Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Mayo Clinic Proceedings"
DOI: 10.1016/j.mayocp.2021.09.004
Abstract: OBJECTIVE We evaluated the incidence of influenza and non-influenza respiratory viruses (NIRVs) pre-/post-implementation of public health (PH) measures aimed to decrease COVID-19 transmission using population-based surveillance data. We hypothesized that such measures could reduce the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/21505594.2018.1504561
Abstract: ABSTRACT Viral infections of the respiratory tract can be complicated by bacterial superinfection, resulting in a significantly longer duration of illness and even a fatal outcome. In this review, we focused on interactions between S.… read more here.

Burden of influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and other respiratory viruses and the completeness of respiratory viral identification among respiratory inpatients, Canada, 2003‐2014
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses"
DOI: 10.1111/irv.12497
Abstract: A regression‐based study design has commonly been used to estimate the influenza burden; however, these estimates are not timely and many countries lack sufficient virological data. Alternative approaches that would permit a timelier assessment of… read more here.

Estimation of influenza‐ and respiratory syncytial virus‐attributable medically attended acute respiratory infections in Germany, 2010/11‐2017/18
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses"
DOI: 10.1111/irv.12666
Abstract: The burden of influenza in primary care is difficult to assess, since most patients with symptoms of a respiratory infection are not tested. The case definition of “medically attended acute respiratory infection” (MAARI) in the… read more here.
