Rheumatic Heart Disease Control Programs, Registers, and Access to Care

This chapter outlines the evidence and evolution of RHD control programs and draws conclusions about priorities following the 2018 World Health Organization Global Resolution on rheumatic fever and RHD.

Acute Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Heart Disease, 1st Edition

Acute Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Heart Disease is a concise, yet comprehensive, clinical resource highlighting must-know information on rheumatic heart disease and acute rheumatic fever from a global perspective

Understanding acute burn injury as a chronic disease

The review will outline evidence of long-term health effects, possible mechanisms linking burn injury to long-term health and current research into burns as a chronic disease

Implications of asymptomatic carriers for infectious disease transmission and control

For pathogens such as Staph. A and Streptococcus P., some hosts may carry the pathogen and transmit it to others, yet display no symptoms themselves.

Global, regional, & national burden of rheumatic heart disease, 1990-2015

We estimated the global disease prevalence of and mortality due to rheumatic heart disease over a 25-year period

Epigenetic modifications: Mechanisms of disease and biomarkers of food allergy

The rise in IgE-mediated food allergy in recent times is the likely result of gene-environment interactions mediated via epigenetic pathways.

‘Boom Boom’ goes the beat towards ending rheumatic heart disease

A song written by kids in Barunga as part of the END RHD Communities Project is helping prevent the spread of infections that cause rheumatic heart disease in remote Aboriginal Communities.

Difficult journey for Tahlea after fight back from disease

At just six months old, Tahlea Dalgety was flown from Geraldton to Perth with a slim chance of survival after contracting meningococcal disease.

Replicating hypergraph disease dynamics with lower-order interactions

Disease spreading models such as the ubiquitous SIS compartmental model and its numerous variants are widely used to understand and predict the behavior of a given epidemic or information diffusion process. A common approach to imbue more realism to the spreading process is to constrain simulations to a network structure, where connected nodes update their disease state based on pairwise interactions along the edges of their local neighborhood.
