Global molecular diversity of RSV – the “INFORM RSV” study [PDF]
Abstract Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a global cause of severe respiratory morbidity and mortality in infants. While preventive and therapeutic interventions are being developed, including antivirals, vaccines and monoclonal antibodies, little is known about the global molecular epidemiology of RSV.

Role and Virology of RSV and RSV RNA Polymerase
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a highly contagious, respiratory virus that commonly infects children under the age of five. RSV infections can present as cold‐like symptoms which include a runny nose, coughing, and fever among other common symptoms; however, RSV can cause more severe infections such as bronchiolitis and ...

Timing of monoclonal antibody for seasonal RSV prophylaxis in the United Kingdom. [PDF]
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection produces more severe disease and increased hospitalization rates in high-risk babies. The monoclonal antibody palivizumab offers protection against complications, and the first of five monthly doses should be ...

The level and duration of RSV-specific maternal IgG in infants in Kilifi Kenya [PDF]
Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the major cause of lower respiratory tract infection in infants. The rate of decay of RSV-specific maternal antibodies (RSV-matAb), the factors affecting cord blood levels, and the relationship between ...

Contribution of RSV to bronchiolitis and pneumonia-associated hospitalizations in English children, April 1995-March 1998. [PDF]
Estimates of the number of hospitalizations attributable to specific pathogens are required to predict the potential impact of vaccination. All hospital admissions for lower respiratory tract infection (LRI) in children < 5 years in England in 1995-8 ...

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) immunoprophylaxis (IP) has been shown to reduce RSV hospitalization rates in high-risk infants; however, it is unclear whether RSV IP is associated with increased risk of non-RSV disease, particularly non-RSV hospitalizations.
