Abstract
Of 4205 individuals living in a Puerto Rican community, 47% developed S. sonnei dysentery. Questionnaires and clinical evaluations of 1970 patients and the remaining 2235 unaffected residents disclosed no cases of Reiter''s syndrome (RS). S. sonnei may not be arthritogenic.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
