Rhinovirus Infections in a Student Population: Isolation of Five New Serotypes1

Viruses associated with acute respiratory infections in Royal Air Force personnel

“…1967;Mogabgab, 1968;van der Veen, Oei & Abarbanel, 1969) and the preponderance of rhinovirus infections more closely resembles that found in the local population (Higgins, 1967) or among university students (e.g. Gwaltney & Jordan, 1966;Hamre, Connelly & Procknow, 1966;Phillips, Melnick & Grim, 1968) and families (e.g. Hendley, Gwaltney & Jordan, 1969;Fawzy et al 1967).…”

Human rhinoviruses: The cold wars resume

“…HEV, human enterovirus; EV, echovirus; CV, coxsackievirus; HPV, human poliovirus.

“…HRV strains seem to circulate without any identifiable pattern (Phillips et al, 1968). However, the apparent randomness can today be explained by the complex interaction between the many strains, host genetic heterogeneity and the unique immune repertoire accrued by each person and population over a lifetime of rhinoviral exposures.…”

“…ARTI is the leading cause of morbidity in children under 5 years (Bryce et al, 2005). No symptoms are pathognomonic for HRV infection (Phillips et al, 1968;Baer et al, 2007;van den Hoogen et al, 2003) so it devolves to the diagnostic laboratory to confirm the presence of HRVs (Barrett et al, 2006). Disappointingly, routine screening for HRV strains occurs infrequently because (i) testing is not always available (ii), HRV infection is often considered innocuous and (iii) because there are no treatments available.…”

Characterization of Four New Rhinovirus Serotypes

“…Included in the latter 34 serotypes are 3 rhinoviruses isolated during a study of acute respiratory tract illness in students (7). One, rhinovirus Baylor 7, has been designated the prototype strain of rhinovirus (RV) 83.…”
