New Respiratory Viruses and the Elderly [PDF]
The Open Respiratory Medicine Journal, 2011 The diagnostics of respiratory viral infections has improved markedly during the last 15 years with the development of PCR techniques. Since 1997, several new respiratory viruses and their subgroups have been discovered: influenza A viruses H5N1 and H1N1, human metapneumovirus, coronaviruses SARS, NL63 and HKU1, human bocavirus, human rhinoviruses C ...

Aetiological role of viral and bacterial infections in acute adult lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in primary care [PDF]
, 2005 Background: Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are a common reason for consulting general practitioners (GPs). In most cases the aetiology is unknown, yet most result in an antibiotic prescription.
