Why the study?
The study was designed to identify whether certain types of enterovirus were more likely to cause severe respiratory illness during an increasing spread of upper respiratory infections in 2016.
Does EV-D68 infection cause more severe respiratory illness compared to other enterovirus and rhinovirus types?
Does EV-D68 infection cause more severe respiratory illness compared to other enterovirus and rhinovirus types?
EV-D68 infections are associated with more severe respiratory disease manifestations, such as dyspnea, compared to other enterovirus and rhinovirus types.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
EV-D68 may warrant closer dyspnea monitoring in respiratory infections; leaves open whether it causes more severe illness than other EVs or RVs.
Larsson et al. (2022) studied this question.
