Research

Epidemiology of invasive fungal infections in immunocompromised children; an Australian national 10-year review

Non-Aspergillus molds and non-albicans Candida contributed substantially to pediatric invasive fungal infection in our study

Research

Factors associated with adherence to antimicrobial stewardship after-hours

Restricted antimicrobials acquired after-hours are not routinely antimicrobial stewardship adherent at the time of acquisition or the next standard working day

Research

Mothers’ understanding of infant feeding guidelines and their associated practices: A qualitative analysis

The findings indicated that in spite of continued promotion of the AIFG over the past ten years achieving the around six months guideline is challenging

Trial refresh: A case for an adaptive platform trial for pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis

This review will discuss the necessary steps required for a Bayesian adaptive platform trial to optimize treatment of pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis

Research

Determinants for progression from asymptomatic infection to symptomatic visceral leishmaniasis: A cohort study

We confirmed the strong association between high DAT and/or rK39 titers and progression to disease among asymptomatic subjects

Research

Trends and predictors of extreme preterm birth: Western Australian population-based cohort study

Research

A Diagnosis for All Rare Genetic Diseases: The Horizon and the Next Frontiers

There is a critical need for the field to develop and implement strategies to understand the mechanisms underlying all rare diseases and translate these to clinical care

Research

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.
