TL;DR: The spectrum of illness and the immunologic response produced by cholera in volunteers were studied and Titers of vibriocidal antibody rose after diarrhea, peaked the second week after challenge, and rapidly fell during the next four weeks.

TL;DR: The annual economic burden of diarrhoea in four subdistricts in Indonesia averaged $2.27 per child aged under 5 years when health centre, hospital, and private expenditures were all considered, and medication costs were for antimicrobial agents and iodochlorhydroxyquin in the private sector.

TL;DR: It is argued that these strategies might subvert two core principles of global health: that context matters and that social justice and equity are paramount and question the appropriateness of these particular strategies for less-resourced countries with distinct population structures, vastly different public health needs, immensely fewer health-care resources, less participatory governance, massive within-country inequities, and fragile economies.

TL;DR: An oral solution containing glucose, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium chloride or citrate was used as maintenance therapy for acute cholera, and patients who received the oral solution required 80% less intravenous fluids for cure.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated human immunity acquired after cholera or provided by choline vaccines and found that immunity, either naturally acquired or vaccine-induced, appeared to be directed against the vibrio rather than against the toxin.
