      Immunization during pregnancy has been recommended in an increasing number of countries. The aim of this strategy is to protect pregnant women and infants from severe infectious disease, morbidity and mortality and is ...
    • Impaired immune response in severe human lower tract respiratory infection by respiratory syncytial virus 
      Larrañaga, Carmen L.; Ampuero, Sandra L.; Luchsinger, Vivian F.; Carrión, Flavio A.; Aguilar, Nelson V.; Morales, Pamela R.; Palomino Montenegro, María Angélica; Tapia, Lorena F.; Avendaño, Luis F. (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2009)
      Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of acute lower respiratory infection in infants. The immune response plays a leading role in the severity of the disease. We hypothesized that severe RSV disease ...
