Rotavirus gastroenteritis is a major cause of death among children under 5 years globally. A rotavirus gastroenteritis surveillance program started in October 2011 in the Central African Republic (CAR) with the Surveillance Epidémiologique en Afrique Centrale (SURVAC) project. We present here genotyping results showing the emergence of G9 and G12 genotypes in Central African Republic.
Among 222 children hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis who had a stool sample collected at the sentinel site, Complexe Pédiatrique de Bangui (CPB), Bangui, Central African Republic, 100 (45%) were positive for rotavirus between January 2014 and February 2016. During this period the most common rotavirus strains were G1P[8] (37%), G12P[6] (27%) and G9P[8] (18%).
轮状病毒肠胃炎是全球5岁以下儿童死亡的主要原因。2011年10月,随着中非共和国(CAR)的中非流行病学监测(SURVAC)项目启动了轮状病毒肠胃炎监测计划。我们在此展示基因分型结果,显示中非共和国出现了G9和G12基因型。
在中非共和国班吉的定点机构班吉儿科综合医院(CPB),对222名因急性肠胃炎住院且采集了粪便样本的儿童进行检测,2014年1月至2016年2月期间,100名(45%)轮状病毒检测呈阳性。在此期间,最常见的轮状病毒株是G1P[8](37%)、G12P[6](27%)和G9P[8](18%)。
