Human coronavirus (HCoV) NL63, a newly discovered coronavirus, has been associated with acute lower respiratory tract infections (ALRTI). We detected HCoV-NL63 via reverse transcriptional PCR (RT-PCR) in eight out of 878 respiratory specimens freshly collected from hospitalized children with ALRTI between April 2006 and March 2008 in Childrens Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. Peak of HCoV-NL63 activity often appeared during the summer and autumn in Chongqing area. All children with HCoV-NL63 infection were <1 year of age. The diagnosis included bronchial pneumonia, bronchitis, interstitial pneumonia and bronchiolitis. All children recovered.
人冠状病毒（HCoV）NL63 是一种新发现的冠状病毒，与急性下呼吸道感染（ALRTI）有关。我们通过逆转录 PCR（RT-PCR）在重庆医科大学儿童医院 2006 年 4 月至 2008 年 3 月期间采集的 878 份急性下呼吸道感染住院患儿的呼吸道标本中检测到 8 份 HCoV-NL63。重庆地区 HCoV-NL63 的活动高峰期通常出现在夏季和秋季。所有 HCoV-NL63 感染患儿均<1 岁。诊断包括支气管肺炎、支气管炎、间质性肺炎和细支气管炎。所有患儿均痊愈。
