| clinical findings and results of treatment in an outbreak of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis in southern florida. | an epidemic of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis in miami, florida, involved approximately 800 documented cases and more than 2,500 suspected cases. this epidemic was caused by an enterovirus 70 infection affecting primarily young black people residing within a high-risk area. acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis is characterized by the rapid onset of swollen eyelids, foreign-body sensation, burning, watery discharge, and, usually, bilateral ocular involvement. signs include distinctive bulbar conjun ... | 1983 | 6849368 |
| oligonucleotide fingerprint analysis of enterovirus 70 isolates from the 1980 to 1981 pandemic of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis: evidence for a close genetic relationship among asian and american strains. | enterovirus 70 isolates obtained in asia and the americas between 1980 and 1981 from cases of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis were found to be very closely related by rnase t1 oligonucleotide fingerprinting. two closely related isolates from the first acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis epidemic (1969 to 1972) differed by many oligonucleotides from the 1980 to 1981 pandemic strains. the strong similarities of oligonucleotide patterns of isolates from the same epidemic but from distant regions of t ... | 1983 | 6307877 |
