note = "Funding Information: The syndrome in which the passage of copious quanti-ties of rice-water stool results in extreme dehydration and circulatory collapse is not specific for infection with V. cholera. Such a syndrome, in which no evidence for V. cholera-infection was demonstrable by repeated bacterio- logic culture, dark-field examination, and immunological methods, occurred more frequently in areas of East Pakistan in the spring of 1964 than did true cholera itself. The duration and volume of watery diarrhoea was usually less than in cases of true cholera. In a few cases; infection with non-cholera vibrios was associated with the syndrome; but, in most, no known pathogen recovered. This work was supported in part by research agreement no. 196802 between the National Institutes of Health, U.S.A., and the Pakistan-SEATo Cholera Research Laboratory. We wish to acknow- ledge the tireless and able support of the nursing staff of the Cholera Research Laboratory Hospital, under the direction of Miss Dorothy Torrance.",
