H Karte, I Wecker

    Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift (1946)
    |July 14, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Echovirus 30 caused abacterial meningitis and pharyngitis in Germany. Early diagnosis is crucial, with virus isolation from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) most effective within two days of illness onset.

    Area of Science:

    • Virology
    • Epidemiology

    Context:

    • Echovirus 30 outbreaks in Germany during summer 1976.
    • Observed cases of abacterial meningitis and pharyngitis.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the role of Echovirus 30 in abacterial meningitis and pharyngitis.
    • To determine the efficacy of diagnostic methods for Echovirus 30 infections.

    Summary:

    • Echovirus 30 identified as the causative agent in 48 cases of abacterial meningitis and pharyngitis.
    • Echovirus 30 was isolated from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in 11 children.
    • Diagnosis confirmed in 47 children via a rise in neutralizing antibodies.
    • Successful virus isolation from CSF was limited to the first two days of illness.
    • Rhabdomyosarcoma cell tissue cultures demonstrated high sensitivity to the Echovirus 30 subtype.

    Impact:

    • Highlights the significance of Echovirus 30 as a pathogen.
    • Emphasizes the importance of early diagnostic interventions.
    • Suggests rhabdomyosarcoma cell cultures as a valuable tool for Echovirus 30 detection.
