Cytomegalovirus is one of the most common infectious pathogens affecting solid
organ transplant recipients. The most common target organ is the GI tract.
But other viruses are being increasingly recognized, including norovirus, rotavirus,
and adenovirus.
Norovirus has been evaluated in a retrospective study in a single center. Eighty-
seven patients were included and 46 of them had chronic diarrhea.
Twenty patients with unexplained diarrhea were screened for norovirus and
sapovirus. Sixteen were positive.
Norovirus (gold standard is PCR of stool RNA or antigen)

There are many trials (mostly open label) that have compared GI symptoms and quality of life of the two
above.
