“…In a meta-analysis involving 32 countries, the rotavirus prevalence among children aged 5 years and older and adolescents was found to be relatively low compared to those reported for children under 5 years. 26 In our study, similar data were found in children under 5 years and over 5 years.…”

“…However, it has not been completely understood to what extent rotavirus affects this population. 26 In a surveillance study of acute diarrhea, patients of all ages in China between 2009 and 2018, rotavirus and adenovirus peaked in 2-3 years of age, and in another study conducted in Turkey, rotavirus peaked in 1-2 years and adenovirus in 0-1 years. 14,20 In our study, where populations of all ages were evaluated, positivity for rotavirus verified in the first three age groups studied (0-<13 years) was practically the same.…”

“…Children aged 5 and older and adults are also sensitive to rotavirus. However, it has not been completely understood to what extent rotavirus affects this population 26 . In a surveillance study of acute diarrhea, patients of all ages in China between 2009 and 2018, rotavirus and adenovirus peaked in 2–3 years of age, and in another study conducted in Turkey, rotavirus peaked in 1–2 years and adenovirus in 0–1 years 14,20 .…”

This study aims to determine retrospectively the prevalence of rotavirus and enteric adenovirus in patients with gastroenteritis symptoms and the distribution of pathogens by gender, age, seasons, and years. The stool samples sent to Pamukkale University Healthcare Research and Practice Hospital's Medical Microbiology laboratory between January 2017 and December 2021 were evaluated for rotavirus/adenovirus antigen positivity. Rotavirus and adenovirus antigens were studied with the Rotavirus-Adenovirus Combo Rapid Cassette Test (Acro Biotech) kit. Rotavirus was detected in 683 (8.2%) of the 8315 stool samples evaluated, and 180 (2.2%) samples were positive for adenovirus. Coinfection was detected in 21 (0.25%) samples. Rotavirus was found at the highest rate in 2019 (p = 0.001). The adenovirus was detected in 2020 at a lower rate than in other years (p = 0.0001).The rotavirus was observed at a higher rate in 0-<3, 3-<6, and 6-<13 age groups and adenovirus was detected at a higher rate in 3-<6 and 6-<13 age groups compared to other age groups (p = 0.001, p = 0.003, respectively). The highest rate of incidence of the rotavirus was found in spring and adenovirus in winter. In the etiology of gastroenteritis, especially in children, adenovirus and rotavirus should not be ignored in winter and spring. The prevalence of rotavirus was observed to have

“…Also, the difference in these results can be due to different diagnosis RV tests, such as ELISA (3,(10)(11)(12)(13), multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (6), and rapid stool antigen immune-chromatographic (ICT) test (1). The RV-PCR seems to be 16 times more sensitive than ELISA (14) and can mask true prevalence changes (15). However, in the re- viewed researchers in the current study, the results of PCR were observed to be lower than those of ELISA, which is inconsistent with the studies by Arakaki et al ( 15) and Kim and Kim (14).…”

Background: Rotavirus (RV) is associated with diarrhea in children under 5 years old. It leads to severe dehydration. RV infection is the third cause of hospitalization and death in children under 5 years old. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the frequency of RV infection in hospitalized children under 5 years old with diarrhea during 2021-2022. Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, a total of 190 stool samples from hospitalized children with diarrhea were collected in Mofid Children’s Hospital in Tehran from December 2020 to March 2021. RV infection was detected by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Chi-square tests were performed to determine the difference in age and gender group, time, and symptoms. Results: The overall prevalence of RV infection was 28.5% and higher in boys (68.5%), children aged ≤ 12 months (44.4%), and children with mixed feeding (33.3%); it is more common in winter. Vomiting (79.6%), fever (87.03%), and non-exudative stool (88.8%) were observed in most children with RV, but there were no significant differences in children with and without RV. Conclusions: Due to the prevalence of RV among children under 5 years of age, establishing a national RV registration system and control programs, like vaccination, seems to be considered.

“…Meta-analysis is a kind of literature quality evaluation method, which can confirm some specific research results and evaluate the value of clinical studies by searching through relevant literature that meets the requirements and integrates the search results. 21 This study conducted a meta-analysis on the effect of TCM on AIDS diarrhea; the results showed that TCM was effective in the treatment of AIDS and diarrhea, and could improve the TCM syndrome scores of patients without increasing the risk of adverse reactions. Analysis of possible reasons: TCM treatment of AIDS and diarrhea is conducted based on the theory of TCM syndrome differentiation, overall adjustment, focusing on the person's body, and the combination of TCM internal and external treatment, which can all achieve good results.…”

Objective The aim of the study is to systematically evaluate the effect of Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea. Methods The computer system was used to comprehensively search database of Wanfang (WF), VIP, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) for relevant literature on the application effect of Chinese medicine in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea. The retrieval time was set from January 1, 2010 to August 15, 2021. The documents that did not meet the inclusion criteria were eliminated, and the quality of the qualified literature was evaluated according to the improved Jadad scoring standard. The main outcome indicators were entered into the literature, and Review Manager 5.0 software was used for meta-analysis. Results Eight eligible articles were included, a total of 536 cases of AIDS diarrhea patients were included. All eight eligible articles observed the clinical efficacy of TCM in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea, among which four observed the TCM syndrome changes in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea, and four observed adverse reactions of TCM in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea. All articles were extracted for valid data. After entering all the main observation index data, the results of meta-analysis showed that the effect of TCM in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea was better, the difference was statistically significant [MD = 2.92, 95% CI (1.81, 4.70), p <0.001]; TCM in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea was more conducive to improving the TCM syndrome scores of patients, the difference was statistically significant [MD = −2.55, 95% CI (−3.37, −1.73), p< 0.001]; the adverse effects of TCM in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea were mild, and the difference was statistically significant [MD = 1.70, 95% CI (0.48, 5.97), p = 0.41]. Conclusion The effect of TCM in the treatment of AIDS diarrhea patients is remarkable, which can effectively improve the TCM symptom scores of patients without increasing the incidence of adverse reactions.
