In spite of very significant decreasing trends in the last three decades, childhood mortality remains unacceptably high globally, with 5.6 million children dying every year before reaching their 5th birthday, the majority of which in low and middle-income countries (LMIC) [1]. Diarrheal diseases still re...

Rotavirus (RV) is an important enteric pathogen in the young of many mammalian and avian species. The virus belongs to the Reoviridae family and contains an 11-segmented double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) genome. The dsRNA segments encode six structural (VP1–4, 6 and 7) and six non-structural (NSP1–5/6) pro...

The Global Enteric Multicenter Study enrolled children with moderate-to-severe diarrhea (MSD) and less-severe diarrhea (LSD) between December 2007 and November 2012. One to three controls for MSD cases and one per LSD case were enrolled and matched by age, sex, and neighborhood. All children were tested ...
Em Maio de 2014 foi implementada pelo INS, uma vigilância nacional de diarreia
aguda (ViNaDiA) cujo foco era a vigilância para o rotavírus. Embora o Norovírus (NoV) seja
uma importante causa de diarreia em crianças e adultos, existem poucos estudos publicados em
Moçambique sobre o papel d...
As Infecções por Cryptosporidium spp e Cystoisospora belli são causas
importantes de diarréia em pacientes com VIH (Vírus de Imunodeficiência humana). No entanto,
informações relativas a estes dois parasitas são escassas em muitos países africanos, incluindo
Moçambique.

Diarrheal diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Africa. Although
research documents the magnitude and pattern of diarrheal diseases are associated with weather in particular locations, there is limited quantification of this association in sub-Saharan Africa and no studies conducted ...
