Presentation
The aim of this study was to investigate the presentation and complications of rotavirus compared to non-rotavirus gastroenteritis in UK children. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We excluded articles that did not present overall impact estimates, including those that compared subnational populations or those that presented rotavirus strain–specific impact. [doi.org]

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
Other reports have cited Kawasaki syndrome ( 33 ), sudden infant death syndrome ( 54 ), a hepatic abscess ( 21 ), pancreatitis ( 38 ), and diabetes ( 22 ) in association with rotavirus infection. [doi.org]

Neurologic Manifestation
It is known that rotavirus gastroenteritis may be accompanied by neurological manifestations, including encephalitis/encephalopathy and seizures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
-
Dysarthria
The condition is characterized by disturbances of consciousness at onset and cerebellar signs and symptoms such as hypotonia, ataxia, dysmetria, and speech disorders, including mutism, slow speech, and dysarthria at convalescence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
-
Speech Disorder
The condition is characterized by disturbances of consciousness at onset and cerebellar signs and symptoms such as hypotonia, ataxia, dysmetria, and speech disorders, including mutism, slow speech, and dysarthria at convalescence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
-
Dysmetria
The condition is characterized by disturbances of consciousness at onset and cerebellar signs and symptoms such as hypotonia, ataxia, dysmetria, and speech disorders, including mutism, slow speech, and dysarthria at convalescence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
-
Cerebellar Sign
Recently several patients with acute encephalitis/encephalopathy due to rotavirus associated with cerebellar signs and symptoms have been reported. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
It was felt that the anemia was associated with the long-term use of NTZ, thus an anemia workup was not initiated but would have been considered if the blood count had not improved. [healio.com]
See Workup for more detail. Management In most cases, no medication is required for rotavirus infection. Instead, attention should be directed to appropriate fluid intake and other conservative measures. [emedicine.com]
Microbiology
-
Listeria Monocytogenes
Listeria monocytogenes only occasionally causes bacterial meningitis in immunocompetent children. We report a case of L. monocytogenes meningitis associated with rotavirus gastroenteritis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Furthermore, ondansetron reduced diarrhea episodes, most pronounced in children that had been sick for more than 3 days before treatment (p 0.028). CONCLUSION: Ondansetron may be a beneficial treatment for children with rotavirus gastroenteritis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Diarrheal Disease Treatment "Oral rehydration therapy is the best." [biomedcentral.com]
Prognosis
What is the prognosis of a rotavirus infection? Rotavirus infection is a self-limited disease that resolves after three to nine days of symptoms. Rarely, severe dehydration accompanying rotavirus infection has led to death. [medicinenet.com]

Prognosis Except for mild cases or sectorial RP, most cases progress to legal blindness (visual acuity 1/20 and visual field 5 degrees). The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
Etiology
Rotaviruses are members of the Reoviridae family of non-enveloped viruses and important etiologic agents of acute gastroenteritis in infants and young children. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It is the most important etiologic agent globally of diarrhea in children under 5 years of age (2). Two globally licensed vaccines (Rotarix and RotaTeq) have been developed for the control of human RVA (3). [mra.asm.org]
Epidemiology
To enable greater understanding of the overall epidemiologic situation, rotavirus types found in animals in Europe are described. In addition, rotavirus types occurring in children outside Europe are considered. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology
In this review we intend to familiarise clinicians who primarily provide care for adult patients with the salient features of rotavirus pathophysiology, clinical presentation, epidemiology, treatment, and prevention. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology is complex and not fully understood Enterocytes at villous tips are initially infected; the virus binds surface carbohydrates and penetrates the cell membrane leading to transcription of viral RNA Damage to the mucosa leads to malabsorption [pathologyoutlines.com]
The pathophysiology of rotavirus diarrhea is clearly multifactoral. [doi.org]
Evo﹠Evo) talk 06:22, 27 April 2017 (UTC) Review by anonymous peer reviewer This review was submitted on 27 Apr 2017, and refers to this previous version of the article Content: The content is accurate and reflects the current state of rotavirus from a pathophysiology [en.wikiversity.org]
Prevention
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate rotavirus vaccines approved for use (RV1, RV5, and LLR) for preventing rotavirus diarrhoea. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Both asymptomatic infection and person-to-person spread identified in this epidemic suggest that current emphasis on preventing waterborne transmission may not control the introduction of ADRV into new areas. [doi.org]
