Abstract
To study the epidemiologic and clinical features of rotavirus infections, we enrolled 98 families in a prospective study of diarrhea in households with newborn children. Families were seen at three-month intervals and whenever ill. The mean follow-up period was 16.4 months. Rotavirus infections were documented by electron microscopy of feces, indirect fluorescent-antibody assays in serum or both.This publication has 29 references indexed in Scilit:
