Two hundred ninety-four isolates from 329 patients with acute flaccid paralysis in Cambodia and Vietnam during 1992-1995 were identified as type 1 wild polioviruses. Among these isolates, 85 were selected as geographic representatives and were examined by determining the nucleotide sequences of their genome in the VP1 region. The phylogenic analysis revealed that all of the isolates examined were classified into groups A and B. Isolates belonging to group A had been found only in northern Vietnam until 1993 but not in 1994 and 1995. Group B isolates were located in both northern and southern Vietnam and Cambodia. In 1994 and 1995, however, only group B isolates were found in the Mekong Delta area in southern Vietnam and Cambodia. Isolates of groups A and B were genetically different from strains previously isolated in other Asian countries. One of the two indigenous wild polioviruses still remains to be eliminated in this area.

D011051 Poliomyelitis An acute infectious disease of humans, particularly children, caused by any of three serotypes of human poliovirus (POLIOVIRUS). Usually the infection is limited to the gastrointestinal tract and nasopharynx, and is often asymptomatic. The central nervous system, primarily the spinal cord, may be affected, leading to rapidly progressive paralysis, coarse FASCICULATION and hyporeflexia. Motor neurons are primarily affected. Encephalitis may also occur. The virus replicates in the nervous system, and may cause significant neuronal loss, most notably in the spinal cord. A rare related condition, nonpoliovirus poliomyelitis, may result from infections with nonpoliovirus enteroviruses.

D012150 Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length Variation occurring within a species in the presence or length of DNA fragment generated by a specific endonuclease at a specific site in the genome. Such variations are generated by mutations that create or abolish recognition sites for these enzymes or change the length of the fragment.
