The flu (short for influenza) is a respiratory virus that affects the throat, nose, bronchi and, sometimes, the lungs.
Influenza viruses are segmented, single-stranded RNA viruses in the orthomyxovirus family that infect mammals and birds; they can be classified into types A, B and C. Influenza A and B viruses primarily cause serious disease in humans, as evidenced by yearly outbreaks worldwide. Influenza virus...
has been highlighted. Two new NAIs namedperamivirandlaninamivirhave recently been developed (Sidwell and Smee, 2002;Koyama et al., 2009). Peramivir is available forIV injectionand has shown activity against various zanamivir- and oseltamivir-resistant influenza A and B viruses (Mishin et al., ...

double-dummy, phase 1b trial, individuals aged 65-85 years who were considered healthy or with stable chronic conditions with no recent (<6 months) influenza vaccinations were recruited from five clinical trial sites in the USA and randomly assigned (3:3:3:1) using a permuted block design ...

There are three genera of the family: Influenzavirus A, Influenzavirus B, and Influenzavirus C. The Influenzavirus A genus has one species, which is influenzavirus A. This virus naturally infects a range of species, especially migratory aquatic birds, and may be transmitted to animals and ...
These eight viruses were obtained from children aged 7–14 years, with a median fever duration of 16.7 h and a median symptom duration of 93.7 h, which were similar to those of the wild type. However, the delayed viral clearance associated with the emergence of PA substitutions was observed...
More than 80% had low handgrip strength and low physical activity levels. Compared to patients with influenza, patients with COVID-19 had increased levels of interferon (IFN)-γ (mean difference (MD) 4.14; 95% CI 1.36–12.58; p = 0.008), interleukin (IL)-4 (MD 1.82; 95% CI ...
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a highly contagious respiratory pathogen that annually infects 5–10% of the global population [1]. Most individuals have mild symptoms; however, IAV infection during pregnancy poses a substantially increased risk of morbidity and mortality in both mother and infant [2...
