Implication

Rotavirus detection in adults warrants inclusion in gastroenteritis evaluation; leaves open need for longitudinal genotype surveillance in China.

Structured PICO

P
Population
2,214 patients (1,126 children and 1,088 adults) with diarrheal diseases in Wuhan, China
O
Outcome
Prevalence and phylogenetic relatedness of rotavirus genotypes

The study demonstrates the persistence of variant G3 rotaviruses and the spread of global G9 lineages among both children and adults in Wuhan, China.
