Supports molecular enterovirus detection in pediatric aseptic meningitis; leaves open impact on hospitalizations without prospective validation.
Mamishi et al. (2013) conducted a cross-sectional in Aseptic meningitis (n=118). Enterovirus infection was evaluated on Enterovirus detection rate in cerebrospinal fluid. Enteroviruses were detected in 10.16% of cerebrospinal fluid specimens from children with aseptic meningitis, with serotyping achieved in 6 cases.
