Nonetheless, multiple infections with other agents in EBV\/CMV-infected children have received little attention. We conducted a retrospective study of children with suspected infectious mononucleosis. Peripheral blood samples were analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence to detect EBV, CMV and other respiratory agents including respiratory syncytial virus; adenovirus; influenza virus types A and B; parainfluenza virus types 1, 2 and 3; <jats:italic>Chlamydia pneumonia<\/jats:italic> e and <jats:italic>Mycoplasma pneumoniae<\/jats:italic>.

In the patients with multipathogen infection and EBV\/CMV primary infection, fever, rash, lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, atypical lymphocytes and abnormal liver function were more frequent and the length of hospital stay and duration of fever were longer than in other patients.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Our study suggests that there is a high incidence of multipathogen infections in children admitted with EBV\/CMV primary infection and that the distribution of these pathogens is not random.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1743-422x-7-247","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,9,21]],"date-time":"2010-09-21T18:14:20Z","timestamp":1285092860000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":62,"title":["Coinfection with EBV\/CMV and other respiratory agents in children with suspected infectious mononucleosis"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Xia","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kun","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cong","family":"Wei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuan","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dongchi","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,9,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"992_CR1","first-page":"2701","volume-title":"Fields Virology","author":"ES Mocarski","year":"2007","unstructured":"Mocarski ES, Shenk T, Pass RF: Cytomegaloviruses.
