Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni was recovered as the sole bacterial pathogen from 31% of 0- to 8-month-old children with acute gastroenteritis and from 5% of asymptomatic children (P less than 0.05). In children 8 to 24 months old, the respective recovery rates were 38 and 40%. With the exception of one case of simultaneous bacteremia, the clinical course of the symptomatic infection was benign and rarely lasted more than a week. The isolates were sensitive to most commonly used antibiotics. Several isolates shared antigenic determinants with C. fetus subsp. intestinalis. A bacteriophage specific for C. fetus subsp. jejuni lysed 73% of the strains. Several phage-resistant isolates carried a phage that lysed the stock strain of C. fetus subsp. jejuni (NADC 917).
胎儿弯曲菌空肠亚种是从31%的0至8个月大患有急性肠胃炎的儿童以及5%无症状儿童中分离出的唯一细菌病原体（P<0.05）。在8至24个月大的儿童中，相应的分离率分别为38%和40%。除1例同时发生菌血症外，有症状感染的临床病程是良性的，很少持续超过一周。分离株对大多数常用抗生素敏感。一些分离株与胎儿弯曲菌肠道亚种有共同的抗原决定簇。一种对胎儿弯曲菌空肠亚种特异的噬菌体可裂解73%的菌株。几种抗噬菌体分离株携带一种可裂解胎儿弯曲菌空肠亚种（NADC 917）标准菌株的噬菌体。
