Implication

Supports regional calicivirus surveillance; leaves open broader applicability and intervention needs.

Structured PICO

P
Population
6,226 fecal samples from individuals with gastroenteritis collected from 1980 to 1996 in Victoria, New South Wales, and Tasmania, Australia.
O
Outcome
Detection of small round-structured viruses (SRSVs) and classical human caliciviruses (ClHuCVs)

This study characterizes the epidemiology and genetic diversity of caliciviruses causing gastroenteritis in Southeastern Australia over a 16-year period.
