Human bocavirus infection in children with respiratory tract disease brieu2008human
Prospective 1-year study of children <5 years old hospitalized with respiratory tract disease, with asymptomatic controls, evaluating incidence and clinical features of human bocavirus (HBoV). Nasopharyngeal secretions were tested for HBoV; viral load was compared between monoinfections and coinfections, and persistence with subsequent detections was noted in a subset. This extraction contains patient-level longitudinal HBoV viral load measurements from a figure-derived CSV.

Human bocavirus (HBoV) viral load measured in nasopharyngeal secretions (assay/method details not provided in the supplied text/CSV). Values provided as quantitative viral load; negative indicates not detected.
Fitted by censored maximum likelihood. The red line is the median individual; the shaded region is the full range of a simulated cohort drawn from the fitted population, so it shows what simulating from this dataset would produce rather than a confidence interval, with dashed lines at the central 95%. Open triangles are non-detects, drawn at the censoring limit and entering the fit as "below this value" rather than being dropped. See the modelling methods for what these estimates do and do not support.
