It provides readers with the knowledge needed to make progress in the prevention and treatment of these infections. Readers will also find an overview of gastroentitis vaccines, their structure and molecular biology, as well as the basic pathology of infection, epidemiology and surveillance. \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides an interdisciplinary approach, offering contributions from basic and clinical research\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses the prevention and treatment of regimes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes an overview of gastroentitis vaccines\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003eEin modernes Thema - vor allem angesichts der Entwicklung eines Rotavirus-Impfstoffs und der Identifizierung zahlreicher neuer Gastroenteritis-Viren.

Many hundreds of thousands of children die annually from rotavirus diarrhoea in the developing world, and although in industrialized countries rotavieus infection is rarely fatal, the economic burden of the disease is substantial. Human caliciviruses have emerged as a significant cause of viral gastroenteritis globally. This book contains presentations and discussions by internationally recognized experts on virus structure, replication, pathogenesis, immune response and correlates of protection, molecular-epidemiological surveillance, advances in treatment, and efforts to develop vaccines, particularly against rotavirus disease. The spectrum of viruses covered comprises rotaviruses, human caliciviruses, astroviruses, coronaviruses and viruses causing gut disease in the immunocompromized host. The book not only conveys facts but also gives ample room to lively discussions on many issues at the forefront of research and development.","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989272051941,"sku":"NP9780471496632","price":204.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780471496632.jpg?v=1761783466","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/gastroenteritis-viruses-isbn-9780471496632","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
