ABSTRACT
We studied the aetiological agents of acute respiratory infections occuring in an ambulatory population of 83 malnourished Jamaican-born children aged 6 to 32 months using serological methods for diagnosis. In 60 percent (38/63) of symptomatic children and in 25 percent (5/20) those without reported disease the following microorganisms were observed parainfluenza viruses in 15 children, influenza viruses in 12, adenovirus in 10, respiratory syncitial virus in 7 and Mycoplasma pneumoniae in 7 children. The prevalence of the viral infections apparently increased with the severity of malnutrition. (AU)
