TL;DR: In this assembled sample of 24-month-old children, the proportion of stunting attributed to or=2% of the time before 24 years was 18%, consistent with the hypothesis that a higher cumulative burden of diarrhoeas increases the risk of Stunting.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Analyzing population-based data collected over 30 years in more than 18,000 patients with invasive pneumococcal infection, Zitta Harboe and colleagues find specific pneumococCal serotypes to be associated with increased mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
