Rotavirus is the most important cause of severe gastroenteritis in infants and children worldwide. This virus causes an increase in inflammatory responses by increasing cellular oxidative stress and the expression and activity of the transcription factor NF-κB and COX-2. As a result of NF-κB activation, the expression of inflammatory cytokines also increases.

Background: Despite the adverse health outcomes associated with longer duration diarrhea (LDD), there are currently no clinical decision tools for timely identification and better management of children with increased risk. This study utilizes machine learning (ML) to derive and validate a predictive model for LDD among children presenting with diarrhea to health facilities.
Methods: LDD was defined as a diarrhea episode lasting ≥ 7 days.

Objective: To estimate and compare vaccination coverage among children born in 2017-2018 in São Paulo and Campinas, according to the Vaccination Coverage Survey (ICV 2020) and the National Immunization Program Information System (SI-PNI).
Methods: ICV 2020 analyzed vaccination card records. Coverage was calculated and compared to doses recorded on the SI-PNI, divided by the target population.
Background: Viral gastroenteritis is a significant global health concern. An effective, rapid, and easy-to-use diagnostic tool is essential for screening causative viruses.
Methods: Forty-eight samples, known to be infected with one of the following viruses: norovirus, group A rotavirus, astrovirus, adenovirus, and sapovirus determined by reverse transcription-PCR and nucleotide sequencing, were evaluated by the Fast Track Diagnostics (FTD) viral gastroenteritis assay.
