“…Viruses known to cause pneumonia in infancy and early childhood, such as adenovirus and influenza A, can cause severe, irreversible structural damage to the developing lung in susceptible subjects. [28][29][30] It is thus possible that a range of susceptibilities may exist in the population such that some young children may develop less severe impairment, as observed in this study.…”

“…More recent reports, although sparse, suggest that serotype 4 comprises 2% to 3% of the adenovirus strains found globally [51,52] and is associated with nosocomial outbreaks [53]. Adenovirus serotype 7, in contrast, comprises up to 20% of all reported adenovirus strains globally [51], is associated with numerous documented outbreaks [54][55][56], and is an important pathogen resulting in serious illness in children younger than 5 years of age [57][58][59]. It is felt, however, that the true incidence of adenovirus serotype 4 and serotype 7 disease is unknown and probably underestimated in civilian populations, given the current sparse capabilities and inconsistent efforts to identify the agents of respiratory illness outbreaks.…”

“…Actualmente, el adenovirus, especialmente el serotipo 7, se asocia a bronquiectasias y secuelas pulmonares graves. 48 En este sentido son factores de riesgo: edad menor de 12 meses, antecedente de hospitalización reciente por infección del tracto respiratorio inferior, inmunodeficiencia subyacente, antecedentes de neumonía o asma e infección nosocomial por adenovirus. 49,50 En países endémi-cos también destacan las micobacterias (M. tuber-culosis y micobacterias atípicas).…”
