[Hospital mortality in children aged 0 to 15 years at a pediatric service in Tunis over a period of 5 years (1983-1987)].

The authors studied the hospital mortality among 0-15 years old children hospitalized in a department of pediatrics in Tunis from 1983 to 1987. A significant decrease in the mortality rate was observed (from 12.21 to 8.23%). Neonates and hypotrophic children made up the at-risk groups. Causes for mortality mostly consisted of infectious diseases. The maximum of deaths were observed during the Summer-Autumn period and especially in the evenings. The decrease in the mortality rate was correlated with the time when mothers began to be hospitalized with their children.

[Rhinopneumonia and equine viral arteritis: seroepidemiological study in the northeast of Tunisia].

A seroepidemiological survey was realized in the Nord-Est Tunisia to study the prevalence of complement fixing and neutralizing antibodies to equine rhinopneumonitis and viral arteritis of horse, respectively. Four hundred sera were tested, using complement fixation reaction and seroneutralization test. The results show that 8.75% of sera have antibodies to viral arteritis and only 1.25% are positive for equine rhinopneumonitis.
