diarrhea caused by rotavirus in children less than 5 years of age in hanoi, vietnam.group a rotaviruses are the major cause of diarrhea in young children worldwide. from march 2001 to april 2002, 836 children less than 5 years of age were investigated in hanoi, vietnam. this included 587 children with diarrhea and 249 age-matched controls. group a rotavirus was identified in 46.7% of the children with diarrhea and 3.6% of the controls, which was a significant difference. within the diarrhea group, the highest prevalence was seen in children from 13 to 24 months of age, and the ...200415583308
antibiotic resistance in diarrheagenic escherichia coli and shigella strains isolated from children in hanoi, vietnam.the mics for 162 diarrheagenic escherichia coli strains and 28 shigella strains were determined on the basis of nccls guidelines. more than 75% of the strains were resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol (53.6% of shigella strains), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. multiresistance was detected in 89.5% of e. coli strains and 78.6% of shigella strains.200515673777
etiology and epidemiology of diarrhea in children in hanoi, vietnam.this paper provides a preliminary picture of diarrhea with regards to etiology, clinical symptoms, and some related epidemiologic factors in children less than five years of age living in hanoi, vietnam.200616458564
plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinant qnrs in enterobacter cloacae.pcr was used to investigate the occurrence of the plasmid-encoded quinolone resistance determinants qnra and qnrs among diarrhoeagenic enterobacterial isolates recovered from hanoi, vietnam, during the period march 2001 to april 2002. in total, 162 escherichia coli isolates, 28 shigella isolates and three enterobacter cloacae isolates were negative for qnra, while a single ent. cloacae isolate harboured a 50-kb qnrs-positive conjugative plasmid. cloning and sequencing identified a qnrs gene brac ...200616961640
rotavirus disease in young children from hanoi, vietnam.pathogen prevalences and antimicrobial susceptibilities are essential for the rational development of preventive strategies for diarrheal diseases, but little recent information from vietnam is available. we prospectively studied the prevalence of enteric pathogens in children less than 5 years of age with acute diarrhea and in nondiarrhea controls in a city hospital in hanoi, vietnam for 1 year.200717414396
diarrhoeagenic escherichia coli and other causes of childhood diarrhoea: a case-control study in children living in a wastewater-use area in hanoi, vietnam.a case-control study was conducted to identify the aetiology of diarrhoeal diseases in pre-school children in a suburban area of hanoi where the use of untreated wastewater in agriculture and aquaculture is a common practice. stool specimens and clinical information were collected from 111 pairs of children with diarrhoea and healthy controls. a total of 73 cases (66 %) and 41 controls (36 %) had an enteric pathogen. the pathogens most often associated with diarrhoea were rotavirus (17 % of case ...200717644717
diarrheagenic escherichia coli and shigella strains isolated from children in a hospital case-control study in hanoi, vietnam.this case-control study detected and characterized shigella and diarrheagenic escherichia coli (dec) types among vietnamese children less than 5 years old. in 249 children with diarrhea and 124 controls, shigella spp. was an important cause of diarrhea (p < 0.05). we used multiplex pcr and dna probes to detect enteroinvasive e. coli (eiec), enteroaggregative e. coli (eaggec), enteropathogenic e. coli (epec), attaching and effacing e. coli (a/eec), verocytotoxin-producing e. coli (vtec), and ente ...200818174300
