Human parvovirus B19 is a global and common infectious pathogen in humans, particularly in children.
To assess the immunoglobulin G3 seroprevalence of B19 in children in Israel.
Overall, 128 previously healthy children (1.5-17 years old) hospitalized for various diseases other than acute human parvovirus B19 infection were assessed for IgG to the virus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
The IgG seroprevalence increased from 22% in children aged 1.5-9 years to 52% in older children (P = 0.001).
Our data suggest that most acute parvovirus B19 infections in Israel occur in the early school years, and that by 18 years of age 50% of Israeli children have been infected by the virus.
人细小病毒B19是一种在全球范围内常见的人类感染性病原体,尤其在儿童中多见。
评估以色列儿童中B19的免疫球蛋白G3血清阳性率。
总共128名先前健康的儿童(1.5 - 17岁)因除急性人细小病毒B19感染以外的各种疾病住院,通过酶联免疫吸附测定法评估其针对该病毒的IgG。
IgG血清阳性率从1.5 - 9岁儿童中的22%上升至大龄儿童中的52%(P = 0.001)。
我们的数据表明,以色列大多数急性细小病毒B19感染发生在学龄早期,到18岁时,50%的以色列儿童已感染该病毒。
