Title: [Aetiology and importance of viral diseases of the respiratory tract (author's transl)]. Author: Schmidt J, Kittlick M, Süss J. Journal: Z Erkr Atmungsorgane; 1980; 154(1):4-17. PubMed ID: 6254280. Abstract: After discussion of the epidemiological situation of acute respiratory diseases and their economic consequences, and after a survey of clinical signs and symptoms, a review is given of the most important viral agents causing such diseases. That are influenza, parainfluenza, respiratory syncytial, adeno, corona, REO, and rhino viruses, which are prevalent in the respiratory tract. Viruses predominantly localized outside of the respiratory tract as well as bacteria and bacteria-like microorganisms are only shortly mentioned. Most weight is given to virological problems (morphology, antigenic structure), to pathogenic property and importance of viruses causing acute respiratory diseases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
