Poliomyelitis Katie Hunold BIO 62 http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/12_03/polioDM_468x707.jpg
Caused by poliovirus • Destroys nervous system paralysis http://www.usaid.gov/our_work/global_health/mch/ch/news/photogallery/polio/images/polio01.jpg http://media-2.web.britannica.com/ebmedia/24 /82624-004-8C092B0B.jpg (http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/UVAHealth/peds_infectious/polio.cfm)
Poliovirus • Subgroup: Enterovirus • gastrointestinal tract • Acidic pH http://www.npspindia.org/images/Polio-Virus.jpg • (http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/misc/polio.pdf)
Poliovirus • Family: Picornavirus • Small • RNA-genome http://www.npspindia.org/images/Polio-Virus.jpg • (http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/misc/polio.pdf)
PoliovirusTransmission • Reservoir: humans only http://www.humanbody3d.com/human3dbody.jpg (http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/misc/polio.pdf)

Polio Infection: Three Types • Subclinical (inapparent, abortive) infection • Nonparalytic poliomyelitis • Paralytic poliomyelitis http://data2.archives.ca/e/e101/e002505051.jpg (http://www.umm.edu/ency/article/001402.htm)
Subclinical Infection • Up to 95% of infections • May or may not have symptoms • 72 hours or less http://beccamcutie.wikispaces.com/file/view/happy-face.gif (http://www.umm.edu/ency/article/001402.htm) (http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/misc/polio.pdf)
Nonparalytic poliomyelitis • 5% of infections • Usually complete recovery in 1-2 weeks (http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/misc/polio.pdf) (http://www.umm.edu/ency/article/001402.htm) http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/news/archives/headache.jpg
Paralytic poliomyelitis • 1%-2% of infections • Can still return to normal functions • Many left with weakness or paralysis http://www.brown.edu/Courses/Bio_160/Projects1999/polio/images/walkingaids.jpg (http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/misc/polio.pdf)
Paralytic poliomyelitis • Three types: • Spinal polio • Bulbar polio • Bulbospinal polio http://www.taf.org/graphics/spine.gif
Spinal Polio • 79% of paralytic cases (1969-1979) www.ipvrc.org/polio.htm
Bulbar Polio • 2% of paralytic cases • Muscle weakness http://www.dinf.ne.jp/doc/english/global/david/dwe002/dwe002g/dwe00209g01.gif
Bulbospinal Polio • 19% of paralytic cases (1969-1979) • Combination of spinal and bulbar polio http://www.idph.state.ia.us/common/images/125/nurse_child_polio_1960.jpg http://www.reiseklinikken.no/Webbilder/polio.jpg
