coxsackievirus b5 infection and aseptic meningitis in neonates and children.in metropolitan washington, dc, an outbreak of aseptic meningitis in children was recognized in the summer and fall of 1972. age-specific attack rates were highest in children less than 1 year of age. the incidence of cases showed two peaks: one in july and another in october. coxsackievirus b5 was associated with cases occurring in july, august, and september, but was not implicated in the october cases. seventy-six percent of the confirmed coxsackievirus b5 infections in aseptic meningitis pat ...19751121962

outbreak of coxsackie a1 gastroenteritis: a complication of bone-marrow transplantation.in a three-week period 7 of 14 transplant recipients were infected with coxsackie a1 virus. diarrhoea and mortality were significantly associated with infection (7 of 7 infected compared with 0 of 7 non-infected, and 6 of 7 infected compared with 1 of 7 non-infected, respectively). early in the outbreak, the diarrhoea was presumed to be due to acute graft-versus-host disease (agvhd). however, the distribution of agvhd among infected and non-infected patients was nearly equal, and at necropsy 3 o ...19826122055
a predominant role for norwalk-like viruses as agents of epidemic gastroenteritis in maryland nursing homes for the elderly.stool specimens from 156 maryland nursing home residents, who became ill during 20 outbreaks of gastroenteritis from november 1987 through february 1988, were analyzed. all tested negative for astroviruses, enteroviruses, group a rotaviruses, sapporo-like caliciviruses, and enteric bacteria (i.e., salmonella, clostridium, and shigella species). eighty-two (52%) were positive for norwalk-like viruses (nlvs), members of the family caliciviridae. six distinct genetic clusters within genogroups i an ...200211807686
aseptic meningitis epidemic during a west nile virus avian epizootic.while enteroviruses have been the most commonly identified cause of aseptic meningitis in the united states, the role of the emerging, neurotropic west nile virus (wnv) is not clear. in summer 2001, an aseptic meningitis epidemic occurring in an area of a wnv epizootic in baltimore, maryland, was investigated to determine the relative contributions of wnv and enteroviruses. a total of 113 aseptic meningitis cases with onsets from june 1 to september 30, 2001, were identified at six hospitals. wn ...200314519244
bovine enterovirus 2: complete genomic sequence and molecular modelling of a reference strain and a wild-type isolate from endemically infected us cattle.bovine enteroviruses are members of the family picornaviridae, genus enterovirus. whilst little is known about their pathogenic potential, they are apparently endemic in some cattle and cattle environments. only one of the two current serotypes has been sequenced completely. in this report, the entire genome sequences of bovine enterovirus 2 (bev-2) strain ps87 and a recent isolate from an endemically infected herd in maryland, usa (wye3a) are presented. the recent isolate clearly segregated phy ...200415483232
