Abstract:
Objective To investigate the predominant genotypes and epidemiological characteristics of human adenovirus (HAdV) in pediatric community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in China.Methods This was a repeated cross sectional study.Between November 2014 and November 2016,nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) or throat swabs from each hospitalized pediatric patients diagnosed as CAP in 12 hospitals in Northern and Southern China were collected.Respiratory specimens were screened for 18 respiratory viruses including HAdV by using Luminex xTAG RVP Fast V2 multiplex Assay.Typing of HAdV and analysis for the epidemiological characteristic of HAdV were performed.Results (1) A total of 2 723 hospitalized pediatric patients with CAP were enrolled in this study and 156 (5.7％,156/2 723) respiratory specimens were positive for HAdV,and 74 (6.6％,74/1 128) and 82 (5.1％,82/1 595) were in Northern and Southern China,respectively.There was no significant difference in the positive detection rate between the Northern and Southern China.(2) In Northern China,the HAdV positive rate of children at the age of ＜6 months,6 months-＜1 years,1-＜3 years,3-＜5 years and ≥5 years was 5.9％(6/101),6.7％(7/104),10.3％(34/331),4.1％(11/266) and 4.9％(16/326),respectively,and the incidence of HAdV infection peaked in children aged 1-3 years (x2=11.511,P=0.021).While in Southern China the HAdV positive rate of children at the age of ＜6 months,6 months-＜1 years,1-＜3 years,3-＜5 years and ≥5 years was 2.2％ (7/312),4.6％ (12/259),6.3％ (31/494),7.3％ (18/245) and 4.9％(14/285),respectively.There was no significant difference in the positive detection rate among age groups.(3) In 2015,the highest detection rate of HAdV in northern China was 12.5％ (25/200) in winter,and in Southern China was 6.7％ (35/525) in spring and 5.3％ (19/357) in summer.(4) In 108 cases of HAdV positive specimens typing was done and 80 in cases classification was successfully performed.Totally 7 genotypes of HAdV,including HAdV-3 (n=32),HAdV-7 (n=9),HAdV-1 (n=12),HAdV-2 (n=15),HAdV-5 (n=10),HAdV-6 (n=1) and HAdV-4 (n=1),were detected.The predominant HAdV genotypes were HAdV-3 (30.8％,8/26) and HAdV-7 (26.9％,7/26) in Northern China,while HAdV-3 (44.4％,24/54) and HAdV-2 (22.2％,12/54) were the most prevalent genotypes in Southern China.Conclusions HAdV is an important viral pathogen in pediatric CAP.The predominant HAdV genotypes and peak seasons of HAdV infections were different between Northern and Southern China.The predominant HAdV genotypes were HAdV-3 and HAdV-7 in Northern China,while HAdV-3 and HAdV-2 in Southern China.The peak season of HAdV infections was winter in Northern China.However,HAdV infections are more common in spring and summer in Southern China.
