Elevated levels of immunoglobulin M antibodies against various pathogens, most frequently Epstein-Barr-virus and Coxiella burnetii, were detected by immunoassay in 15 of 48 patients (31.3%) with acute Puumala virus infections. Although the mechanisms leading to this IgM response are not clear yet, polyspecific immunoglobulin M antibodies have to be taken into account to avoid misinterpretation of serological results in acute hantavirus infection.
通过免疫测定法在48例急性普马拉病毒感染患者中的15例(31.3%)检测到针对多种病原体的免疫球蛋白M抗体水平升高,其中最常见的是爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒和伯纳特立克次体。虽然导致这种IgM反应的机制尚不清楚,但在急性汉坦病毒感染中,必须考虑多特异性免疫球蛋白M抗体,以避免血清学结果的误判。
