Journal ArticleDOI

Estimates of the global, regional, and national morbidity, mortality, and aetiologies of diarrhoea in 195 countries: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016

Christopher Troeger, +128 more
- 01 Nov 2018 - 
TL;DR: Substantial progress has been made globally in reducing the burden of diarrhoeal diseases, driven by decreases in several primary risk factors, however, this reduction has not been equal across locations, and burden among adults older than 70 years requires attention.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of the global burden, novel diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccine targets for cryptosporidium

William Checkley, +26 more
- 01 Jan 2015 - 
TL;DR: Use of cryptosporidium genomes has helped to identify promising therapeutic targets, and drugs are in development, but methods to assess the efficacy in vitro and in animals are not well standardised.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathogen-specific burdens of community diarrhoea in developing countries: a multisite birth cohort study (MAL-ED).

James A Platts-Mills, +36 more
- 01 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: The findings suggest that although single-pathogen strategies have an important role in the reduction of the burden of severe diarrhoea disease, the effect of such interventions on total diarrhoeal incidence at the community level might be limited.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global, regional, national, and selected subnational levels of stillbirths, neonatal, infant, and under-5 mortality, 1980-2015: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015

Haidong Wang, +613 more
- 08 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study provides an analytical framework to comprehensively assess trends for under-5 mortality, age-specific and cause-specific mortality among children under 5 years, and stillbirths by geography over time and decomposed the changes in under- 5 mortality to changes in SDI at the global level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rotavirus Vaccination and the Global Burden of Rotavirus Diarrhea Among Children Younger Than 5 Years.

Christopher Troeger, +26 more
- 01 Oct 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that prioritizing vaccine introduction and interventions to reduce diarrhea-associated morbidity and mortality is necessary in the continued global reduction of rotavirus infection.
