1、Gastrointestinal Viruses,Viral Gastroenteritis,It is thought that viruses are responsible for up to 3/4 of all infective diarrhoeas. Viral gastroenteritis is the second most common viral illness after upper respiratory tract infection.In developing countries, viral gastroenteritis is a major killer

2、of infants who are undernourished. Rotaviruses are responsible for half a million deaths a year.Many different types of viruses are found in the gut but only some are associated with gastroenteritis.,Associated with gastroenteritis,RotavirusesAdenoviruses 40 41Caliciviruses嵌杯病毒Norwalk like viruses o

May last up to 6 days (or longer if immunocompromised). The disease is se

9、antibodies), Vaccination is still experimental.,Enteric Adenoviruses,Naked DNA viruses, 75 nm in diameter. Fastidious enteric adenovirus types 40 and 41 are associated with gastroenteritis.Associated with cases of endemic gastroenteritis, usually in young children and neonates. Can cause occasional

10、outbreaks.Possibly the second most common viral cause of gastroenteritis (7-15% of all endemic cases).Similar disease to rotavirusesMost people have antibodies against enteric adenoviruses by the age of three.Diagnosed by electron microscopy or by the detection of adenovirus antigens in faeces by EL

11、ISA or other assays.,Astroviruses,Small RNA viruses, named because of star-shaped surface morphology, 28 nm in diameter.Associated with cases of endemic gastroenteritis, usually in young children and neonates. Can cause occasional outbreaks.Responsible for up to 10% of cases of gastroenteritis.Simil

15、nd other contaminated foods. Aerosol spread possible as well as faecal-oral spread.Also named winter vomiting disease, with vomiting being the prominent symptom, diarrhoea usually mild.Antibodies acquired later in life, in the US, only 50% of adults are seropositive by the age of 50.Diagnosis is mad
