  1. New viral causes of pediatric gastroenteritis
    Rodney Ratcliff; Fiscal Year: 2006
    ..Some therapies to treat AGE are virus specific. Understanding the presence and role of other viruses is the important first step in determining strategies to reduce or eliminate disease caused by them in the community. ..
