Advances in Vaccines to Prevent Viral Respiratory Illnesses in ChildrenChildhood vaccination has played a critical role in the reduction of morbidity and mortality from communicable diseases, including specific respiratory pathogens
Research
Record linkage study of the pathogen-specific burden of respiratory viruses in childrenReliance on hospital discharge diagnosis codes alone will likely underestimate the burden of respiratory viruses
Research
Nasopharyngeal density of respiratory viruses in childhood pneumonia in a highly vaccinated setting: findings from a case-control studyDetection of pneumonia-causing respiratory viruses in the nasopharynx of asymptomatic children has made their actual contribution to pneumonia unclear. We compared nasopharyngeal viral density between children with and without pneumonia to understand if viral density could be used to diagnose pneumonia.
