Cryptosporidium was detected in 2 (1.5%) out of 132 children under 2 years with acute diarrhea; in 2 (3.2%) out of 63 patients under 2 years with persistent diarrhea; in 1 (3.9%) out of 26 malnourished patients younger than 2 years with an episode of acute diarrhea and in 7 (1.4%) out of 516 pediatric ambulatory patients who consulted for acute or chronic diarrhea or recurrent abdominal pain. The clinical histories of the 5 infants with cryptosporidiosis who belonged to the first 3 studies, are presented. All they had prolonged diarrhea (more than 15 days long), and one of them showed low IgG and IgA serum concentrations, but normal proportions of T lymphocyte populations.
在132名2岁以下急性腹泻儿童中，检测到2例（1.5%）隐孢子虫感染；在63名2岁以下持续性腹泻患者中，检测到2例（3.2%）；在26名2岁以下患有急性腹泻发作的营养不良患者中，检测到1例（3.9%）；在516名因急性或慢性腹泻或反复腹痛前来就诊的儿科门诊患者中，检测到7例（1.4%）。介绍了前三项研究中5例患有隐孢子虫病婴儿的临床病史。他们均有长期腹泻（超过15天），其中1例血清IgG和IgA浓度较低，但T淋巴细胞群比例正常。
