Title: Aetiological role of common respiratory viruses in acute lower respiratory infections in children under five years: A systematic review and meta–analysis Document date: 2015_6_17
ID: 13cotyfb_25
Snippet: Seven of the included studies [17, [20] [21] [22] [23] 25, 36] employed the WHO case definition for pneumonia [43] and this standardised approach enhanced the comparability of results between these studies. These criteria have high sensitivity for pneumonia [44] , but lower specificity with overlap with other conditions [45] , particularly malaria [46] and wheezing disorders. This tends to inflate the number of "cases" and may contribute to an ap.....
Document: Seven of the included studies [17, [20] [21] [22] [23] 25, 36] employed the WHO case definition for pneumonia [43] and this standardised approach enhanced the comparability of results between these studies. These criteria have high sensitivity for pneumonia [44] , but lower specificity with overlap with other conditions [45] , particularly malaria [46] and wheezing disorders. This tends to inflate the number of "cases" and may contribute to an apparent low level of detection of pathogenic viruses.
