[2] 75% of conjunctivitis cases are due to adenovirus infection. [13] In 2016, the Global Burden of Disease Study estimated that globally, around 75 million episodes of diarrhea among children under the age of five-years, were attributable to adenovirus infection. [12] The first adenoviral strains were isolated in 1953 by Rowe et al. [14]
In August 2022, 9 children in a U.S. case series of hepatitis of unknown cause [7] and 27 of 30 children in a U.K. case series with hepatitis of unknown cause who underwent molecular testing [8] tested positive for human adenovirus type 41 in a sample. It was unclear whether human adenovirus 41 was the cause, however. [citation needed]
Adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis, also known as epidemic keratoconjunctivitis, is a contagious eye infection, a type of adenovirus disease caused by adenoviruses. [1] It typically presents as a conjunctivitis with a sudden onset of a painful red eye, watery discharge and feeling that something is in the eye. [3]
Many studies use media with 1 to 2 mg/L of imipenem. However, bacteria that produce OXA-48 or OXA-181 result in low-level resistance, which cannot be detected efficiently due to the high concentration. [37] Therefore, more recent screening media use broth containing 0.5–1 mg/L imipenem or 0.5 mg/L ertapenem. The downsides to this approach ...
Type 1 infection can also cause respiratory and eye infections. CAdV-1 also affects foxes (Vulpes vulpes and Vulpes lagopus) and may cause hepatitis and encephalitis. Canine adenovirus 2 (CAdV-2) is one of the potential causes of kennel cough. Core vaccines for dogs include attenuated live CAdV-2, which produces immunity to CAdV-1 and CAdV-2.
In August 2022, 9 children in a U.S. case series of hepatitis of unknown cause [38] and 27 of 30 children in a U.K. case series with hepatitis of unknown cause who underwent molecular testing [39] tested positive for human adenovirus 41 in a sample. It remained unclear, however, whether human adenovirus 41 was the cause.
Adenovirus (particularly serotypes 11 and 21 of subgroup B) is the most common cause of acute viral hemorrhagic cystitis in children, though it can result from BK virus as well. A chemical hemorrhagic cystitis can develop when vaginal products are inadvertently placed in the urethra.
An adenovirus vaccine is a vaccine against adenovirus infection. [3] According to American CDC, "There is currently no adenovirus vaccine available to the general public. [4] It should not be confused with the strategy of using adenovirus as a viral vector to develop vaccines for other pathogens, or as a general gene carrier. [5] [6] [7]
