Hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) is the most common enteroviral infection in South-East Asia. When evaluating the role of enterovirus 71 (EVA71) as an etiological agent of infectious disease in South Vietnam, we revealed a high proportion of EVA71 among identified species A enteroviruses found in 3542 samples from HFMD cases; 125 samples from cases of enteroviral meningitis; and 130 samples from acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases. These represent 50%, 54.

Surveillance for acute flaccid paralysis syndrome (AFP) in children under 15 is the backbone of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. Laboratory examination of stool samples from AFP cases allows the detection of, along with polioviruses, a variety of non-polio enteroviruses (NPEV). The etiological significance of these viruses in the occurrence of AFP cases has been definitively established only for enteroviruses A71 and D68.

Rotavirus infection is one of the leading causes of acute gastroenteritis in children in their first years of life. We studied the genotypic diversity of rotavirus A (RVA) strains in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, during the period 2016-19. In total, 4714 samples of faeces from children admitted to the Nizhny Novgorod Hospital for Infectious Diseases with acute gastroenteritis were examined.

Currently, the full-genome-based classification is widely used to investigate rotavirus A (RVA) strains found in different countries around the world. However, the information on the full genotypes of rotaviruses circulating in Russia is limited. Using partial sequencing, this study determined the full genotype constellations of 15 RVA strains in total commonly detected in Nizhny Novgorod (European part of Russia) in 2017-2018, three from each of the following genotypes G1P[8], G4P[8], and G9P[8] and six from G2P[4].

Rotavirus A is a dynamically evolving pathogen causing acute gastroenteritis in children during the first years of life. In the present study, we conducted a phylodynamic analysis based on the complete sequences of 11 segments of rotaviruses with the G4P[8] and G2P[4] genotypes isolated in Russia in 2017. Since rotavirus has a segmented genome, our analysis was performed using the Bayesian approach based on separate samples of nucleotide sequences for each gene of the strains studied.
