Introduction: Respiratory infection is the most common human adenovirus (HAdV) disease accounting for 7-8% of viral respiratory diseases in children less than 5 years. Differentiation of bacterial infections and viral infections is a common clinical problem.
Material And Methods: One hundred oropharyngeal swabs obtained from October 2019 to November 2020 from patients attending the paediatric emergency room with suspicion of upper respiratory tract infection and negative results in influenza and RSV tests were included.
Article Synopsis
- A study screened 136 young pregnant women (≤25 years old) for Chlamydia trachomatis infection in Madrid, focusing on their urine samples after childbirth.
- The prevalence of the infection among the women was found to be 18.4%, with a confidence interval between 11.9% and 24.9%.
- The perinatal transmission rate of the infection to newborns was 35%, highlighting the importance of implementing antenatal screening programs for high-risk women.
