This Phase-IIa trial evaluates the safety and pharmacokinetics of high-dose, 10 weekly subcutaneous injections of penicillin (SCIP) in young people with a history of acute rheumatic fever (ARF).
This study provides new knowledge on ARF characteristics and management and highlights international variation in diagnostic and management practice.
Alarming statistics laying bare the social emotional wellbeing and mental health challenges facing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTQA+ youth are driving a multi-partner program to provide them with greater support.
Five years of intensive collaboration between researchers, clinicians, Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations, and government and non-government organisations have finally put the long-fought for goal of ending RHD within reach.
Climatic conditions are a key determinant of malaria transmission intensity, through their impacts on both the parasite and its mosquito vectors. Mathematical models relating climatic conditions to malaria transmission can be used to develop spatial maps of climatic suitability for malaria. These maps underpin efforts to quantify the distribution and burden of malaria in humans, enabling improved monitoring and control.
In the austral summer of 2021-2022, Australia experienced an unprecedented Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) outbreak, with detections over 3000 km south of previous occurrences. Given the limited knowledge of JEV transmission ecology in Australia, we developed geospatial models of transmission risk to support the public health response. We created time-varying habitat suitability models for suspected mosquito vectors and ardeid hosts using month-scaled occurrence and covariate data from 2000-2023.
Anemia constitutes a major global public health challenge among school-aged children with documented impacts on psychomotor development, academic achievement, susceptibility to infections, and long-term economic productivity. This study presents nationally representative findings on the prevalence and determinants of anemia among school children aged 5-16 years in mainland Tanzania.
