Implication

Supports enteric adenoviruses as endemic in pediatric gastroenteritis; leaves open need for prospective studies on burden and interventions.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Children with respiratory and enteric adenovirus infections in the Manchester area, including 73 group B adenoviruses from a community outbreak and 3202 stool specimens from children with gastroenteritis.
O
Outcome
Genetic heterogeneity of group B adenoviruses and prevalence/epidemiology of group F enteric adenoviruses.

Enteric adenoviruses are a common, endemic cause of gastroenteritis in children, particularly in babies under 6 months old.
