Background: Community-acquired respiratory viruses (CARV) cause upper and lower respiratory tract infections (URTI/LRTI) and may be life-threatening for recipients of an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT).
Methods: In a prospective study encompassing 4 winter-seasons, we collected throat gargles (TG) at random time points from allo-SCT recipients (patients) and controls and followed them up for at least 3 weeks including repetitive sampling and documentation of symptoms. A Multiplex-PCR system to identify 20 CARV and Mycoplasma pneumoniae was used to detect CARV.
Somatic Development in Children with Congenital Heart Defects.

January 2018
Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Saarland University Medical Center, Homburg/Saar, Germany.
Objectives: Somatic development is impaired in children with congenital heart defects (CHDs), and head circumference seems to be a strong predictor of neurodevelopmental prognosis. The aim of this study was to generate up-to-date reference values for the somatic development (head circumference, body weight, and length/height) of children with CHDs.
Study Design: Our study population consisted of all patients included in the PAN study (Prävalenz angeborener Herzfehler bei Neugeborenen in Deutschland), which was conducted prospectively over a 3-year study period by the Competence Network for Congenital Heart Defects.
