Abstract in brief

  • Human adenovirus (HAdV) causes significant acute respiratory tract infections (ARTI) and is responsible for outbreaks in China, though the prevalence and specific types involved are not well understood.
  • A systematic review of literature from 2009 to 2020 identified 950 relevant articles, revealing a disparity between prevalent HAdV types in hospital surveillance and those seen in outbreak situations.
  • The analysis found that while HAdV-3 and HAdV-7 are commonly detected in hospitals, HAdV-7 led most outbreaks, especially in military and school settings, with varying clinical outcomes influenced by the virus type and patient age, particularly affecting young children who experience worse outcomes, like pneumonia, from HAdV
