From: Inflammatory responses to acute pneumovirus infection in neonatal mice
Acute PVM infection results diminished growth. Mice were inoculated with 10 μL/200 pfu PVM J3666 (filled symbols) or phosphate buffered-saline control (open symbols) at 1, 2, 3, or 4 weeks of age as shown. Weight was evaluated at day 0 and at day 7; percent (%) change was measured as [(weight day 7 - weight day 0) × 100/weight day 0.]. Net weight loss was observed in some PVM-infected weanling mice (7 of 44); statistical significance, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.005; n = 19 - 31 mice per group.
