P

Population

985 pediatric and adult patients admitted to or staying in a hospital in Northern Italy with a diagnosis of acute respiratory infection.

O

Outcome

Detection and molecular typing of human rhinovirus species (HRV-A, HRV-B, HRV-C) and human enteroviruses.surrogate

HRV-C is a frequently detected rhinovirus species in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory infections, circulating at rates close to HRV-A.

Implication

HRV-C detection in hospitalized ARI supports species surveillance; leaves open differential clinical impact versus HRV-A.

Abstract

Human rhinovirus species C (HRV-C) was the second most common HRV species detected in hospitalized patients in Italy with acute respiratory disease during a 1-year surveillance period. Sequencing of the picornavirus VP4/VP2 region allowed molecular typing of HRV-A and HRV-B and provisional typing of HRV-C.
