Abstrakt: The article in the Journal of Medical Virology discusses the impact of rhinovirus (RV) on pediatric respiratory infections, highlighting the presence of viral co-detections and demographic factors. The study found that respiratory viral coinfections were present in 24% of cases, with Adenovirus being the most common co-detected virus. The research suggests that high RV viral load and underlying conditions are associated with a more severe clinical course, while bacterial coinfections were not clearly investigated. The study conducted in Italy also emphasizes the role of comorbidities in the severity of RV-associated acute respiratory infections in children. [Extracted from the article]
