[Long-term follow-up of the etiology of diarrhea with emphasis on the role of rotaviruses in hospitalized patients at the Infectious Disease Clinic of the Medical School Hospital in Plzen].
During 1986-1994 the etiological structure of diarrhoea in hospitalized patients at the Infectious Diseases Clinic, University Hospital Plzen was analyzed. In children under four years most frequently (in 26%) rotaviruses were involved, in older patients their ratio was lower and the decisive pathogenetic organism were salmonellae.
