Investigation on pathogen of Viral Encephalitis for 38 Patients

Objective To explore the epidemic feature and detect the pathogen of viral encephalitis. Methods 38 children suffering from viral encephalitis were investigated. The pathogenesis of cevebrospinal fluid (CSF) and stool from the patients were detected. Results The experiment on virus isolation from 24 samples of CSF and 32 samples of stool was carried out. Acho 30 and Coxsackie B were isolated from 2 samples of CSF. Acho30?Coxsackie B5 and Coxsackie B3 were isolated from 11 samples of stool. The type 3 of enterovirus was isolated from CSF and stool of 38 patients.The rate of virus isolation from CSF stool was 8.3%(2/24)、34.4%(11/32) respectively.The rate of Acho30 isolation from CSF、stool was 4.2%(1/24)、28.1%(9/32),respectively.Conclusion Acho30 was the main pathogen of epidemic viral encephalitis,and the pathogent of epidemic viral encephalitis was more than that of Enterovirus.
