Rotavirus infection is commonly found in young infants admitted to hospital with gastroenteritis. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for virus diagnosis is described and the results of testing stool specimens from 497 children with gastroenteritis, 192 neonates and 247 asymptomatic six month old infants are presented. Rotavirus infection was found in 45 percent of all children with gastroenteritis but only in 4.7 percent of neonates and 2 percent of asymptomatic infants. These results do not support the proposal that children in our community have a high incidence of subclinical infections.
轮状病毒感染常见于因肠胃炎入院的幼儿。本文描述了一种用于病毒诊断的酶联免疫吸附测定法（ELISA），并展示了对497名肠胃炎患儿、192名新生儿和247名无症状的6个月大婴儿的粪便样本检测结果。在所有肠胃炎患儿中，45%检测出轮状病毒感染，但新生儿中仅4.7%，无症状婴儿中仅2%检测出该病毒感染。这些结果并不支持我们社区儿童亚临床感染发病率高的观点。
