METHODS: Data and specimens from prospective observational clinical studies conducted between 1997 and 2010 were used. In Viet Nam, since 2005, various serotypes of EV A, most commonly enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16), CV-A10, and CV-A6 have been associated with outbreaks of HFMD [12, 13] and EVs have also been frequently detected in aetiological studies of CNS and respiratory infections [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] . Here we report the clinical associations and serotyping results of EVs that were previously detected in our studies of CNS and respiratory infections in southern and central Viet Nam between 1997 and 2010. Our study illustrates the circulation of diverse enterovirus serotypes belonging to four species (A-D), and their association with respiratory and CNS infections in Viet Nam. These data are important for patient management, laboratory diagnostics and future outbreak response. ./cache/cord-320617-ucm7wx8b.txt ./txt/cord-320617-ucm7wx8b.txt
