| epidemiology of respiratory viral infection among paediatric inpatients over a six-year period in north-east england. | during a 6-year, hospital-based study at newcastle upon tyne five consecutive winter epidemics of respiratory syncytial (r.s.) virus infection occurred; the virus was identified in 1428 cases, showing that 1 in 50 live-births were admitted to hospital with r.s. virus infection. epidemics were inversely related to temperature and to number of hours of sunshine. parainfluenzaviruses, the second largest group of pathogens, were identified in 543 cases; most infections by this group were due to para ... | 1978 | 82045 |

| respiratory syncytial virus infection in north-east england. | during a period covering four winter epidemics 987 respiratory syncytial (rs) virus infections were identified in the children's wards that served a total population of about 875 000 in north-east england. the incidence of admission to hospital with rs virus infection tended to be twice as high among children in tyneside as that among children from the rest of the catchment area. the risk of hospital admission with rs virus infection in the first year of life for city children was about 1 in 50. ... | 1976 | 990783 |
| comparative investigation on different turkey rhinotracheitis (trt) virus isolates from different countries. | the present investigation was carried out to compare the antigenic relationship between trt virus isolates from different countries. the obtained results showed that all virus isolates shared similar physiochemical properties. in virus neutralisation tests marked two way cross reactions between but 1 = 8544 (england), stg 761/88 and stg 854/88 (germany) could be detected. on the other hand vco 3 isolate (france) showed only partial reaction. also the sds-poly acrylamide gel electrophoresis (sds- ... | 1992 | 1289042 |
| morbillivirus infection in two common porpoises (phocoena phocoena) from the coasts of england and scotland. | two common porpoises (phocoena phocoena), one found stranded on the isle of sheppey, kent, and the other in the moray firth, scotland, in late 1990, were examined post mortem. lesions of diffuse bronchointerstitial pneumonia were present in both animals; they were characterised by the infiltration of alveoli with leucocytes, macrophages and multinucleate syncytia, the necrosis of bronchial and bronchiolar epithelium, focal proliferation of type ii pneumocytes and occasional acidophilic cytoplasm ... | 1992 | 1441126 |

| dogs, distemper and osteitis deformans: a further epidemiological study. | there is extensive evidence linking paramyxoviruses, notably measles and respiratory syncytial virus, with paget's disease of bone. the epidemiology of paget's disease does not fit with that of known human paramyxovirus infections and it is possible that the disease is a zoonosis with domestic animals acting as host. canine distemper, a paramyxovirus of the morbillovirus family (closely related to measles) is therefore a potential candidate. we have surveyed previous pet ownership in 150 paget's ... | 1990 | 2268748 |
| epidemiology of parainfluenza virus type 3 in england and wales over a ten-year period. | we have analysed data on respiratory syncytial (rs) and parainfluenza type 3 (pf3) viruses reported to the communicable disease surveillance centre, london, over the period 1978-87. these confirm the annual winter epidemic of rs virus and show that, in england and wales, pf3 is a summer infection with regular yearly epidemics. | 1989 | 2544442 |

| avian paramyxovirus type 1 infection of racing pigeons: 5. continued spread in 1984. | the neurotropic disease of pigeons caused by a variant avian paramyxovirus type 1 virus was confirmed in 866 lofts in great britain during 1984, in comparison with 192 lofts during july to december 1983. the 1984 outbreaks were spread over 48 counties in england and wales and three regions in scotland. the main methods of spread of disease in the 1984 outbreaks appeared to be similar to 1983 with 574 of 866 probably resulting from contact with infected birds at, or travelling to, races or shows. ... | 1986 | 3705396 |
| evidence for the presence of avian paramyxovirus type 1 in feral pigeons in england and wales. | during the period july 1983 to june 1985, 76 submissions of material from feral pigeons were received. five separate submissions resulted in the isolation of an avian paramyxovirus type 1 (a/pmv-1) variant indistinguishable from the virus responsible for the 1058 disease outbreaks confirmed in racing pigeons up to the end of 1984. in addition 11 separate submissions of pigeon sera had haemagglutination inhibition titres of log(2)4 or greater to a/pmv-1 antigen. feral pigeons from six sites widel ... | 1986 | 3716123 |
| an outbreak of respiratory syncytial virus infection in a continuing-care geriatric ward. | a small outbreak of respiratory syncytial virus infection in a continuing-care geriatric ward during the period december 1982 to march 1983 is reported. it demonstrates that respiratory syncytial virus infection can cause serious lower respiratory tract infection even in patients without any previous history of chest disease. | 1985 | 4013906 |

| virus cross-infection in paediatric wards. | in a survey of virus cross-infection in paediatric wards there were 15 cross-infections due to respiratory syncytial (r.s.) virus and 16 due to influenza a, both during a four-month period, and 19 due to parainfluenza viruses over two years. the illnesses produced by these infections acquired in hospital ranged from a slight cold to severe pneumonia: in 17 of the 50 cases the illness involved the lower respiratory tract. a measure of cross-infection frequency in the form of a "cross-infection ra ... | 1973 | 4351623 |
| virus isolations from patients in general practice, 1961-71. | during the period 1961-71 of 1785 viruses isolated from patients in the general population 503 (28%) were rhinoviruses, 465 (26%) influenza viruses, 248 (14%) enteroviruses, 234 (13%) herpes simplex virus, 132 (7%) parainfluenza viruses, 129 (7%) adenoviruses and 49 (3%) respiratory syncytial virus. also isolated were 18 strains of mumps virus, 7 coronaviruses and 295 streptococci of groups a, c or g.fluctuations were observed in the frequency with which respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenz ... | 1974 | 4362413 |

| indirect haemagglutination test for the detection and assay of antibody to bovine respiratory syncytial virus. | an indirect haemagglutination (iha) test was used for the rapid assay of antibody to bovine respiratory syncytial virus. antigens for the sensitisation of formalised tanned erythrocytes were prepared by treatment of virus infected cells with non-ionic detergent. a close serological relationship was shown by the iha test between the strain of bovine respiratory syncytial virus used and the a2 strain of human respiratory syncytial virus. the iha test was sensitive and reproducible. a linear correl ... | 1983 | 6636489 |
| an outbreak of respiratory syncytial virus infection in an old people's home. | at least 20 of the 50 residents of an old people's home suffered from an acute respiratory infection and four of them died. respiratory syncytial virus was isolated from two of the patients. the importance of this virus in the elderly is probably underestimated. | 1984 | 6736667 |
