TL;DR: Subclinical infection and quantity of pathogens, particularly Shigella, enteroaggregative E coli, Campylobacter, and Giardia, had a substantial negative association with linear growth, which was sustained during the first 2 years of life, and in some cases, to 5 years.

TL;DR: Quantitative molecular diagnostics improved estimates of pathogen-specific burdens of childhood diarrhoea in the community setting and created aetiology prediction scores using clinical characteristics that could improve the management of diarrhoee in these low-resource settings.

TL;DR: The MAL-ED study represents a novel analytical framework and explicitly evaluates multiple putative EE pathways in combination and using an unprecedented quantity of data to demonstrate that enteric infection alters both fecal markers of inflammation and permeability.

TL;DR: Overall, the findings demonstrate an inhibitory effect of co- Administered OPV on the first dose of Rotarix, consistent with previous studies, but in the context of OPV co-administration the authors did not find a strong association between other components of the intestinal microbiota at the time of vaccination andRotarix immunogenicity.

TL;DR: In this population, the immune response to Rotarix was not enhanced by withholding breastfeeding around the time of vaccination, and Maternal anti-rotavirus antibodies explained little of the variability in theimmune response to the vaccine.
