URTIs is important to make correct clinical decisions on treatment methods.
