Background With advent of molecular diagnostic technologies, studies have reported
detection of two or more respiratory viruses in about 30% of children with respiratory …

Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the predominant viral cause of childhood
pneumonia. Little is known about the role of viral-coinfections in the clinical severity in …

Studies have shown that simultaneous infection of the respiratory tract with at least two
viruses is common in hospitalized patients, although it is not clear whether these infections …

Background Results from cohort studies evaluating the severity of respiratory viral co-
infections are conflicting. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess …

viral bronchiolitis (AVB) by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Data source: the key words …

Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of acute lower respiratory
infection in children less than 5 years of age. The impact of non-RSV respiratory virus …

Background Lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) is a major cause of pediatric morbidity
and mortality, especially among non-affluent communities. In this study we determine the …
