Influenza Virus Genomes from a Pediatric Population in Eastern China, 2024

425 influenza virus genomes sequenced from 490 pediatric specimens collected in Qidong, eastern China, in 2024. The data includes phylogenetic clade assignments, co-circulation patterns of A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B/Victoria lineages, and antiviral susceptibility markers. The dataset was authored by Xiaoqing Sun and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyze influenza co-circulation patterns based on subtype prevalence data.
• Study genetic diversity and lineage evolution based on phylogenetic clade assignments.
• Investigate antiviral resistance markers such as the NA-H275Y mutation in A/H1N1 strains.
• Model seasonal activity peaks based on the temporal distribution of cases.

Strengths

• Includes 425 sequenced genomes from a specific pediatric cohort of 490 specimens.
• Provides specific prevalence percentages for A/H1N1 (45.41%), A/H3N2 (18.35%), and B/Victoria (36.24%).
• Contains detailed genetic analysis, including clade assignments and positively selected sites.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data is limited to a single pediatric hospital in Qidong, eastern China, in 2024, representing a specific geographic and temporal snapshot.
