Severe Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection in Hospitalized Children

Archives of Medical Research

TL;DR: Infants with RSV infection were younger, were diagnosed with bronchiolitis more frequently, and were less likely to have underlying disorders than those withRSV-negative LRTI, and admission to the ICU was associated with the presence of underlying conditions, pneumonia diagnosis, and young age.

TL;DR: This paper examines eight published reviews each reporting results from several related trials in order to evaluate the efficacy of a certain treatment for a specified medical condition and suggests a simple noniterative procedure for characterizing the distribution of treatment effects in a series of studies.

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study provides a comprehensive assessment of all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1980 to 2015, finding several countries in sub-Saharan Africa had very large gains in life expectancy, rebounding from an era of exceedingly high loss of life due to HIV/AIDS.

TL;DR: Mortality data suggest that RSV is an important cause of death in childhood from ALRI, after pneumococcal pneumonia and Haemophilus influenzae type b, and the development of novel prevention and treatment strategies should be accelerated as a priority.
