The role of the duodenal microflora as a determinant of persistent diarrhoea. Abstract Text:

It has been suggested that proliferation of enterobacteriaceae and/or anaerobes in the duodenum of some children with acute diarrhoea determines whether the episode becomes persistent. A review of published studies and the comparison of cultures of duodenal aspirates from Peruvian children with acute and persistent diarrhoea and diarrhoea-free children did not support this hypothesis. Although many children had enterobacteriaceae and/or anaerobes cultured there was no correlation with clinical and nutritional outcome. Age, nutritional status, the environment and the aetiology of the episode were determinants of the duodenal microflora independent of diarrhoea. Culture of the duodenal aspirates did not increase the yield of enteropathogens which were isolated more frequently from stools than from the duodenum. Despite the presence of a single strain or serotype of enterobacteriaceae suggesting that these bacteria were colonizing the duodenum, we were unable to demonstrate any adherence mechanisms in the majority of them. Two of ten bacteria with no other evidence of virulence caused diarrhoea in the RITARD rabbit model.
