Thirty-one cases with laboratory-confirmed cryptosporidiosis and 97 age- and geographically matched controls selected by random digit dialling were recruited into a case-control study and interviewed for infection risk factors. Cryptosporidiosis was associated with swimming at Facility A (matched odds ratio = 19.4, 95% confidence interval: 3.7\u2013100.8) and exposure to household contacts with diarrhoea (matched odds ratio = 7.7, 95% confidence interval: 1.9\u201331.4) in multivariable conditional logistic regression models. A protective effect for any animal contact was also found (matched odds ratio = 0.2, 95% confidence interval: 0.1\u20130.7).<jats:italic>Cryptosporidium hominis<\/jats:italic>subtype IbA10G2 was identified in 8 of 11 diagnostic stool samples available for cases. This investigation reaffirms the importance of public swimming pools as potential sources of<jats:italic>Cryptosporidium<\/jats:italic>infection and ensuring their compliance with water-quality guidelines. The protective effect of animal contact may be suggestive of past exposure leading to immunity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2011\/341065","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,12,13]],"date-time":"2011-12-13T21:01:11Z","timestamp":1323810071000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["A
