Risk Factors for Norovirus, Sapporo-like Virus, and Group A Rotavirus Gastroenteritis [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
Viral pathogens are the most common causes of gastroenteritis in the community. To identify modes of transmission and opportunities for prevention, a case-control study was conducted and risk factors for gastroenteritis attributable to norovirus (NV ...

Norovirus in Pediatric Gastroenteritis: A Study in Argentine Hospitals Before and After the Introduction of Universal Rotavirus Vaccination [PDF]

Vaccines
Norovirus (NoV) is a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in young children worldwide. Following the introduction of universal rotavirus (RVA) vaccination in Argentina in 2015, the role of NoV in pediatric AGE warrants evaluation.

Differentiation between Wild-Type Group A Rotaviruses and Vaccine Strains in Cases of Suspected Horizontal Transmission and Adverse Events Following Vaccination

Viruses, 2022
Human group A rotaviruses (RVA) are important enteric pathogens, as they are a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in children worldwide. Since 2013, the German Standing Committee on vaccination recommended the routine rotavirus vaccination for ...

Whole gene analysis of a genotype G29P[6] human rotavirus strain identified in Central African Republic

BMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective Rotavirus A (RVA) remains the main causative agent of gastroenteritis in young children and the young of many mammalian and avian species. In this study we describe a RVA strain detected from a 6-month-old child from Central African Republic ...

Presence and Diversity of Different Enteric Viruses in Wild Norway Rats (Rattus norvegicus)

Viruses, 2021
Rodents are common reservoirs for numerous zoonotic pathogens, but knowledge about diversity of pathogens in rodents is still limited. Here, we investigated the occurrence and genetic diversity of enteric viruses in 51 Norway rats collected in three ...

Diversity of human astroviruses in Germany 2018 and 2019

Virology Journal, 2022
Aim of this study was to investigate the molecular diversity of human astroviruses (HAstV) in Germany. A follow-up study was performed with human stool samples collected in 2018–2019, which were genotyped retrospectively.

Identification of a Putative Novel Genotype of Avian Hepatitis E Virus from Apparently Healthy Chickens in Southwestern Nigeria

Viruses, 2021
Avian hepatitis E virus (aHEV) is the major etiological agent of hepatitis-splenomegaly syndrome (HSS), big liver and spleen disease (BLSD), and hepatic rupture hemorrhage syndrome (HRHS) in chickens.

Norovirus passive surveillance as an alternative strategy for genetic diversity assessment in developing countries

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2021
In developing countries, the acute gastroenteritis outbreaks submitted for viral testing are limited due to deficient surveillance programs. The aim of this study was to analyze a passive surveillance strategy for monitoring the molecular epidemiology of

Molecular characterisation of a rabbit Hepatitis E Virus strain detected in a chronically HEV-infected individual from Germany

One Health, 2023
In immunocompromised individuals persisting viremia frequently leads to a chronic hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection. Zoonotic transmission of HEV from pigs and wild boar to humans is proven and sporadic infections with rabbit HEV (raHEV) have recently ...
