“…Observation of the virus in cardiac tissue samples obtained after surgery on healthy patients is indicative of its cardiotropic properties. Variations in HBoV incidence exist among countries owing to cultural, healthcare, topographical, meteorological and socioeconomic factors [40].…”

Heart diseases in the Iraqi population are a significant public health concern. Iraq has experienced in the prevalence of heart diseases, including coronary artery disease, heart failure and hypertension. Different researches have shown that human Boca virus (HBoV) may be a risk factor, for some cardiac disorders. Hence, goals of resent work is to investigate roles of human Boca virus in ischemia heart disease (IHD) and to investigate roles of serum level of IL-23 in these diseases. 40 heart diseases patients and 40 controls were included. Controls were females (n=30) followed by males (n=10), while patients with IHD were 27 males and 13 females. There were highly significant variations in ages of patients and controls with (p≤0.01). The mean ± SE of age of patients with IHD was 37.90 ±0.75 years, while the mean ± SE of controls was 40.52 ±0.79 years. Lipid profile was measured. There were significant variations between patients' and controls. Also, mean ± SE of HDL was statistically significant between ischemia and control groups (85.28 ±4.31 and 55.10 ±1.23 mg/dl) with p≤0.01, respectively. The serum levels of IgG and IgM were assessed using ELISA. There was no significant variation in mean ± SE of serum level of IgM between ischemia and healthy controls (0.251 ±0.04 and. 0.341 ±0.07 ug/Ml). respectively. There were significant variations in mean ± SE of serum level of IgG between ischemia and controls (0.723 ±0.16 and. 0.076 ±0.004 ug/ml). There were highly significantly differences in Mean ± SE of serum level of 1L-23 between IHD heart diseases (0.407 ±0.073 Pg/mL) and healthy controls (0.0121 ±0.003 pg/mL) with p<0.001, respectively.

Epidemiology of Human Bocavirus in the Middle East and North Africa: Systematic Review

2021

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of studying newly emerging viruses that cause respiratory illnesses. Human bocavirus (HBoV) is one of the relatively newly discovered viruses that has been detected worldwide and causes respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, mainly in pediatric patients. However, little is known about the pathogenicity and evolution of HBoV. This systematic review was initiated to clarify the prevalence and circulating genotypes of HBoV in both respiratory and stool samples from patients of all age groups in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) from 2005 to February 2021. We performed an electronic search through Science Direct, Scopus, PubMed, Mendeley and Cochrane Library databases. We included all studies reporting the detection rate of HBoV in the MENA region. Data were extracted, and the quality of the included articles was assessed. We included articles containing data on HBoV only or with other respiratory or gastrointestinal viral infections. Review articles, case studies, and animal and environmental studies were excluded. The final number of articles included in this study was 65 articles. The results showed that the HBoV prevalence in children was the lowest in Iran (0%) and the highest in Egypt (56.8%). In adults, the lowest and the highest prevalence were reported in Iran, with values of 0% and 6.6%, respectively. Regarding the respiratory cases, our findings revealed no significant difference between HBoV prevalence among the tested categories (p-value = 0.998). The present study has shown that HBoV is common in children and adults in the MENA region. This systematic review highlights the need for more data on the role of coinfection of HBoV and other viruses, for instance, SARS-CoV-2 in children with acute bronchiolitis.

The aim: To find out the frequency of WU and KI polyomaviruses, and Human Boca and Adenoviruses infections among children with different types of acute upper respiratory tract infections and to compare the frequency of these viruses among immune-competent and immune compromised patients. Materials and methods: A case-control study conducted in children aged 3-18 years with acute upper respiratory tract infections. The samples were taken from: Group 1: 100 immuno competent children with acute upper respiratory tract infections. Group 2: 100 immuno compromised children (Leukemic, cancer, Nephrotic syndrome, chronic renal failure and children with renal transplant) with acute upper respiratory tract infections. Group 3: 100 apparently healthy children without respiratory infections as control group. Nasal swap samples were collected from children and then viral DNA extracted from these samples. Then detection of WU, KI polyomaviruses HBoV and HAdv was done by using real time PCR. Results: All of 300 samples were negative for WU and KI polyomaviruses. However, human Bocavirus was detected in the three groups (immunocompromised, immunocompetent and control group) and the positivity rates were 61.61%, 37.37% and 18.18%, respectively. While human adenovirus was found only in 2% of immunocompromised patients and 1.1% of immunocompetent patients also there were cases positive for both HBoV and HAdv in 5.5% of immunocompromised patients, and 8.8% of immunocompetent patients. Conclusions: High frequency of HBoV especially in immunocompromised patients while low number of positive cases for HAdv by using nasal swab samples, WU and KI polyomaviruses could not be detected in samples.
