RÉSUMÉ

Objective To investigate the etiological agents of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in children in spring and summer from 2007 to 2008 in Beijing and the characteristics of the disease by virus isolation and to provide the scientific evidence for prevention and treatment for HFMD. Methods During April to August, 2007 and May to September, 2008, 356 clinical specimens including 255 throat swabs and 101 vesicle fluids were collected from 256 patients with HFMD who visited the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics and children with severe HFMD with neural system complications from Ditan Hospital and Youan Hospital All of the specimens were inoculated into Vero cells for virus isolation. After the cell pathogenic effects (CPE) appeared, the isolates were identified by RT-PCR with the universal primers within 5'untranslated region of enterovirus and typed by specific primers for VP1 gene of EV71 and CA16, respectively. The throat swabs from all of 10 severe HFMD were tested for enterovirus by RT-PCR addition to virus isolation. Results Out of 256 patients, 188 were positive for enterovirus by virus isolation, with the overall positive rate of 73.4%. Among the 356 clinical specimens collected from these 256 patients, 239 enterovirus strains were isolated with the overall positive rate of 67.1%. The positive rate for virus isolation from vesicle fluid samples was 75.2% which was higher than the positive rate of isolation from throat swabs (63.9%), but the time for CPE appearing in cell culture showed no significant difference. The positive rate of virus isolation from throat swabs from children with severe HFMD was 50% (5/10) which was lower than overall positive rate (73.4%) from regular HFMD. The RT-PCR typing for virus isolates revealed that among 45 enterevirus strains isolated from the specimens collected in 2007 by the universal primer pairs, 43 were CAI6 (95.6%, 43/45) and 2 were EV71 (4.4%, 2/45), whereas for the specimens collected in 2008, out of 143 enterovirus isolates by PCR with universal primers, 117 were EV71 (82.4%, 117/142) and 24 were CA16 (16.8%, 24/142). All of 10 severe cases were positive for EV71 by RT-PCR directly from clinical specimens. Conclusion CA16 and EVT1 were the etiological pathogens of HFMD in Beijing during 2007 to 2008 HFMD seasons. The dominant type of enterovirus was different between 2007 and 2008. Enterovirus type CA16 was predominant in 2007, whereas EV71 was predominant in 2008. All of severe cases of HFMD in children in this study were caused by EV71.
