Key result
Enterovirus infections in neonates and young infants can lead to severe clinical manifestations and multiple organ involvement, highlighting the necessity for molecular diagnostics.
Why the study?
Enterovirus infections result in a wide range of diseases in neonates and young infants, creating a need to raise awareness of their seriousness and show the necessity of molecular diagnostics.
This review highlights the seriousness of enterovirus infections in the pediatric population and emphasizes the need for molecular diagnostics.
Enteroviruses are prevalent globally. They are transmitted by the fecal oral route and also the respiratory route. Although these viruses cause mild febrile symptoms in immunocompetent humans, their infections result in a wide range of diseases in the neonates and young infants. The pathogenesis of these viruses depends on the host and virus factors. This mini-review makes the readers aware of the seriousness of enterovirus infections in the pediatric population, and to show the necessity of the molecular diagnostics.
