Age-Dependent Variations in the Distribution of Species in Human Enteric Infections.

species are enteropathogens that cause gastroenteritis with a unique three-peak infection pattern related to patient age. The contributions of individual species to age-related infections remain unknown. Multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) was performed to determine the species of strains from Australian patients with gastroenteritis.

Developmental Assessment in Neonatal Hypernatremic Dehydration Cohort at 18-30 months of Age Using DASII Score.

Developmental assessment of neonatal hypernatremic dehydration cohort was done at 18-30 mo of age using Developmental Assessment Scale for Indian Infants (DASII) score in relation to brain lesions detected on brain imaging. Long-term follow-up evaluations were performed in 45 out of initial cohort of neonatal hypernatremic dehydration and compared with 45 controls with normal sodium levels. Seven percent of infants in the study group had a delay in development at 24 mo of age.
