“…This trend was similar to that described by Kim et al [9]. Moreover, the detection rate of DB decreased between December and January and tended to increase between June and August, similar to the results of a study described by Lee et al [10] in 2018. Campylobacter spp.…”

“…The detection rate of Clostridioides difficile toxin B was the highest in patients less than 10 years of age and was decreased in patients 10−40 years of age. These results were similar to those of another Korean study [10,13]. Clostridioides perfringens, Clostridioides difficile toxin B, and Aeromonas spp.…”

“…In this study, the incidence and characteristics of DB positivity in Korean patients hospitalized for diarrhea at Dankook University Hospital from 2010 to 2018 were examined. The results of this study showed that the DBpositive rate during the study period was higher than those reported by Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) in 2013 [8], Kim et al in 2013 [9], and Lee et al in 2018 [10]. Among anaerobic DB, Clostridioides perfringens was the most common.…”

“…Adenovirus and astrovirus also are considered important pathogens of viral diarrhea. So, several kinds of diagnostic kits have been created, including immunoassay and molecular methods, to detect 4 important diarrheal viruses, specifically rotavirus, norovirus, adenovirus, and astrovirus, at the same time (8,10). For the study period, the detection rates of adenovirus and astrovirus were only 1.0% each.…”

Rotavirus and norovirus are well-known causes of viral infectious diarrhea. There are few reports about diarrhea caused by other viruses in Korea, although gastroenteritis attributable to other viruses is increasing worldwide. The aims of this study were to detect various causes of viral diarrhea and to investigate their prevalence. A total of 801 fecal specimens submitted to a clinical microbiology laboratory for the detection of diarrhea viruses were included. We sought to detect rotavirus A/B/C, adenovirus, astrovirus, norovirus GI/GII, sapovirus, Aichi virus, human parechovirus, enterovirus, human cosavirus, human bocavirus, and Saffold virus using multiplex RT-PCR. At least one diarrhea virus was detected in 223 (27.8%) fecal specimens. Among them, two viruses were detected in each of 11 specimens. Rotavirus A was most common (17.1%; N=137), followed by norovirus GII (5.0%; N=40), enterovirus (4.2%; N=34), adenovirus (1.0%; N=8), astrovirus (1.0%; N=8), human parechovirus (0.6%; N=5), and human bocavirus (0.2%; N=2). Rotaviruses B and C, norovirus GI, sapovirus, Aichi virus, human cosavirus, and Saffold virus were not found. We confirmed that various diarrheal viruses can be detected in fecal specimens. We need to consider the possibility of viruses other than rotavirus and norovirus being present in cases of diarrhea.
