A clinico epidemiological prospective study was carried out on acute viral infection of brain among children admitted in a rural based medical college from September '99 to Oct '01. Out of 80 cases, 8 cases (10%) of aseptic meningitis, 35 cases (43.75%) of encephalitis and 37 cases (6.25%) of meningo-encephalitis were found. Overall case fatality was 47.5% and found higher (77%) among normally nourished children in comparison to malnourished children (47.5%). Virological investigation did not isolate any known Flavivirus, Herpes Simplex virus (HSV) and Measles virus; nor any serological evidence against these viruses.
1999年9月至2001年10月期间,在一所农村医学院收治的儿童中,对急性脑病毒感染进行了一项临床流行病学前瞻性研究。在80例病例中,发现8例(10%)无菌性脑膜炎、35例(43.75%)脑炎和37例(6.25%)脑膜脑炎。总体病死率为47.5%,发现营养正常儿童的病死率(77%)高于营养不良儿童(47.5%)。病毒学调查未分离出任何已知的黄病毒、单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)和麻疹病毒;也没有针对这些病毒的血清学证据。
