Among 39 children hospitalized in Colorado with aseptic meningitis or encephalitis, 16 (41%) had an etiology identified, including 2 (5%) with West Nile virus infection. Despite extensive testing, no other arboviral infections were identified. Arboviral infection should be considered in children with neuroinvasive disease during arboviral season with testing directed toward viruses endemic to the region and type of exposure.
在科罗拉多州因无菌性脑膜炎或脑炎住院的 39 名儿童中，有 16 名（41%）确定了病因，其中包括 2 名（5%）西尼罗河病毒感染。尽管进行了广泛的检测，但没有发现其他虫媒病毒感染。在虫媒病毒流行季节，应考虑到有神经侵袭性疾病的儿童患有虫媒病毒感染，并针对该地区流行的病毒和接触类型进行检测。
