title: [The epidemiological aspects of campylobacteriosis in children in arid area].
abstract: Specific epidemiological features of Campylobacter infection in children in Samarkand Province during the period of 1987-1990 are discussed. The specific proportion of this infection in the total structure of acute enteric infections was, on the average, 8.5%, and Campylobacter carriership among healthy children, 7.0%. Among children with Campylobacter infection, children aged up to 1 year constituted 71.5%. The results of the study of the biological properties of Campylobacter strains isolated from sick and healthy children and their difference from strains isolated in other regions are discussed.
