Journal Title: Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Disease - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The atypical influenza infection is an important concern in modern medicine. Due to the trend of pandemic outbreak of new emerging atypical influenza, the researching on it is very important. In clinical genetics, the study on the genetic factors underlying the susceptibility and resistance to atypical influenza infection is very interesting. In this short article, the author focused and discussed on human genetic polymorphism and atypical influenza infection.
