We report 27 children with respiratorytractdisease in whom cytomegalovirus was isolated.
2
Underlying conditions such as dental infections, malignancy, gastrointestinal and respiratorytractdisease accounted for 42% of cases.
3
Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae is a major cause of localized respiratorytractdisease and initiates infection by colonizing the nasopharynx.
4
Influenza is a highly contagious, acute upper respiratorytractdisease caused by influenza virus, a member of the Orthomyxoviridae family.
5
The lower respiratorytractdisease observed in cynomolgus macaques mimicked the clinical and pathological features of severe GAS bronchopneumonia in humans.
6
Numerous tortoise species of conservation concern can be infected by pathogenic mycoplasmas that cause a chronic upper respiratorytractdisease (URTD).
7
Conclusion: Presence of fever enhanced 2.5 times the chance of children hospitalized with lower respiratorytractdisease to have radiographically diagnosed pneumonia.
8
The clinical course ranged from self-limited upper respiratory tract infections (2 patients) to severe lower respiratorytractdisease (6 patients) associated with a 50% mortality.
9
Among women this was mainly due to lung cancer and chronic lower respiratorytractdiseases.
10
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes substantial lower respiratorytractdisease in children and at-risk adults.
11
Chronic lower respiratorytractdiseases contributed more to the disparities in inequalities among women than among men.
12
Among men, absolute inequalities mainly increased as a result of cardiovascular diseases, lung cancer, and chronic lower respiratorytractdiseases.
13
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is the leading cause of acute respiratorytractdisease in children less than 5 years old.
14
The morbidity and mortality related to respiratorytractdiseases is enormous, with hundreds of millions of individuals afflicted and four million people dying each year.
