Children (&amp;lt;18 years) with neuroinvasive arboviral infections (eg, meningitis, encephalitis, or acute flaccid paralysis) were included. Demographic, clinical syndrome, outcome, geographic, and temporal data were analyzed for all cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>During the study period, 1217 cases and 22 deaths due to pediatric neuroinvasive arboviral infection were reported from the 48 contiguous states. La Crosse virus (665 cases; 55%) and West Nile virus (505 cases; 41%) were the most common etiologies identified. Although less common, Eastern equine encephalitis virus (30 cases; 2%) resulted in 10 pediatric deaths. La Crosse virus primarily affected younger children, whereas West Nile virus was more common in older children and adolescents. West Nile virus disease cases occurred throughout the country, whereas La Crosse and the other arboviruses were more focally distributed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Neuroinvasive arboviral infections were an important cause of pediatric disease from 2003 through 2012. Differences in the epidemiology and clinical disease result from complex interactions among virus, vector, host, and the environment. Decreasing the morbidity and mortality from these agents depends on vector control, personal protection to reduce mosquito and tick bites, and blood donor screening. Effective surveillance is critical to inform clinicians and public health officials about the epidemiologic features of these diseases and to direct prevention efforts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2014-0498","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,8,12]],"date-time":"2014-08-12T00:32:35Z","timestamp":1407803555000},"page":"e642-e650","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":117,"title":["Neuroinvasive Arboviral Disease in the United States: 2003 to 2012"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"134","author":[{"given":"James T.","family":"Gaensbauer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Department of Pediatrics, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicole P.","family":"Lindsey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Arboviral Diseases Branch, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Fort Collins, Colorado"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kevin","family":"Messacar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Department of Pediatrics, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.
