Rhinovirus C and respiratory exacerbations in children with cystic fibrosis

Emerg Infect Dis. 2010 Jun;16(6):996-9. doi: 10.3201/eid1606.100063.

Abstract

To investigate a possible role for human rhinovirus C in respiratory exacerbations of children with cystic fibrosis, we conducted microbiologic testing on respiratory specimens from 103 such patients in São Paulo, Brazil, during 2006-2007. A significant association was found between the presence of human rhinovirus C and respiratory exacerbations.
