Leveraging data from 1715 children in the MAL-ED birth cohort study, Stephanie A Brennhofer and colleagues model the expected reduction in diarrhea episodes, antibiotic use, and bystander pathogen exposure to antibiotics through the administration of Shigella vaccines.
The Community-Based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) model transformed the treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) by shifting treatment from inpatient facilities to the community. Evidence shows that while CMAM programs are effective in the initial recovery from SAM, recovery is not sustained for some children requiring them to receive treatment repeatedly. This indicates a potential gap in the model, yet little evidence is available on the incidence of relapse, the determinants of the phenomena, or its financial implications on program delivery. This study is a multi-country pros...
Pathogens that Cause Illness Clinically Indistinguishable from Lassa Fever, Nigeria, 2018 - The Maravi Post
E-Mail Monash University researchers have validated a way to successfully detect a diverse range of bacteria (pathogens) that cause diarrhoeal disease in informal settlements. Better protection from disease for people living in communities facing water, sanitation and hygiene challenges is essential, as microbes that cause gastrointestinal disease (enteropathogens) are responsible for 1.4 million deaths per year, predominantly in children under five, and cause impaired nutrition and development. However, it is highly challenging to effectively monitor their spread due to the sheer number o...
Study explores new intervention in fight against gastrointestinal disease in informal settlements ANI | Updated: May 14, 2021 12:44 IST Melbourne [Australia], May 14 (ANI): A team of researchers has validated a way to successfully detect a diverse range of bacteria (pathogens) that cause diarrhoeal disease in informal settlements. The findings of the study were published in the journal 'The Lancet Planetary Health'. Better protection from disease for people living in communities facing water, sanitation and hygiene challenges is essential, as microbes tha...
