Avaliação quantitativa de enteropatógenos em crianças com e sem diarréia na cidade de São Paulo, SP.

Abstract in Portuguese
A diarréia aguda é a segunda causa de morte em crianças < 5 anos em países emergentes. Anaeróbios estritos intestinais como B. fragilis enterotoxigênico e Clostridium difficile estão associados a este quadro infeccioso, assim como Escherichia coli diarreiogênica, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp. e Yersinia enterocolitica. Neste estudo, foi avaliada quantitativamente a presença de enteropatógenos diretamente das fezes. Amostras fecais de crianças com (110) e sem (150) diarréia foram analisadas. Todos os enteropatógenos avaliados foram detectados nas crianças com e sem diarréia, à exceção de Salmonella spp. e Y. enterocolitica que foram observados somente em fezes diarréicas. Os resultados sugerem uma relação bacteriana estreita e presentes em casos diarréicos ou não diarréicos. A presença de espécies EPEC/EHEC e de Shigella spp./EIEC mostraram valores estatisticamente significativos.

Abstract in English
Diarrhea is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide achieving children < 5 years old, and is second cause of death in emerging countries. Intestinal anaerobes like enterotoxigenic B. fragilis and Clostridium difficile are associated to acute diarrhea, as well as diarreiogenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp. and Yersinia enterocolitica. In this study, it was evaluated quantitatively the presence of enteropathogens directly from fezes. Stools specimens from children with (110) and without (150) diarrhea were collected. All enteropathogens were detected in children with and without diarrhea except Salmonella spp. and Y. enterocolitica that were only observed in diarrheal fezes. This results suggest a tight bacterial relationship in both groups evaluated. The presence of EPEH/EHEC and Shigella spp./EIEC show statistically significant values.
