Background: Rapid laboratory detection is essential to diagnose norovirus infection. LAMP has many advantages compared with RT-PCR for detecting norovirus, including high sensitivity, high specificity, rapidity, low cost, and intuitive results, which can be easily read with the naked eye with the help of color-based reporters. In this study, we intend to analyze the accuracy of LAMP methods for the diagnosis of norovirus infection.

Methods: Two researchers independently retrieved relevant literature up to January 2021 (PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, Wan Fang, and VIP). The researchers screened all articles and extracted their research data for meta-analysis. QUADAS-2 tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies by Review Manager 5.3. Forest plots were performed by Meta-DiSc 1.4 to evaluate the accuracy of the test. Deeks' funnel plot symmetry tests were conducted by Stata 15.0 to check the potential publication bias.

Results: Eleven sets of data extracted from the eight included studies were included for meta-analysis. For the detection of norovirus, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive LR, negative LR, diagnostic OR, and their 95% CI were 0.96 (0.95-0.97), 0.99 (0.99-1.00), 91.14 (31.88-260.56), 0.06 (0.04-0.09), and 1473.68 (562.96-3857.70), respectively. Besides, AUC in the SROC curve was 0.9920.

Conclusion: LAMP had high sensitivity and specificity in terms of the diagnosis of norovirus infection. However, further extension of this approach should be researched to ensure the accuracy and practicability of this hopeful test in the future.

Human norovirus is the leading cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide in all age groups. In this study, a rapid, high-sensitivity and quantitative detection method for VP1 protein of norovirus GII was developed based on time-resolved fluorescence microsphere immunochromatography. The optimal labeling amount and coated antibody concentration of norovirus monoclonal antibody were 10 μg and 1.

Norovirus is a highly virulent pathogen that causes enteritis in all age groups worldwide. Owing to the diversity of noroviruses, the development of vaccines and treatments is challenging, and an early and accurate diagnosis is crucial. Reference materials (RMs) developed previously for norovirus genotypes I (GI) and II (GII) were quantified using reverse transcription quantitative PCR.

Pertussis resurgence has been documented even in countries with high pediatric vaccine coverage. The proportion of isolates not expressing pertactin (PRN) has increased in several countries where acellular pertussis (aP) vaccines are used. We systematically reviewed published literature up to July 2023 on PRN-negative isolates in MEDLINE and Embase with no geographical limitations, complemented with a gray literature search.
