 AB    Occurrence of vomiting and diarrhea in patients with acquired
       immunodeficiency syndrome was most frequently attributed to
       enteropathogens organism that invade the gastrointestinal tract because
       of the immunologic unbalance of the host... Among several causes the
       cryptosporidium has been detected quite often and its predominant
       localization was the gastrointestinal tract, although other
       extraintestinal sites has also been reported. In both cases, erosive
       congestive gastritis was found, while histological examination showed
       cryptosporidium in gastric biopsy specimens.
