To determine the optimal strategy to investigate mumps virus infection in a partially vaccinated cohort.
122 oral fluid and serum samples were collected in a recent outbreak in Ireland. The largest age cohort, students aged 18-21 years old attending third level institutions, were investigated using virus isolation, detection of mumps specific IgM, IgG, RT-PCR and molecular genotyping.
97% of patients had both detectable serum IgM and IgG. Mumps virus RNA was detected in 17 oral fluid samples and 14 of these originated from a single geographic location. Only 6 of the IgM positive samples had detectable mumps virus RNA whereas this could be detected in 11 IgM negative samples. Genotyping studies revealed that genotypes G and J were co-circulating during this outbreak.
The use of an oral fluid sample to detect mumps virus RNA and IgM offers a major improvement over serological diagnosis in acute infection in both non-vaccinated or partially vaccinated individuals, and has the advantage that specimens are collected non-invasively.
确定在部分接种疫苗人群中调查腮腺炎病毒感染的最佳策略。
在爱尔兰最近一次疫情中收集了122份口腔液和血清样本。对最大年龄组,即就读于第三级机构的18 - 21岁学生,采用病毒分离、腮腺炎特异性IgM、IgG检测、逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)和分子基因分型进行调查。
97%的患者血清中均可检测到IgM和IgG。在17份口腔液样本中检测到腮腺炎病毒RNA,其中14份来自单一地理位置。仅6份IgM阳性样本可检测到腮腺炎病毒RNA,而在11份IgM阴性样本中可检测到该病毒RNA。基因分型研究表明,在此次疫情期间基因型G和J共同传播。
使用口腔液样本检测腮腺炎病毒RNA和IgM,相较于非接种或部分接种个体急性感染时的血清学诊断有重大改进,且具有样本采集无创的优势。
