متن کاملCold weather seasonality of gastroenteritis associated with Norwalk-like viruses.
Norwalk-like viruses (NLVs) are the most common cause of acute nonbacterial gastroenteritis in adults, but little is known about their seasonality.

A search of the scientific literature found eight surveys of gastroenteritis, wh...
متن کاملAcute infantile gastroenteritis associated with human enteric viruses in Tunisia.
This prospective study, conducted from January 2003 to June 2005, investigated the incidence and the clinical role of various enteric viruses responsible for infantile gastroenteritis in 632 Tunisian children presenting in dispensaries (380 children) or hospitalized (252 children) for acute diarrhea. At least one enteric virus was found in each of 276 samples (43.7%). A single pathogen was obse...
متن کاملDiagnosis of noncultivatable gastroenteritis viruses, the human caliciviruses.
Gastroenteritis is one of the most common illnesses of humans, and many different viruses have been causally associated with this disease. Of those enteric viruses that have been established as etiologic agents of gastroenteritis, only the human caliciviruses cannot be cultivated in vitro. The cloning of Norwalk virus and subsequently of other human caliciviruses has led to the development of s...
متن کاملNewly Identified Viruses in Human Gastroenteritis: Pathogens or Not?
I diarrheal diseases remain a common cause of morbidity and mortality especially in children younger than 5 years in low-income and middle-income countries. The most common viral pathogens known to cause acute gastroenteritis in humans are rotavirus A, norovirus, sapovirus, enteric adenoviruses and astrovirus. In addition to these well-established etiologies, a large number of moderate to sever...
