: Emerging diseases are of great interest, especially those associated with high mortality rates such as hantaviruses. We aimed to conduct a seroepidemiological survey to determine the levels of hantavirus infection.
: In-house enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect specific antibodies.
: Of the 429 samples collected, seropositivity of 3.9% to anti-hantavirus immunoglobulin G (IgG) was observed (CI 95%: 2.3-5.7). Moreover, in three cases, immunoglobulin M (IgM) was detected, of which two were diagnosed as hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS).
: Our data indicate the considerable occurrence of previous hantavirus infections, highlighting occurrences from sub-clinical cases to HCPS.
新发疾病备受关注,尤其是那些与高死亡率相关的疾病,如汉坦病毒。我们旨在开展一项血清流行病学调查,以确定汉坦病毒感染水平。
采用内部酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)检测特异性抗体。
在收集的429份样本中,观察到抗汉坦病毒免疫球蛋白G(IgG)血清阳性率为3.9%(95%置信区间:2.3 - 5.7)。此外,在3例样本中检测到免疫球蛋白M(IgM),其中2例被诊断为汉坦病毒心肺综合征(HCPS)。
我们的数据表明既往汉坦病毒感染相当普遍,突出了从亚临床病例到HCPS的发病情况。
