Figure 1

Age distribution of the 1641 evaluable community-acquired rotavirus cases presenting to CHOP during the last 12 rotavirus epidemic seasons (1994-05 through 2005-06) prior to introduction of the new rotavirus vaccines. A histogram shows the frequency of community-acquired rotavirus cases presenting to CHOP by age for the entire 12-year time period under study. Mean age = 18.1 months; standard deviation = 25.1 months; minimum age = 0 months; Q1 = 5 months; median age = 11 months; Q3 = 21 months; maximum age = 240 months; IQR = 16 months. Age was not recorded for 5 of the 1646 children with community-acquired rotavirus gastroenteritis presenting to CHOP during this period, who were therefore excluded from the analysis.
