Severe Human Bocavirus 1 Respiratory Tract Infection in an Immunodeficient Child With Fatal Outcome tabatabai2019severe

Case report of a fatal lower respiratory tract infection attributed to acute primary human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) infection in an immunodeficient 6-month-old boy. Serial quantitative PCR measurements of HBoV1 DNA were reported from serum and tracheal secretions over time.

Analytes

serum

Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) DNA measured in serum by PCR (quantitative values reported as provided in figure-data CSV); other methodological details not available in provided text.

observations for serum

Measurements only — no shedding model is fitted to this analyte, usually because it is sampled once per participant, leaving no trajectory to fit, or because nothing was ever detected. Open triangles are non-detects, drawn at the assay's censoring limit. See the modelling methods for what these estimates do and do not support.

Biomarker: bocavirus
Specimen: serum

trachealsecretion

Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) DNA measured in tracheal secretions by PCR (quantitative values reported as provided in figure-data CSV); other methodological details not available in provided text.
