Abstract
PROFILE NILE ROMANIA (Abstract): Meningitis is a disease with global presence that represents a worldwide issue, with the West Nile Virus as an etiological factor. The severity of viral meningitis depends on different factors such as age, immune system and etiological agents. Aim: The aim of the study was to study the frequency of West Nile Virus meningitis and to bring a contribution to the existing knowledge of the WNV distribution on adult individuals in Romania. Results : They showed a complete etiological and symptomatic picture for WNV meningitis with the main cause being the climatic changes experienced for the sudden appearance of an increased number of WNV infections. Conclusions : This retrospective study may constitute a foundation for a plan to prevent a possible epidemic of meningitis caused by the West Nile virus.
