The objective of this paper is to explain through the ecological hypothesis superinfection and competitive interaction between two viral populations and niche (host) availability, the alternating patterns of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and influenza observed in a regional hospital in San Luis Potosí State, México using a mathematical model as a methodological tool. The data analyzed consists of community-based and hospital-based Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) consultations provided by health-care institutions reported to the State Health Service Epidemiology Department from 2003 through 2009.
本文的目的是通过生态假说解释两种病毒群体之间的重叠感染和竞争相互作用以及生态位(宿主)可用性,利用数学模型作为方法工具,阐释在墨西哥圣路易斯波托西州一家地区医院观察到的呼吸道合胞病毒(RSV)和流感的交替模式。所分析的数据包括2003年至2009年向州卫生服务流行病学部门报告的医疗机构提供的基于社区和医院的急性呼吸道感染(ARI)会诊情况。
