Abstract
Objective
To compare and explore the differences of clinical characteristics between human adenovirus type 7 (HAdV7) and type 55 (HAdV55) infections in adults, and to provide evidences for clinical management.
Methods
The data of clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, chest computed tomography and prognosis of 214 cases with HAdV7 and 235 cases with HAdV55 infections from 2012 to 2018 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The chi-square test was used for the categorical variables, and the rank sum test was used for the continuous variables of non-normal distribution.
Results
Compared with patients in HAdV55, those in HAdV7 group displayed more diarrhea (12.1%[26/214] vs 2.6%[6/235], χ2=15.583), more laryngeal lymphatic follicles (33.2%[71/214] vs 17.9%[42/235], χ2=23.566), more tonsil enlargement (56.5%[121/214] vs 20.0%[47/235], χ2=63.870) with secretions (33.2%[71/214] vs 11.5%[27/235], χ2=30.878), more leukocytosis (24.8%[53/214] vs 14.0%[33/235], χ2=8.318), more monocytosis (78.0%[167/214] vs 52.8%[124/235], χ2=31.364), more thrombocytosis (7.1%[15/212] vs 3.8%[9/235], χ2=5.835), more elevated level of C-reactive protein (80.8%[97/120] vs 64.3%[137/213], χ2=10.020), more abnormalities of liver function (alamne aminotransferase [ALT]: 13.5%[28/207] vs 5.6%[13/232], χ2=8.111) and myocardial enzymes (creatine kinase [CK]: 37.6%[77/205] vs 26.4% [61/231], χ2=6.246), creatine kinase isoenzymes ([CK-MB]: 35.6% [73/205] vs 11.1% [24/216], χ2=35.600), and all the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05, 0.01). Compared with patients in HAdV7 group, those in HAdV55 group displayed longer duration of diseases (7[5] days vs 6[5] days, Z=-2.632), more sore throat (72.8% [171/235] vs 62.1% [133/214], χ2=0.016), more headache (62.1% [146/235] vs 16.4% [35/214], χ2=97.527), more pharyngeal congestion (93.6% [220/235] vs 74.8%[160/214], χ2=30.602), more leukopenia (14.0% [33/235] vs 24.8% [53/214], χ2=8.318), and more elevated level of lactate dehydrogenase (12.6% [29/230] vs 6.3% [13/205], χ2=4.881), more pneumonia (71.5% [168/235] vs 31.8% [68/214], χ2=70.846) (all P<0.05, 0.01).
Conclusions
The clinical characteristics of HAdV7 and HAdV55 infections in adults are different. The type 55 infection is more likely to develop to pneumonia, while the type 7 infection has wider tissue tropism.

期刊介绍:
The Chinese Journal of Infectious Diseases was founded in February 1983. It is an academic journal on infectious diseases supervised by the China Association for Science and Technology, sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association, and hosted by the Shanghai Medical Association. The journal targets infectious disease physicians as its main readers, taking into account physicians of other interdisciplinary disciplines, and timely reports on leading scientific research results and clinical diagnosis and treatment experience in the field of infectious diseases, as well as basic theoretical research that has a guiding role in the clinical practice of infectious diseases and is closely integrated with the actual clinical practice of infectious diseases. Columns include reviews (including editor-in-chief reviews), expert lectures, consensus and guidelines (including interpretations), monographs, short monographs, academic debates, epidemic news, international dynamics, case reports, reviews, lectures, meeting minutes, etc.
