Key result
Human rhinoviruses, including lineage C, and coinfecting respiratory pathogens were evaluated for presence and persistence in 54 adult stem cell transplant recipients.
The study evaluated the presence and persistence of human rhinovirus C and other respiratory pathogens in adult stem cell transplant recipients.
Rhinovirus persistence in stem cell transplant recipients may guide surveillance; leaves open clinical impact and management needs.
In 54 adult stem cell transplant recipients, the presence and persistence of human rhinoviruses (including the novel lineage C) were evaluated by molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis, independently from respiratory symptoms. In the same group of patients, the presence of other coinfecting respiratory pathogens, including the novel enterovirus 109, was also evaluated.
