Unlabelled: Respiratory viral infection are one of the most frequent problem in infant and the younger children. Respiratory syncytial virus infects nearly all children (75-100%) in the first 36 months of life.
Aim: Analysis of clinical aspects and treatment of respiratory syncytial virus infection in infant hospitalized in year 2009-2010 in Department of Pediatrics Propedeutics and Bone Metabolism Diseases.
Methods: Medical documentary of 32 infants in the first 6 months of life was analysed.
Results: The most frequent clinical symptoms were increased dyspnoea - in 96.88% children and discharge in respiratory tract - in 78.13% children. In near all patients (93.75%) antibiotic was used in treatment and Budesonid was applied in 87.5% children. Infants with Respiratory syncytial virus infections were hospitalized because of increased dyspnoea. Antibioticotherapy used in the examinated infants prevented complications.

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) remains a significant global health threat, particularly for vulnerable populations. Despite extensive research, effective antiviral therapies are still limited. To address this urgent need, we present AVP-GPT2, a deep-learning model that significantly outperforms its predecessor, AVP-GPT, in designing and screening antiviral peptides.

The development of antivirals for respiratory viruses has advanced markedly in response to the growing threat of pathogens such as Influenzavirus (IAV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and SARS-CoV-2. This article reviews the advances and challenges in this field, highlighting therapeutic strategies that target critical stages of the viral replication cycle, including inhibitors of viral entry, replication, and assembly. In addition, innovative approaches such as inhibiting host cellular proteins to reduce viral resistance and repurposing existing drugs are explored, using advanced bioinformatics tools that optimize the identification of antiviral candidates.

: Three respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines have been recently made available for older adults. Understanding the principal characteristics of the first vaccine-takers can pave the way for a successful vaccination campaign. The objective of this study was to explore the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the first Italian users of an adjuvanted RSV vaccine and their attitudes towards RSV and vaccination.
