Evaluation of a phased pneumococcal conjugate vaccine introduction in Mongolia using enhanced pneumonia surveillance and community carriage surveys

Streptococcus pneumoniae causes substantial morbidity and mortality among children. The introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) has the potential to dramatically reduce disease burden. As with any vaccine, it is important to evaluate PCV impact, to help guide decision-making and resource-allocation.

Mental wellbeing in non-ambulant youth with neuromuscular disorders: What makes the difference?

Mental wellbeing was independently associated with academic achievement and perceived family support but not with physical health variables

Haptic Exploratory Procedures of Children and Youth with and without Cerebral Palsy

Children with cerebral palsy performed similar haptic exploratory procedures as their typical development peers

Baseline incidence of adverse birth outcomes and infant influenza and pertussis hospitalisations prior to the introduction of influenza and pertussis vaccination

These baseline data are essential to assess the safety and effectiveness of influenza and pertussis vaccinations in pregnant women from the NT

Investigation of group A Streptococcus immune responses in an endemic setting, with a particular focus on J8

We analysed the stimulation of J8 antibodies in response to infection, and the role of existing J8 antibodies in protection against subsequent infection

Predicting language difficulties in middle childhood from early developmental milestones: A comparison of traditional regression and machine learning techniques

The current study provides preliminary evidence that machine learning algorithms provide equivalent predictive accuracy to traditional methods for language difficulties in middle childhood

Ultraviolet irradiation of skin alters the faecal microbiome independently of vitamin D in mice

Skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation alters the faecal microbiome, and further investigations to explore the implications of this in health and disease are warranted

Using linked data to investigate developmental vulnerabilities in children of convicted parents

Although children of convicted parents experience a higher incidence of sociodemographic risk, their parents' criminal activity constitutes an independent risk factor for their development

Transcriptional landscape of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in macrophages

A comprehensive in depth gene expression/regulation profile in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected macrophages

Prenatal and perinatal risks for late language emergence in a population-level sample of twins at age 2

This study investigated the extent to which prenatal and perinatal risk factors were associated with LLE in a population-level sample of twins at age 2 without overt disability.
