Introducción: las infecciones respiratorias agudas virales se consideran una de las principales causas de mortalidad y morbilidad en pediatría, El Síndrome Respiratorio Agudo Severo o Grave 2 (SARS-CoV-2), se ha convertido en un importante problema para la salud pública mundial por su alta transmisibilidad, el objetivo del estudio es describir el comportamiento de los virus respiratorios detectados por RT-PCR en niños hospitalizados por infección respiratoria aguda (IRA) en tiempos de SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 en un centro de atención pediátrica de Cali-Colombia. Metodología: Estudio observacional de corte transversal retrospectivo, donde se evaluaron 113 pacientes mayores de 28 días y menores de 18 años entre marzo y noviembre del 2020, hospitalizados con diagnostico confirmado IRA y con Reacción en cadena de la polimerasa en tiempo Real (RT-PCR) positiva para virus respiratorios. Resultados: Predominio del género masculino (64.6%). en 74.3% se diagnosticó con IRA baja, los principales síntomas fueron tos en 92% y fiebre 74.3% Se identificó SARS-CoV-2 en 53%, Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus en 27.41% y Virus Respiratorio Sincitial en 15%. El 34.5% de los pacientes requirieron unidad de cuidados intensivos y 15.9% ventilación mecánica Conclusiones: La infección por SARS-CoV-2 fue más común en los pacientes hospitalizados tanto en salas generales como en la unidad de cuidados intensivos pediátricos.

Background: Human rhinovirus (HRV) is still the most prevalent viral infection in humans and a significant cause of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in many communities, including military personnel undergoing basic training. Objectives: In this research, we assessed the molecular epidemiology, genotyping, and phylogenetic classification of HRVs in Iranian military trainees with respiratory infections (RI). Methods: For HRV identification and genotyping, respiratory specimens were obtained, and RT-PCR was conducted for genotyping and phylogenetic analysis of HRV utilizing primers for the 5-UTR region. Results: Among 400 Iranian military trainees (average age of 21 ± 4 years, the range of 18 - 57 years) with respiratory infections, HRV was detected in 29 patients (7%) using RT-PCR. The direct sequencing of PCR products from 10 specimens showed that the incidence of type A (n = 5, 50%) was higher than that of type B (n = 4, 40%) and type C (n = 1, 10%). There were no significant associations between HRV and respiratory and clinical symptoms, blood group, and indoor or outdoor conditions (P-value > 0.05). Conclusions: This research was the first to record HRV as a significant cause of respiratory problems among military trainees in Iran, with a frequency of 7%. The most prevalent genotype was HRV-A, which may be applicable in epidemiological and clinical studies, as well as vaccination plans.

Abstract Acute respiratory infections (ARI) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the world and Indonesia. Information on the virus that causes ARI is still limited. The aim of this study was to detect the virus that causes ARI hospitalized cases in three sentinel surveillance hospitals of severe ARI. Laboratory testing of 30 nasal and throat swab specimens from ARI hospitalized cases at Deli Serdang Hospital, Wonosari Hospital and Kanudjoso Djati Hospital during August - September 2016. Laboratory testing were carried out at the Virology Laboratory of the Center for Biomedical Research and Development and Basic Health Technology. This research is a preliminary study using Fast-Track Diagnostics multiplex Real-time RT-PCR to detect 21 viruses. The viruses that have been detected are Human Metapneumovirus (21.2%), Human Parainfluenza Virus 1 (12.1%), Influenza B (6.1%), Human Coronavirus-OC43 (6.1%), Human CoronavirusNL63 (6.1%), Human Parainfluenza Virus 2 (3.0%), Human Rhinovirus (3.0%), and Human Adenovirus (3.0%). Of the 17 samples that tested positive for viruses, 14 of them were single cases of infection while the other three were cases of co-infection between Human Coronavirus-NL63 and Human Parainfluenza Virus 1, Human Metapneumovirus with Human Coronavirus-OC43, and Human Adenovirus with Human Rhinovirus. The most detected virus from ARI hospitalized cases are the Human Metapneumovirus. Abstrak Infeksi saluran pernafasan akut (ISPA) merupakan penyakit menular yang menjadi penyebab utama 1 morbiditas dan mortalitas di dunia dan Indonesia. Informasi virus penyebab ISPA masih terbatas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mendeteksi virus penyebab kasus ISPA rawat inap di tiga rumah sakit sentinel surveilans ISPA berat. Pemeriksaan pada 30 spesimen swab hidung dan tenggorok dari kasus ISPA rawat inap di RSUD Deli Serdang, RSUD Wonosari, dan RS Kanudjoso Djati selama bulan Agustus–September 2016. Pemeriksaan dilakukan di Laboratorium Virologi Pusat Penelitian dan Pengembangan Biomedis dan Teknologi Dasar Kesehatan. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pendahuluan menggunakan FastTrack Diagnostics multiplex Real-time RT-PCR untuk mendeteksi 21 virus. Virus-virus yang berhasil dideteksi adalah Human Metapneumovirus (21,2%). Human Parainfluenza Virus 1 (12,1%), Influenza B (6,1%), Human Coronavirus-OC43 (6,1%), Human Coronavirus-NL63 (6,1%), Human Parainfluenza Virus 2 (3,0%), Human Rhinovirus (3,0%), dan Human Adenovirus (3,0%). Dari 17 sampel yang dinyatakan positif mengandung virus, 14 diantaranya merupakan kasus infeksi tunggal sedangkan tiga lainnya merupakan kas us koinfeksi antara Human Coronavirus-NL63 dengan Human Parainfluenza Virus 1, Human Metapneumovirus dengan Human Coronavirus-OC43, dan Human Adenovirus dengan Human Rhinovirus. Virus yang paling banyak terdeteksi dari spesimen kasus ISPA rawat inap adalah Human Metapneumovirus.

To compare the sensitivity and specificity of RT-PCR with that of virus isolation in the detection of human rhinoviruses, we tested nasopharyngeal aspirates from 200 patients on the 1st and 7th days after the onset of the common cold. An assay utilizing a short amplicon in the conserved 5′ noncoding region was found highly sensitive. Of 192 positive samples altogether, 65 were found positive by RT-PCR only, 6 were positive by isolation exclusively, and 121 gave positive results in both tests.
