This study was carried out in 1991 to learn the behavior of enteropathogenic agents causing acute diarrheal diseases in Cuba. 30 children, admitted in hospitals or seen in outpatient services for acute diarrheal diseases, were selected in each province taking into account that they had not received antibiotic or chemotherapy treatments in the previous 72 hours. Feces samples were taken from all patients for virological, bacteriological, and parasitological studies, and results were sent to the Pedro Kourí Institute of Tropical Medicine. Data were processed in DBASE III. Higher positivity indices were attained in the winter months. The causative agents most frequently found were: rotavirus (8.2%); Entamoeba histolytica (6.1%); and Salmonella (4.2%). Escherichia coli, Campylobacter, Shigella and rotavirus showed higher indices in winter. Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonnei predominated. Salmonella serogroups D, B, and C, and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli 0119 and 026 subsets were the most frequently found.
这项研究于1991年开展，旨在了解古巴引起急性腹泻病的肠道病原体的情况。每个省份选择30名因急性腹泻病住院或在门诊就诊的儿童，条件是他们在过去72小时内未接受过抗生素或化疗治疗。采集了所有患者的粪便样本进行病毒学、细菌学和寄生虫学研究，并将结果送至佩德罗·库里热带医学研究所。数据在DBASE III中进行处理。冬季月份的阳性指数更高。最常发现的病原体为：轮状病毒（8.2%）；溶组织内阿米巴（6.1%）；以及沙门氏菌（4.2%）。大肠杆菌、弯曲杆菌、志贺氏菌和轮状病毒在冬季的指数更高。福氏志贺氏菌和宋内志贺氏菌占主导。最常发现的是沙门氏菌D、B和C血清群，以及肠致病性大肠杆菌0119和026亚群。
