lüll Global etiology of travelers diarrhea: systematic review from 1973 to the present Shah N; DuPont HL; Ramsey DJAm J Trop Med Hyg 2009[Apr]; 80 (4): 609-14Fifty-one published studies of travelers' diarrhea (TD) were examined to look for regional differences in pathogens identified. Enterotoxigenic E. coli was detected in 1,678/5,518 (30.4%) of TD cases overall, with rates in Latin America/Caribbean (L. America), Africa, south Asia, and Southeast Asia of 1,109/3,302 (33.6%), 389/1,217 (31.2%), 153/499 (30.6%), and 36/500 (7.2%), respectively (P < 0.001). Enteroaggregative E. coli was the second most common agent in L. America, found in 166/689 (24.1%), compared with 3/165 (1.8%) in Africa and 33/206 (16%) in south Asia (P < 0.001). Other significantly regional differences were seen for enteropathogenic E. coli, diffusely adherent E. coli, Campylobacter, Shigella spp., Salmonella, Aeromonas spp., Plesiomonas, Vibrios, rotavirus, noroviruses, Giardia, and Entoamoeba histolytica. The regional differences in pathogen identification identified will serve as a baseline for antimicrobial therapy recommendations and vaccines strategies.|*Global Health[MESH]|*Travel[MESH]|Bacterial Infections/*epidemiology[MESH]|Diarrhea/*epidemiology/microbiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Virus Diseases/*epidemiology[MESH] |
