Rotavirus And Adenovirus Frequency In Children With Acute Gastroenteritis
Abstract
ABSTRACT
Objective: Acute gastroenteritis (AGE), which is often caused by bacteria, viruses or parasites that are taken into the body by consuming contaminated food and water, can pose a life threat, especially for children. In this study, it was aimed to determine the distribution of adenovirus and rotavirus frequency according to sex, age and season in children with AGE.
Methods: A sample of 1080 gaita sent from children with AGE to the microbiology laboratory for one year was tested with the Rotavirus Adenovirus antigen kit.
Results:. Among the samples, rotavirus was found in 173 (16%) and adenovirus was positive in 65 (6%). Positivity rates were found to be similar in girls and boys. It has been found that the frequency of rotavirus is higher in the age group of 7-12 months, 13-24 months, 37-48 months, 49-60 months than the other age groups. Adenovirus frequency was found to be similar in all age groups. Rotavirus was more common in winter and spring. Adenovirus was detected more frequently in autumn, winter and spring than in summer.
Conclusion: As a result, both viruses were able to infect children without gender difference. While adenovirus is more common in autumn, spring and winter months, it is thought that rotavirus can be detected at higher rates especially in spring and winter, and children with AGE should especially come to mind in these seasons.
Key words: Adenovirus, age groups, gastroenteritis,
rotavirus, winter season
