complete genome sequence of human adenovirus 7 associated with fatal adult pneumonia.human adenovirus 7 (hadv7) 19bovlb/volgograd/rus/2014 was isolated from the autopsy material from an adult with fatal pneumonia in volgograd, russia, in march 2014. whole-genome sequencing of the virus isolate was performed.201627789645
development of a one-run real-time pcr detection system for pathogens associated with bovine respiratory disease complex.bovine respiratory disease complex (brdc) is frequently found in cattle worldwide. the etiology of brdc is complicated by infections with multiple pathogens, making identification of the causal pathogen difficult. here, we developed a detection system by applying taqman real-time pcr (dembo respiratory-pcr) to screen a broad range of microbes associated with brdc in a single run. we selected 16 bovine respiratory pathogens (bovine viral diarrhea virus, bovine coronavirus, bovine parainfluenza vi ...201728070089
molecular characterisation of fowl adenovirus type 7 isolated from poultry associated with inclusion body hepatitis in poland.the fowl adenovirus field strain fadv-jsn-5/10j (genbank accession number kp879219) was isolated from the intestine of a 7-week-old chicken diagnosed with inclusion body hepatitis and simultaneously with marek's disease, and for that reason, it was chosen for molecular study. it was identified as fowl adenovirus genotype 7 (species fowl aviadenovirus e) based on nucleotide sequence analysis of the loop l1 region of the hexon gene. nucleotide sequence alignment of this strain, fadv-7 reference st ...201728160143
an outbreak of acute respiratory disease caused by a virus associated rna ii gene mutation strain of human adenovirus 7 in china, 2015.human adenovirus 7 (hadv-7) strains are a major cause of acute respiratory disease (ard) among adults and children, associated with fatal pneumonia. an ard outbreak caused by hadv-7 that involved 739 college students was reported in this article. to better understand the underlying cause of this large-scale epidemic, virus strains were isolated from infected patients and sequence variations of the whole genome sequence were detected. evolutionary trees and alignment results indicated that the ma ...201728225804
clinical features of community acquired adenovirus pneumonia during the 2011 community outbreak in southern taiwan: role of host immune response.human adenovirus 7 (hadv-7) was responsible for a significant number of fatalities during the 2011 community outbreak in taiwan. the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of severe adenovirus infections in non-immunocompromised individuals remain unclear. adenovirus pneumonia was associated with pleural effusion in a number of patients from the 2011 outbreak suggesting that similar to bacterial pneumonia, patients diagnosed with adenovirus pneumonia who have pleural effusion are more severely a ...201728270104
bacterial and viral pathogen spectra of acute respiratory infections in under-5 children in hospital settings in dhaka city.the study aimed to examine for the first time the spectra of viral and bacterial pathogens along with the antibiotic susceptibility of the isolated bacteria in under-5 children with acute respiratory infections (aris) in hospital settings of dhaka, bangladesh. nasal swabs were collected from 200 under-five children hospitalized with clinical signs of aris. nasal swabs from 30 asymptomatic children were also collected. screening of viral pathogens targeted ten respiratory viruses using rt-qpcr. b ...201728346512
co-infection of fowl adenovirus with different immunosuppressive viruses in a chicken flock.in poultry, fowl adenovirus (fadv) and immunosuppressive virus co-infection is likely to cause decreased egg production, inclusion body hepatitis, and pericardial effusion syndrome. in this study, fowl adenovirus infection was found in parental and descendent generations of chickens. we used quantitative polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and dot blot hybridization to detect the infection of reticuloendotheliosis (rev), avian leukosis virus (alv), and chicken infectious anemia virus (ciav) in 480 p ...201829509913
