“…This study has found that vaccinated children indwelling with three or more fellow children in the same house are significantly more likely to acquire Rotavirus infection compared to those indwelling with less than three fellow children. This finding is similar to the study done in Chiapas, Mexico in which children indwelling in a house with seven or more people were significantly more likely to acquire Rotavirus infection [19]. This is attributed by the fact that the mode of spread of Rotavirus infection is largely person-to-person transmission, hence as the number of children increases in the house likewise transmission rate increases.…”

Introduction: Rotavirus infection is a leading cause of severe diarrhea culminating to dehydration among children under five years of age. Understanding trends and factors that could assist towards devising effective preventive strategies of Rotavirus infection beyond vaccination is crucial. Objectives: This study was done in an attempt to determine the prevalence and associated factors of Rotavirus infection among vaccinated children aged between 6 weeks and 24 months admitted with acute diarrhea Mwanza, Tanzania. Material and Methods: Across sectional study involving vaccinated children aged 6 weeks to 24 months was conducted in three selected hospitals from July 2017 to January 2018. Socio-demographic and other relevant clinical information were collected using a standardized data collection tool adopted from WHO Rotavirus surveillance tool. Rotavirus infection from the stool was detected using an enzyme immunoassay. Data were analyzed using STATA version 13. Results: A total of 301 vaccinated children with acute diarrhea with a median age of 12 [IQR: 8-17] months were enrolled. Nine (3.0%) and 292 (97.

“…Differences were noted in studies by Badani et al [19] from Yemen in 2014, Sanchez-Uribe et al [24], 2014 from Mexico who found G2P [4] and G9P [4]. This difference is due to the fact that both studies were able to do P genotyping unlike our study hence were able to report combination genotypes that existed in their respective region.…”

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.

“…In infants aged 0–6 months, the protective effect is stronger than in infants aged 7–12 months [ 20 ]. A study in Mexico by Sánchez-Uribe et al in children aged <36 months with rotavirus diarrhea showed that exclusively breastfed infants have a positive significant association with reduced risk of diarrhea caused by rotavirus ( p < 0.01) [ 21 ]. A study in the United States by Dennehy et al that aimed to determine the risk factors for the occurrence of rotavirus diarrhea in hospital among children aged <59 months showed a protective effect in infants aged <6 months who are exclusively breastfed in terms of the incidence of rotavirus diarrhea leading to hospitalization [ 22 ].…”

Background. Rotavirus is the leading cause of severe acute diarrhea in children. Infants who are exclusively breastfed develop fewer infections and have less severe illnesses. This study aimed to determine association between severe dehydration in rotavirus diarrhea and exclusive breastfeeding. Methods. This is a cross-sectional study in infants ≤ 6 months old with acute diarrhea in Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia. Results. From 134 infants ≤ 6 months old with acute diarrhea enrolled from April 2009 to December 2012, there were 88 (65.6%) boys and 46 (34.4%) girls in this study. Rotavirus was detected in 60 (44.8 %), 32 (53.3%) of whom were exclusively breastfed. From rotavirus positive subjects, severe dehydration occurred in 4 (12.6%) exclusively breastfed infants and 6 (21.5%) not exclusively breastfed infants. No significant association was found between severe dehydration and exclusive breastfeeding (p = 0.491) in rotavirus diarrhea. Conclusions. In rotavirus diarrhea, there was no significant association between exclusive breastfeeding and severe dehydration.
