Recent advances in gastro-enteritis.

This paper briefly reviews new knowledge about the causes, consequences and control of gastro-enteritis. Various recently discovered viral and bacterial causes of gastro-enteritis are discussed and the possible role of prolonged gut infection in causing malabsorption and thus malnutrition, considered. The revival of interest in prevention by improved water supplies is discussed and the need to critically evaluate the relative importance of the quality and quantity of a water supply stressed. Some newer regimes for treating acute and chronic infections are also discussed.

A preliminary study of nine children under five years of age admitted to Port Moresby General Hospital with acute gastro-enteritis showed that five (56%) were excreting duovirus in their stools as shown by electron microscopy. Duovirus was not demonstrated in the stools of any of eight children with gastro-enteritis seen at Kainantu Health Centre.
