The intra-familialshigellatransmission rate was 8 % (17/227).From theCambridge English Corpus
A total of 161shigellastrains were isolated from humans during the year of study.From theCambridge English Corpus
Shigellawas isolated starting at 6 months of age and 19 % of diarrhoeal episodes in children were associated withshigellainfections.From theCambridge English Corpus
Finally, 227 (58 %) patients with culture-provenshigellainfections were retained as index cases of whom 133 (59 %) were males.From theCambridge English Corpus
The attributable risk forshigella-associated diarrhoea due to intra-familial transmission was 50%.From theCambridge English Corpus
Shigellaspecies are important pathogens responsible for diarrhoeal diseases and dysentery occurring all over the world.From theCambridge English Corpus
All the stool specimens were negative for salmonella,shigella, campylobacter and other common enteric pathogens.From theCambridge English Corpus
The definition of asymptomatic carriage ofshigellawas based on only one stool specimen, rather than specimens of 10 consecutive days.From theCambridge English Corpus
Patients whose stool culture yielded ashigellaisolate were then enrolled as an index case.From theCambridge English Corpus
With twoshigellaisolates from a household, one intrafamily comparison per pair (icp) was obtained.From theCambridge English Corpus
Several methods have been used to study the epidemiology ofshigellainfections.From theCambridge English Corpus
In a household with threeshigellaisolates, three combinations per pair were obtained (3 icp).From theCambridge English Corpus
One of 37 family studies showed the highest variation with 7 isolates of 6 different serotypes ofshigellathat were isolated.From theCambridge English Corpus
In 1998-2000shigellastrains also developed resistance to amikacin, to which they were susceptible earlier.From theCambridge English Corpus
Results of this study demonstrated that intra-familial transmission ofshigellacarries a higher risk for diarrhoea.From theCambridge English Corpus
