Livengood, M.D." On page 569, the sentence that begins on line 17 of the left-hand column should have read, "According to the results of our case-series analysis, 732 additional cases attributable to RRV-TV," not "attributable to intussusception," as printed. On page 570, beginning seven lines from the bottom of the left-hand column, the sentences should have read, "Wild human rotaviruses are detected uncommonly in cases of intussusception.252627 Rotaviruses elaborate an enterotoxin that has age-dependent and dose-dependent functions.28 In mice infected with RRV (rhesus rotavirus), secretion of fluid and electrolytes involves activation of the enteric nervous system,29 which is also integral to peristalsis.30" Also on page 570, on line 7 of the Appendix, "C.
