Acute Infantile Gastroenteritis associated with human enteric viruses in Tunisia.
Journal of clinical microbiology, 2008Co-Authors: Khira Sdiri-loulizi, Hakima Gharbi-khelifi, Alexis De Rougemont, S. Chouchane, Nabil Sakly, Katia Ambert-balay, Mouna Hassine, Mohamed Neji Guediche, Mahjoub Aouni, Pierre PothierAbstract: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 observed in 234 samples, and mixed infections were found in 42 samples. In terms of frequency, rotavirus and norovirus were detected in 22.5 and 17.4% of the samples, respectively, followed by astrovirus (4.1%), Aichi virus (3.5%), adenovirus types 40 and 41 (2.7%), and sapovirus (1.0%). The seasonal distribution of viral Gastroenteritis showed a winter peak but also an unusual peak from May to September. The severity of the diarrhea was evaluated for hospitalized infants. No significant differences were observed between rotavirus and norovirus infections with regard to the incidence and the clinical severity of the disease, especially in dehydration.

prevalence of group a rotavirus human calicivirus astrovirus and adenovirus type 40 and 41 infections among children with acute Gastroenteritis in dijon france
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1999Co-Authors: Fabienne Bon, Pierre Pothier, P Fascia, M Dauvergne, D Tenenbaum, H Planson, A M Petion, Evelyne KohliAbstract:Group A rotaviruses, human caliciviruses, astroviruses, and adenovirus types 40 and 41 were detected by enzyme immunoassay or reverse transcription-PCR in 61, 14, 6, and 3% of stool specimens from 414 children consulting for Gastroenteritis between 1995 and 1998. These data highlight the importance of caliciviruses in Infantile Gastroenteritis. Among these, Norwalk-like viruses belonging to genogroup II were predominant.

Recognition of the GM3 ganglioside glycan by Rhesus rotavirus particles.
Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English), 2011Co-Authors: Thomas Haselhorst, Timm Fiebig, Jeffrey Clifford Dyason, Fiona E. Fleming, Helen Blanchard, Barbara S. Coulson, Mark Von ItzsteinAbstract:Rotaviruses are a major cause of severe Infantile Gastroenteritis in humans and animals worldwide, producing a childhood mortality exceeding 650 000 annually.[1] Mapping host cell glycan-virus interactions to define a viral glycointeractome is invaluable in providing new directions for the discovery of novel broad-spectrum drugs and vaccines. In that context we have recently reported the first NMR-based structural analysis of the interaction of GD1a (1) and GM1 (2) ganglioside glycans with recombinantly expressed rotaviral surface lectin VP8* from two distinct rotavirus strains.[2]

Prevalence and Molecular Genotyping of Group A Rotaviruses in Iranian Children
Indian Journal of Virology, 2012Co-Authors: Mohammad Kargar, Amin Reza AkbarizadehAbstract:Rotavirus is the leading cause of acute Gastroenteritis in worldwide young children. Effective vaccines to prevent rotavirus infection are currently available, although their clinical use is still limited, and rotavirus still causes many episodes of Infantile Gastroenteritis, mainly during the winter season. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of rotavirus infection in children aged
