Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinical features of gastrointestinal influenza and rotavirus enteritis with fever in children. Methods: Clinical data of children with gastrointestinal influenza and rotavirus enteritis from December 2017 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: 1) There were 102 cases of gastrointestinal influenza and 268 cases of rotavirus enteritis. The mean age of onset of gastrointestinal influenza was 3.9 ± 2.3 years, and the group of rotavirus enteritis was 1.9 ± 1.8 years. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t = 8.2, P < 0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in gender composition between the two groups (P > 0.05). 2) All patients had a fever. It is defined as high heat when the thermal peak exceeds 39℃. The high fever incidence of gastrointestinal influenza was 88.2% (90/102), and the group of rotavirus enteritis was 74.6% (200/268). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (X2 = 8.1, P < 0.01). The heat peak of gastrointestinal influenza group was 39.2 ± 0.7℃, while that of rotavirus enteritis group was 38.8 ± 0.6℃. There was significant difference between the two groups (t = 6.1, P < 0.01). 3) All the patients had diarrhea and vomiting of varying degrees. The maximum number of diarrhea per day in the group of rotavirus enteritis was (5.4 ± 2.9) times, which was higher than that in gastrointestinal influenza group (1.3 ± 1.9) times, there was statistical signific-ance between the two groups (t = ?16.0, P < 0.01). The maximum number of vomiting per day in ro-tavirus enteritis group was (2.7 ± 2.7) times, which was higher than that in gastrointestinal influenza group (1.8 ± 1.8) times. There was statistical significance between the two groups (t = ?4.1, P < 0.01). 4) The severity was evaluated by Vesikari clinical severity scoring system. Gastrointestinal influenza group scores 5.9 ± 1.6 points and rotavirus enteritis group scores 8.3 ± 2.4 points. There was signifi-cant difference between the two groups (t = 11.2, P < 0.01). There was statistical difference in the proportion of light, moderate and severe cases between the two groups (X2 = 86.2, P < 0.01). Conclu-sion: Gastrointestinal influenza and rotavirus enteritis are intersected in season, the clinical charac-teristics are similar, but the frequency of heat peak, diarrhea and vomiting, and disease severity is different. Rapid etiological detection is helpful for differential diagnosis.
