This study conducted at the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine from April 1990 to December 1992, identified the etiology of acute lower respiratory tract infection (ALRI) in 119 (36.9%) of 317 hospitalized children < 5 years of age. A higher proportion of respiratory viruses (27.2%) than bacterial agents (10.7%) were identified. Viral agents (adenovirus, RSV, parainfluenza 3, influenza A and influenza B) and bacterial agents (mainly Haemophilus influenzae and Streptococcus pneumoniae) are the pathogenic agents involved in ALRI among Filipino children less than 5 years old.
1990年4月至1992年12月在热带医学研究所进行的这项研究,确定了317名5岁以下住院儿童中119名(36.9%)急性下呼吸道感染(ALRI)的病因。已确定呼吸道病毒(27.2%)的比例高于细菌病原体(10.7%)。病毒病原体(腺病毒、呼吸道合胞病毒、副流感病毒3型、甲型流感病毒和乙型流感病毒)和细菌病原体(主要是流感嗜血杆菌和肺炎链球菌)是5岁以下菲律宾儿童急性下呼吸道感染的致病因子。
