Diarrhea episodes and asymptomatic stools, by <i>Campylobacter</i> species.
*<p>Diarrheal episodes were considered associated with <i>Campylobacter</i> when at least one stool sample from the episode was culture-positive for Campylobacter. A stool sample was considered associated with the episode when it was collected during, or up to one day after, the episode. Only stool samples that could be associated with anthropometry are reported here.</p><p>Asymptomatic stools were collected quarterly.</p
Smoothed plots of incidence versus age, and the percentage of stools positive by etiology.
<p>The peak incidence of <i>Campylobacter</i>-associated diarrhea occurs at approximately 18 months of age, and declines rapidly thereafter. However, its isolation rate in diarrheal and asymptomatic stool samples remains roughly constant from 18–72 months of age.</p
