“…Diarrheic diseases, although presenting lower and more stable percentages, are still an important public health problem. Studies have shown that cases of acute, serious diarrhea persist and are associated with one-third of childhood hospitalizations and an estimated 600,000 deaths per year in children worldwide 3,8,9 .…”

“…Respiratory symptoms and systemic inflammation parameters differed between the different pathogens. (12) A study comparing the proportion of hospitalizations for diarrhea attributable to rotavirus found increased hospitalization rates in recent years, 21% between 1986 and 1999, 39% between 2000 and 2004, both in developed and developing countries. (13) After this period, there was a reduction in hospitalization rates compared to other causes of diarrhea, suggesting the importance of oral human rotavirus vaccine in reducing hospitalization rates.…”

Objective: To evaluate the risk of hospitalization for acute diarrhea in children under five,in the period of ten years before and after the oral rotavirus vaccine. Methods: Eco-descriptive-analyticstudy of the rates of hospitalization for acute diarrhea. We used hospitalization rate and the Relative Variation Rate to quantify the difference between the median in the years pre-andpostvaccination. We used logistic regression, odds ratio and attributablerisk to assess for the proportion of cases that could be avoided if exposure was avoided. Results: During the study period, the hospitalization rate was 117.41 per 10,000 children. In the prevaccination period, the median rate of hospitalization was 124.2/10,000 children. After the introduction of the vaccine, hospitalization rates were lower when compared to the median of the pre-vaccination years. Conclusion: There was a reduction in the hospitalization rates for acute diarrhea, thereby suggesting that the use of the vaccine and other associated factors can reduce the number of cases. ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar o risco de hospitalização por diarreias agudas em crianças menores de cinco anos no período de dez anos, antes e depois da vacina oral do rotavírus. Métodos: Estudo ecológico-descritivo-analítico das taxas de hospitalização por diarreias agudas. Utilizou-se a Taxa de Hospitalização e Taxa de Variação Relativa para quantificar a diferença entre a mediana dos anos pré-vacinais e pós-vacinais. Empregou-se a Regressão Logística, o Odds Ratio e Risco Atribuível para verificar a proporção de casos que poderiam ser evitados se a exposição fosse afastada. Resultados: No período estudado a taxa de hospitalização foi de 117,41 por 10.000 crianças. Observouse que, no período pré-vacinal, a mediana da taxa de hospitalização foi de 124,2/10.000 crianças. Após a introdução da vacina, as taxas de hospitalização foram menores quando comparadas à mediana dos anos pré-vacinal. Conclusão: Houve redução nas taxas de hospitalização por diarreias agudas, sugerindo que o uso da vacina e outros fatores associados podem reduzir os casos.

“…Çalışmamızda, tüm gaita örneklerinin % 13'ünde viral antijen tespit edilmiştir. Bu değer, literature bakıldığında değişik yayın-larda % 31.5-% 59 arasında değişmekte-dir (8,24,25) . Bu farkın özellikle, çalışmanın yapıldığı gruplardaki hasta sayısından ve aşılama oranlarından kaynaklandığını düşünmekteyiz.…”

ÖZET Anahtar sözcükler: adenovirus, akut gastroenterit, norovirus, rotavirus SUMMARY Adenovirus, Norovirus and Rotavirus in Etiology of Children with Acute Gastroenteritis Applying to Istanbul American HospitalThe most common etiologic agents of gastroenteritis in children are rotavirus, norovirus, astrovirus and adenovirus. In the light of the opinion of etiological changes in the frequency of etiology after rotavirus vaccination, cases with viral gastroenteritis in our region and country in our hospital were evaluated. The analyses of the fresh stool of the study group (474 patients) revealed rotavirus in 17 (3.6 %), adenovirus in 18 (3.8 %) and, norovirus in 27 (5.7 %)
