Host factors play a significant role in children under five who are the worst sufferers of this widespread and global scourge, both in regard to mortality and morbidity. This study deals with some of the host factors in relation to diarrhoea in a rural population. Age was found to have a definite and direct relationship to diarrhoea. Male children were effected more. Poor hygiene, malnutrition and the receipt of supplementary feeds, were found to have a significant association with childhood diarrhoeas.
宿主因素在五岁以下儿童中起着重要作用，这些儿童是这一广泛的全球性祸害的最严重受害者，无论是在死亡率还是发病率方面。本研究探讨了农村人口中一些与腹泻相关的宿主因素。研究发现年龄与腹泻有明确的直接关系。男童受影响更大。卫生条件差、营养不良以及接受补充喂养，都与儿童腹泻有显著关联。
