“…In comparison to other studies done around the world; our findings were similar to studies done in Mali by Ouermi et al [16] and in Tanzania, Mwanza by Temu et al [17] which found prevalence’s of 22.7 and 20.7%, respectively. This similarity could be attributed to the fact that they had the same study duration and both were carried out in hospital settings.…”

BackgroundDiarrhoea is a main cause of morbidity and mortality in children under 5 responsible for approximately four billion cases and 1.1 million deaths annually. In developing countries, it causes two million deaths each year. The major causative organism responsible is Rotavirus which is responsible for one-third of hospitalizations with approximately 40% mortality.ResultsThe prevalence of Rotavirus infection was 26.4% (73/277). The predominant strain of Rotavirus found was G1 21/73 (53.8%), followed by G8 9/73 (23.1%), G12 5/73 (12.8%), G9 3/73(7.7%) and G4 1/73 (2.6%). All serotypes identified were in children who had completed Rotavirus vaccination except for one who had G8 in whom the vaccine was introduced after they had completed immunizations.ConclusionThe overall prevalence of rotavirus has reduced from 33.2% in 2009 to 26.4% in 2016. We have found G1 to be the predominant serotype as well as other circulating serotypes namely G4, G8, G9 and G12. Despite a reduction in prevalence, there is a need for further rotavirus surveillance in the region.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s13104-017-2883-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…The results of the present study confirm previous observations that G. intestinalis is the first cause of parasitic gastroenteritis in Burkina Faso, followed by E. histolytica/dispar [8][9][10][11]. The overall prevalence of parasitosis (20.8%) in our study is low compared to those found by Karou et al (25.9%) and by Ouermi et al (44.3%) [9,12].…”

Background: Parasitic gastroenteritis is a public health problem in Burkina Faso. However, there is lack of epidemiological data for better management of the disease. This study aimed at identifying the intestinal parasites responsible for diarrhoea and assessing their prevalence among children aged 0 -5 years in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.Methods: This hospital-based cross-sectional study consisted of 317 children aged from 0 -5 years, with gastrointestinal disorders, were recruited at Saint Camille Hospital of Ouagadougou (HOSCO) and Notre Dame de Fatima Reception Centre (CANDAF). Stool samples were collected and processed by direct microscopic examination for the presence of intestinal parasites.Results: An overall prevalence of 20.8% (66/317) of parasitosis was observed. Giardia intestinalis, Entamoeba histolytica/dispar, Entamoeba coli, Trichomonas intestinalis and Hymenolopis nana species were found with respective frequencies of 12.0% (38/317), 4.4% (14/317), 4.4% (14/317) and 3.5% (11/317). Children aged 25 to 60 months were the most affected by parasitosis with 57.6% (38/66) of cases. Approximately 19.0% (60/317) of the patients presented with diarrhoea. Children aged 12 to 24 months were the most affected and represented 65% (39/60) of diarrheal cases. The most etiologic agents of diarrhoea were Giardia intestinalis and Entamoeba histolytica/dispar found in 15% of cases. Conclusions:Parasites were weakly associated with childhood gastroenteritis which mainly affects children under 2 years.

“…In Burkina Faso, previous studies have shown ROTAV to be the main cause of diarrhea in children ( 23 – 26 ), but limited molecular information exists about the circulating genotypes. The first molecular characterization of ROTAVs, which was conducted on samples from 1999, showed a predominance of unusual G2P[6]SGI strains ( 27 ).…”
