[The characteristics of acute enterocolitis and Escherichia infections in the Ukrainian SSR]. 1989

A M Kas'ianenko, and L V Grigor'eva, and V I Bondarenko

A nosogeographic study in the Ukrainian SSR revealed 3 zones of gastroenterocolitis morbidity: low, average and above average. Also cartographically were determined 3 Escherichia infection morbidity zones in children under 1 year of age. Conformity of pathogenic Escherichia serogroups (025, 026, 055, 0119 and others) among most humans, animals and environment suggest circulation of pathogens by the cycle: man (patient, carrier)--environment--animals (birds) and vice versa.

D004197	Disease Reservoirs	Animate or inanimate sources which normally harbor disease-causing organisms and thus serve as potential sources of disease outbreaks. Reservoirs are distinguished from vectors (DISEASE VECTORS) and carriers, which are agents of disease transmission rather than continuing sources of potential disease outbreaks. Humans may serve both as disease reservoirs and carriers.
