National rotavirus vaccination programme implementation and gastroenteritis presentations: the paediatric emergency medicine perspective
ConclusionA reduction in PED presentations with AGE is demonstrated post-rotavirus vaccine introduction into the Irish National Immunisation Schedule. No significant change in paediatric hospital admissions was demonstrated.

Molecular epidemiology of human bocavirus in children with acute gastroenteritis from North Region of Brazil.
CONCLUSION: Our findings provide evidence for the circulation of most HBoV genotypes (except HBoV-4) in the North Region of Brazil at a considerable rate and further investigations are necessary to improve our knowledge in the context of HBoV infections and their role in gastrointestinal diseases.

Evidence of Herd Immunity and Sustained Impact of Rotavirus Vaccination on the Reduction of Rotavirus-Related Medical Encounters Among Infants from 2006 through 2011 in the United States
Conclusions: Analysis of a national medical claims database indicates a sustained and substantial decrease in the seasonal RV medical claims pattern after the introduction of RVV. This analysis also reveals evidence of herd immunity, although unvaccinated infants continue to be at risk and contribute to smaller seasonal peaks in RV disease activity.

Changes in the numbers of patients with acute gastroenteritis after voluntary introduction of the rotavirus vaccine in a Japanese children ’s primary emergency medical center
ConclusionsThe estimated rotavirus vaccine coverage in our area increased from 1% in 2011 to 49% in 2014; this coverage may have resulted in a reduction in AGE patients, both directly and indirectly, in our Japanese children ’s primary emergency medical center.

Rotavirus Vaccine Safety and Effectiveness in Infants With High-Risk Medical Conditions
CONCLUSIONSIn contrast to previous findings among healthy term infants, in routine use, HRV offered limited protection to vulnerable medical risk infants. HRV is generally well tolerated in this group in single administration, but when coadministered with routine vaccines, it is associated with higher risk of (mostly gastrointestinal) AE. Our study highlights the importance of studying vaccine performance in subgroups of medically vulnerable infants.

Epidemiology and medical cost of hospitalization due to rotavirus gastroenteritis among children under 5 years of age in the central-east of Tunisia.
This study aimed to describe the epidemiological profile of rotavirus disease in central-east Tunisia and to estimate its hospital cost. In the first stage - the prospective collection of epidemiological data - we enrolled all patients < 5 years old who were hospitalized for acute diarrhoea at 5 university paediatric departments in central-east Tunisia during the period 2009-2011. Rotavirus was responsible for 65 (23.3%) of the 279 cases enrolled. In the second stage, cost data were collected retrospectively using an activity-based costing method from the medical records of the children who were positively diagnosed wit...

Detection of Rotavirus Genotypes in Korea 5 Years after the Introduction of Rotavirus Vaccines.
This study documented RV genotypes in a Korean population of children with AGE 5 yr after the introduction of RVV and assessed potential genotype differences based on vaccination status or vaccine type. Children less than 5-yr-old diagnosed with AGE between October 2012 and September 2013 admitted to 9 medical institutions from 8 provinces in Korea were prospectively enrolled. Stool samples were tested for RV by enzyme immunoassay and genotyped by multiplex reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. In 346 patients, 114 (32.9%) were RV-positive. Among them, 87 (76.3%) patients were infected with RV alone. Eighty-six ...

Prevalence and characterization of rotaviruses in children hospitalized for diarrheal disease in a tertiary care hospital, Pune
Conclusion: Genotypes found in circulation are not present in the currently used vaccine. Thus, an emergence of newer genotypes over a period calls for the continued surveillance and genomic characterisation of rotaviruses to improve the vaccine efficacy.

Long-term impact of suboptimal rotavirus vaccines on acute gastroenteritis in hospitalized children in Northern Taiwan
Conclusion In Taiwan, under a suboptimal rotavirus vaccination policy, there was a marked decrease in the rate of rotavirus AGE of hospitalized young children. Significantly increased norovirus infection has replaced rotavirus as the leading cause. Expansion of rotavirus vaccine coverage, development of a norovirus prevention strategy, and sustained bacterial infection control are important for AGE containment in children in Taiwan.

Acute Gastroenteritis in Children of the World: What Needs to Be Done?
The incidence of gastroenteritis has greatly reduced due to improved hygiene conditions in developing countries and the use of rotavirus vaccine. Still thousands of children, however, die from gastroenteritis, most of them in poor countries. Yet gastroenteritis management is simple, inexpensive, and effective and is largely the same all over the world. Universal guidelines for gastroenteritis guide the management and include simple interventions put forward early in the course of the disease. Treatment includes rehydration, continuing oral feeding, and anti-infective drugs in selected clinical conditions related to the sym...
