Overview

Supports HBoV2 detection in GI evaluations; hypothesis-generating for its role in pediatric diarrhea and needs controlled studies.

Study Design

Type

Cross-Sectional (n=250)

Structured PICO

P
Population
250 Finnish patients (median age 40 years) whose stool samples were sent for diagnosis of gastrointestinal infection.
E
Exposure
Multiplex real-time quantitative PCR assay for detection of human bocaviruses (HBoV1-4)
O
Outcome
Detection and quantification of HBoV1-4 DNAsurrogate

A novel multiplex real-time PCR assay successfully detects and quantifies four human bocaviruses, identifying HBoV2 as a relatively common pathogen in young children with diarrhea.

Cite This Study

Kantola et al. (2010) conducted a cross-sectional in Gastrointestinal infection (n=250). Multiplex real-time quantitative PCR assay for HBoV1-4 was evaluated on Detection of HBoV1-4. A novel multiplex real-time PCR assay detected HBoV2 in 1.6% and HBoV3 in 0.4% of 250 stool samples from Finnish patients evaluated for gastrointestinal infection.
