“…On the other hand, although this is a population study and we believe that all the infants who met the inclusion criteria for the two-year study period were included, the small sample size does not allow to draw definitive clinical and epidemiological conclusions about HPeVs from our data. It is possible that our study might have underestimated the prevalence of HPeV infection: performing viral diagnosis tests in both CSF and plasma could have increased the detection rates in patients with a low CSF viral load [3,12]; in addition, testing HPeV in newborns who were positive for other pathogens could have detected cases of concurrent infection.…”

“…El diagnóstico de sepsis o meningitis por HPeV se realiza mediante transcripción reversa y reacción de polimerasa en cadena (RPC-TR), que es el método de elección por su alta especificidad y sensibilidad 11,20,21 . Las muestras utilizadas para el diagnóstico y detección del virus alcanzan diferentes sensibilidades siendo mayor en deposiciones (95,1%), líquido cefalorraquídeo (LCR) (84,1%), sangre (79,3%) y menor en orina (56,8%) 22 . Su especificidad es de 100% en la identificación de los parechovirus hasta ahora descubiertos 11,22 .…”

Su especificidad es de 100% en la identificación de los parechovirus hasta ahora descubiertos 11,22 . Se conocen 16 genotipos, y recientemente se ha descrito un nuevo genotipo 17 23 , siendo más frecuentes en infecciones pediátricas los HPeV 1, 2 y 3; el tipo 3 es asociado con mayor frecuencia a enfermedad más grave [24][25][26] .…”
