The role of Campylobacter concisus as a cause of acute gastroenteritis remains to be demonstrated. This prospective study includes 184 cases and 176 controls. It shows no evidence that C. concisus plays a role in acute gastroenteritis. Considering the very low prevalence in cases and controls, if there is an etiologic link, it would be moderate and difficult to demonstrate.

Background: While viruses remain the leading cause of infectious myocarditis, improved diagnostic methods have highlighted the role of bacteria as a possible cause. We report two cases of myocarditis as a complication of infection.
Case Summaries: Patient A, a 17-year-old Caucasian male with a history of asthma, presented to the emergency department (ED) after experiencing fever and nausea for four days, followed by 1 day of diarrhoea and chest discomfort.
Background: Human noroviruses are the major cause of acute gastroenteritis and exhibit considerable genetic diversity. Next generation sequencing (NGS) analysis based on environmental surveillance has been proved to be an effective method in norovirus surveillance.
Methods: Between January 2019 and December 2021, 36 sewage samples were collected and analyzed using real-time quantitative PCR to detect noroviruses.

Introduction Climate change is a decisive factor affecting human health. While many epidemiological studies have investigated the acute impacts of ambient temperature on mortality and morbidity, the global burden of infectious gastroenteritis linked to temperature changes remains largely unexplored. Therefore, we aimed to examine the exposure-response associations between ambient temperature and infectious gastroenteritis incidence throughout Japan and quantify the temperature-related morbidity burden.

Human noroviruses (HNoVs) are a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide, with significant public health implications. In this study, wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) was used to monitor the circulation and genetic diversity of HNoVs in Rome over an eight-year period (2017-2024). A total of 337 wastewater samples were analyzed using RT-nested PCR and next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify genogroups GI and GII and their respective genotypes.
