Human bocavirus (HboV) is an emerging virus that has been implicated as a cause of acute upper and lower respiratory tract infection in children. As no serological assay is available, PCR was used to screen nasopharyngeal, serum or stool samples from 16 patients with Kawasaki disease for HBoV nucleic acid. HBoV was identified by PCR in five (31.2%) patients, suggesting that this emerging virus may also play a pathogenic role in some cases of Kawasaki disease.
人博卡病毒(HboV)是一种新出现的病毒,被认为是儿童急性上、下呼吸道感染的病因之一。由于没有血清学检测方法,采用聚合酶链反应(PCR)对16例川崎病患者的鼻咽、血清或粪便样本进行HBoV核酸筛查。通过PCR在5例(31.2%)患者中检测到HBoV,提示这种新出现的病毒在某些川崎病病例中可能也起致病作用。
