Journal ArticleDOI
Co-existence of multiple strains of two novel porcine bocaviruses in the same pig, a previously undescribed phenomenon in members of the family Parvoviridae, and evidence for inter- and intra-host genetic diversity and recombination.
Susanna K. P. Lau,Patrick C. Y. Woo,Cyril C. Y. Yip,Kenneth S. M. Li,Clara T. Y. Fu,Yi Huang,Kwok-Hung Chan,Kwok-Yung Yuen +7 more
TL;DR: This is the first report describing marked sequence diversity and the co-existence of two viruses of the family Parvoviridae within the same host, which may have originated from and, in turn, facilitated recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Significance of Alimentary Tract Microbes in Bone Marrow Transplant Recipients
Kwok-Yung Yuen,Patrick C. Y. Woo,Raymond Liang,Edmund K. W. Chiu,FE Chen,Samson S. Y. Wong,Yu-Lung Lau,Sau-yin Ha,J. S. Malik Peiris,Hong Siau,Tai-Kwong Chan +10 more
TL;DR: Overall, only 28% of patients with alimentary tract symptoms/syndrome had specific pathogens isolated from clinical specimens, and no significant difference in mortality was observed between patients with and without C. difficile isolated in stool.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete Genome Sequence of Staphylococcus lugdunensis Strain HKU09-01
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of this medically important bacterium, which is a significant cause of catheter-related bacteremia and also causes serious infections in previously healthy individuals, is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing of an Enterobacteriaceae species with ambiguous biochemical profile from a renal transplant recipient
TL;DR: In this study, an Enterobacteriaceae was isolated in pure growth from the mid-stream urine of a 67-year old renal transplant recipient with urinary tract infection, indicating that the isolate most closely resembled a strain of E. cloacae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concurrent comparison of epidemiology, clinical presentation and outcome between adult patients suffering from the pandemic influenza A (H1N1) 2009 virus and the seasonal influenza A virus infection.
Kelvin K. W. To,Samson S. Y. Wong,Iris W. S. Li,Ivan Hung,Herman Tse,Patrick C. Y. Woo,Kwok-Hung Chan,Kwok-Yung Yuen +7 more
TL;DR: Since both seasonal and pandemic influenza can lead to significant morbidity and mortality, the impact of pre-existing seasonal influenza should not be underestimated during the pandemic period.
