脊髓灰质炎麻痹的晚期进展：发病机制探讨

Rev Infect Dis. 1984 May-Jun;6 Suppl 2:S568-70. doi: 10.1093/clinids/6.supplement_2.s568.

Progression of weakness and muscle atrophy may be seen years after paralytic poliomyelitis. This paralysis probably results from physiologic and aging changes rather than from persistent infection. Nevertheless, persistent neural infection with polioviruses can occur in animals and humans.

麻痹性脊髓灰质炎数年之后可能会出现肌无力和肌肉萎缩的进展。这种麻痹可能是由生理和衰老变化引起的，而非持续感染所致。然而，脊髓灰质炎病毒在动物和人类中都可能发生持续性神经感染。
