Abstract
Group A rotavirus (RVA) is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis in young children worldwide. A prospective surveillance network has been set up to investigate the virological and clinical features of RVA infections and to detect the emergence of potentially epidemic strains in France. From 2009 to 2014, RVA-positive stool samples were collected from 4800 children <5 years old attending the paediatric emergency units of 16 large hospitals. Rotaviruses were then genotyped by RT-PCR with regard to their outer capsid proteins VP4 and VP7. Genotyping of 4708 RVA showed that G1P[8] strains (62.2%) were predominant. The incidence of G9P[8] (11.5%), G3P[8] (10.4%) and G2P[4] (6.6%) strains varied considerably, whereas G4P[8] (2.7%) strains were circulating mostly locally. Of note, G12P[8] (1.6%) strains emerged during the seasons 2011-12 and 2012-13 with 4.1% and 3.0% prevalence, respectively. Overall, 40 possible zoonotic reassortants, such as G6 (33.3%) and G8 (15.4%) strains, were detected, and were mostly associated with P[6] (67.5%). Analysis of clinical records of 624 hospitalized children and severity scores from 282 of them showed no difference in clinical manifestations or severity in relation to the genotype. The relative stability of RVA genotypes currently co-circulating and the large predominance of P[8] type strains may ensure vaccine effectiveness in France. The surveillance will continue to monitor the emergence of new reassortants that might not respond to current vaccines, all the more so as all genotypes can cause severe infections in infants.

Abstract
Mobile phones (MPs) are potential reservoirs of nosocomial bacteria, but few data are available concerning viruses. We aimed to evaluate the presence of virus RNA from epidemic viruses including metapneumovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, influenza viruses, rotavirus (RV) and norovirus on the MPs used by healthcare workers (HCWs) and to relate it to hygiene measures. An anonymous behavioural questionnaire about MP use at hospital was administered to the HCWs of four adult and paediatric departments of a university hospital. After sampling personal (PMP) and/or professional MPs (digital enhanced cordless telephone, DECT), virus RNAs were extracted and amplified by one-step real-time reverse transcription–quantitative PCR. The molecular results were analysed in a masked manner in relation to the behavioural survey. Questionnaires from 114 HCWs (35 senior physicians, 30 residents, 32 nurses, 27 nurses' assistants) working either in adult (n = 58) or paediatric (n = 56) departments were analysed. Medical personnel used their PMP more frequently than paramedical HCWs (33/65 vs. 10/59, p <0.001). MPs were used during care more frequently in adult wards than in paediatric ones (46/58 vs. 27/56, p <0.001). Virus RNA was detected on 42/109 (38.5%) collected MPs, with RV found on 39, respiratory syncytial virus on three and metapneumovirus on one. The presence of virus RNA was significantly associated with MPs from the paediatric HCWs (p <0.001). MPs routinely used in hospital, even during care, can host virus RNA, especially RV. Promotion of frequent hand hygiene before and after MP use, along with frequent cleaning of MPs, should be encouraged.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scurvy is the classic and most severe form of vitamin C deficiency. This condition has become extremely rare among children in the industrialized countries. PATIENTS AND METHODS We report the case of two boys presenting bone pain associated with haemorrhagic gingivitis, with perifollicular purpura of the lower limbs in one boy. The children had an unbalanced diet. Scurvy was associated with vitamin D and iron deficiency. The dermatological and radiological abnormalities seen were characteristic and a favourable outcome was rapidly obtained following supplementation. DISCUSSION The possibility of this forgotten historical illness should not be overlooked in the presence of these dermatological and rheumatologic signs, since this can help avoid unnecessary or excessively aggressive investigations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of visits to the pediatric emergency services has increased in the past 20 years in France and around the world, especially for neonates (under 28 days of age). OBJECTIVES Determine for neonates the reasons requiring medical consultation in the emergency pediatric unit of Saint-Etienne University Hospital (France) and isolate the proportion of "non-urgent" preventable consultations that could be managed outside of emergency units. METHOD Epidemiological, retrospective study on computerized data on neonates who were referred to the pediatric emergency unit of the Saint-Étienne University Hospital from 1 January to 31 December 2011. Four composite criteria "child not addressed by a healthcare professional; severity score G1, G2, G3 based on an internal scale; no further review undertaken; and return home" were used to define "non-urgent" consultations. RESULTS A total of 419 infants were included in the study. The leading reasons for consultations were crying (14.1%), vomiting (11.9%), chest tightness (10.7%), fever (8.1%), and diarrhea (7%). The main diagnoses were acute nasopharyngitis (11.5%), gastroesophageal reflux (10%), colic (8.1%), and excessive parental anxiety (7.6%). The percentage of "non-urgent" consultations was 52.4%. CONCLUSIONS Final diagnoses are quite similar to the reasons for consultation. The baby's unexplained crying and the inexperience of young parents resulted in an irrational anxiety. This study highlights the need for parental support at home after discharge from the maternity ward and the use of large-scale educational initiatives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rotavirus (RV) is the main infectious agent of severe acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in infants and children under 5 years. Given the recent availability of new vaccines, it is important to accurately assess the incidence of rotavirus gastroenteritis (GERV) and their medical and epidemiological consequences. METHODS This work is the French part of study program called SPRIK, a multicenter, prospective, observational study conducted from October 2005 to May 2007 to estimate the annual incidence of GERV within children under 5 years visiting a general practitioner or pediatrician. It presents data collected by 41 general practitioners and 36 paediatricians located throughout the French metropolitan territory. A stool sample was taken for every child. Rotavirus presence was sought by the physician using a rapid immunochromatographic test. French results are presented in this article. RESULTS A total of 1648 GEA episodes corresponding to 1463 eligible patients were included in the study mainly from December to May (peak in February-March). The incidence rate of GERV leading to consultations in general practice was 1357 cases per 100,000 patient-years (PY) (1.36%), with a 95% confidence interval of [1345-1368]. The peak incidence occurs before 2 years. GERV accounted for 21% of all GEA cases seen by paediatricians and general practitioners. Patients with GERV were younger (14.1 ± 10.8 versus 18.4 ± 13.9 months for other GEA, P<0.0001) and had more severe clinical symptoms: presence of fever (32.6% versus 20.0%, P<0.0001), behavioural symptoms (45.6% versus 20.8%, P<0.0001) and dehydration (48.7% versus 21.2%, P<0.0001). GERV episodes were considered severe in 79.7% of cases, using the Vesikari scale. More than 86% patients received oral rehydration during the episode and 13 patients (5.8%) were hospitalized. Nearly 80% GERV episodes were considered severe using the Vesikari scale. Main genotypes were G1P[8] rotavirus (44%) and G9P[8] rotavirus (35%) types. CONCLUSION The incidence rate reported in this study is close to results of previous studies done in Europe. The frequency and severity relative to GERV support vaccination in very young children to reduce the burden associated with this pathology.

Abstract
Trichobezoars are made up of concretions of ingested hair and food. A history of occlusive syndrome in a context of trichotillomania and psychological problems must lead to this diagnosis. Bezoars can be fortuitously recognised by palpation of an epigastric abdominal mass while investigating anemia or esophageal reflux. This deviance is particularly dangerous. The first case of this series illustrates the Rapunzel syndrome with many perforations and necrosis of the small bowel. The 4 others are strict intragastric bezoars, quickly identified by echography. Treatment is exclusively surgical, digestion by papain or endoscopic extraction being impossible. Psychological assistance is mandatory.

Abstract
This study describes the development and evaluation of a new commercial test, Chlamylege (Argene Inc.), which allows the simultaneous detection in respiratory samples of Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and most Legionella species, as well as PCR inhibitors, by using a multiplex PCR and microplate hybridization. The sensitivities of Chlamylege were 1 x 10(-3) IFU, 5 x 10(-2) color-changing units, and 1 CFU per reaction tube for C. pneumoniae, M. pneumoniae, and Legionella pneumophila, respectively. A cohort of 154 clinical samples from patients with documented respiratory infections was analyzed by the kit, including 2 samples from patients with C. pneumoniae infection, 9 samples from patients with M. pneumoniae infection, 19 samples from patients with Legionella species infection, and 114 samples that tested negative for the three pathogens. All the positive specimens were correctly detected and identified by the Chlamylege kit, and no false-positive result was observed with the negative samples. The kit was then evaluated in a pediatric prospective study that included 220 endotracheal aspirates, and the results were compared with those obtained by three single in-house PCR assays. Four specimens were found to be positive for C. pneumoniae and six were found to be positive for M. pneumoniae by using both strategies. The Chlamylege kit detected two additional samples positive for M. pneumoniae and one additional sample positive for a Legionella species other than L. pneumophila; these three samples were shown to be true positive by other techniques. These overall results demonstrate that the Chlamylege assay is sensitive, specific, and convenient for the rapid detection and identification of atypical pathogens in clinical samples from patients with respiratory infections.
