Case–control comparison of bacterial and protozoan microorganisms associated with gastroenteritis: application of molecular detection

Abstract excerpt

The introduction of molecular detection of infectious organisms has led to increased numbers of positive findings, as observed for pathogens causing gastroenteritis (GE). However, because little is known about the prevalence of these pathogens in the healthy asymptomatic population, the clinical value of these additional findings is unclear. A case-control study was carried out in a population of patients served...
