Abstract excerpt
Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) and encephalomyelitis were two major clinical manifestations during the 1998 enterovirus 71 (EV71) epidemic in Taiwan. To investigate whether different clinical patterns were caused by alterations in EV71 genomes, the complete nucleotide sequences of four EV71 strains associated with HFMD or encephalomyelitis were compared. Among these viral strains, two or three nucleotide...
