Abstract
To examine whether genetic variations within the surfactant protein A2 (SP-A2) gene are associated with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease severity in infected children.Naturally infected children aged < or =24 months were prospectively enrolled in 3 RSV seasons. SP-A2 genotyping was performed. Independent clinical predictors of disease severity were analyzed. The association of SP-A2 genetic diversity and disease severity was tested by...
