Objective:To understand the pathogenic spectrum and epidemiological characteristics of febrile respiratory syndrome in Guangdong province, and to provide reference for disease prevention, clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:The pathogens of 1 891 nasopharyngeal swabs collected from 2011 to 2018 were detected by real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction. The different rates were compared by chi-square test or Bonferronni method of comparison.Results:Among 1 891 samples, 810 samples were positive for viral nucleic acid, with a total detection rate of 42.78%. The main infectious agents were Parainfluenza virus (PIV), Rhinovirus (RhV) and Coronavirus(CoV). The pathogen detection rate was higher in <5 years group and 5~ years group. Pathogen detection in patients with different symptoms showed that the detection rate of Metapneumovirus (MPV) in pneumonia patients was relatively high. Influenza virus A (FluA), PIV, CoV and RhV had higher detection rate in patients without pneumonia. FLuA and Adenovirus (ADV)had a relatively high detection rate in the high and ultra-high fever groups. The detection rate of CoV and Mycoplasma pneumonia(MP) in moderate fever group was relatively high. The detection rate of PIV in cough patients was relatively high. The prevalence of several viruses has strong seasonality, and the detection rate was generally higher in winter and spring. Different virus detection rates also have strong regularity in years.Conclusions:PIV, RhV and CoV are the main pathogens of febrile respiratory syndrome in Guangdong in recent years.

Objective:Luminex NxTAG? RPP kit was used to detect respiratory tract infection samples in Guangzhou, and the pathogen spectrum of respiratory tract infection in Guangzhou in the past year was summarized to provide reference for clinical diagnosis, treatment and disease prevention and control of respiratory tract infection.Methods:A total of 484 respiratory infection samples were collected from December 2018 to November 2019 from Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital and The Second People's Hospital of Guangdong Province. QIAamp MinElute Virus Spin Kit(50) was used to extract total nucleic acid, and Luminex NxTAG? RPP Kit was used to detect pathogens in the samples. Excel 2016 was used to draw the data and SPSS19.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:Among the 484 samples, 397 were found to be positive, with A total positive rate of 79.96%. Infection included Influenza A H1N1pdm09 virus (H1N1 2009), rhinoviruses (RhV), Metapneumovirus (MPV). In the age distribution, the positive rates of H1N1 2009, Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), Parainfluenza virus (PIV), MPV, RhV and Bocavirus (BoV) were relatively high in the children group. The positive rate of Influenza B virus (FLuB) in adult group was relatively high. The positive rates of H1N1 2009, RSV, MPV and BoV were higher in outpatients. The positive rate of FLuB was relatively high in hospitalized patients. In the pathogen detection of patients with different symptoms, the RSV positive rate of samples from patients with cough and sputum symptoms was higher. The positive rates of Coronaviruses (CoV), MPV and RhV samples from patients with nasal obstruction were higher. The detection rate of most pathogens is high in winter and spring.Conclusions:H1N1 2009, RhV and MPV are the important pathogens of respiratory tract infections in Guangzhou in 2019. Strengthening the research and monitoring of these pathogens can be the focus of the prevention and control of respiratory tract infectious diseases in Guangzhou.

Objective:To establish quality control products for 2019-nCoV detection, and provide reliable control materials for the quality evaluations of the 2019-nCoV detection kit based on fluorescence PCR.Methods:Virus strain was diluted to concentrations of 10 6, 10 5, 10 4, 10 3, 10 2 copies/ml which were used as positive control products. The mean value, standard deviation, coefficient of variability (CV) and tendency of the Ct values were calculated. The homogeneity and stability of the quality control products were tested. Results:Within the concentration gradients, Ct value and concentration of the control products were linearly related. In homogeneity test, the CVs of the quality control products with concentrations of 10 6, 10 5, 10 4, 10 3, 10 2 and 0 copies/ml were 4.60%, 2.67%, 2.22%, 2.04% and 2.50% respectively. In stability test, there was no significant linear trend with extended test time at 4 ℃. Conclusion:Evaluations of homogeneity and stability indicated that the quality control products were established successfully. And the products can be used for evaluation of 2019-nCoV detection kit based on fluorescence PCR.
