Age-related differences in influenza B lineage detection were explored in the community-based Canadian Sentinel Practitioner Surveillance Network (SPSN) from 2010-2011 to 2015-2016. Whereas >80% of B(Victoria) cases were <40 years old, B(Yamagata) cases showed a bimodal age distribution with 27% who were <20 years old and 61% who were 30-64 years old, but with a notable gap in cases between 20 and 29 years old (4%). Overall, the median age was 20 years lower for B(Victoria) vs B(Yamagata) cases (20 vs 40 years; P < .01). Additional phylodynamic and immuno-epidemiological research is needed to understand age-related variation in influenza B risk by lineage, with potential implications for prevention and control across the lifespan.
在2010 - 2011年至2015 - 2016年期间,通过加拿大社区哨兵医生监测网络(SPSN)对乙型流感病毒谱系检测中的年龄相关差异进行了探索。虽然超过80%的B(维多利亚)型病例年龄小于40岁,但B(山形)型病例呈现双峰年龄分布,27%的病例年龄小于20岁,61%的病例年龄在30 - 64岁之间,但20至29岁之间的病例存在明显差距(4%)。总体而言,B(维多利亚)型病例的中位年龄比B(山形)型病例低20岁(20岁对40岁;P <.01)。需要进行更多的系统发育动力学和免疫流行病学研究,以了解不同谱系乙型流感病毒风险的年龄相关差异,这可能对整个生命周期的预防和控制具有潜在意义。
