Two RSV Platforms for G, F, or G+F Proteins VLPs.

TL;DR: Data show that these RSV VLP platforms provide a tool to study the structure of F and G and their interactions and flexible platforms to develop VLP vaccines in which all components contribute to RSV-specific immune responses.

Identification of erythroid cell positive blood transcriptome phenotypes associated with severe respiratory syncytial virus infection

TL;DR: It is posit that the erythrocyte module is linked to an overabundance of immunosuppressive erythroid cells that might underlie progression to severe RSV infection and outline potential priority areas for biomarker development and investigations into the immune biology of RSV infections.

Virus-Like Particle Vaccines Against Respiratory Viruses and Protozoan Parasites

TL;DR: The field of vaccinology underwent massive advances over the past decades with the introduction of virus-like particles (VLPs), a supra-molecular nanoparticle vaccine platform that resembles viral structures without the ability to replicate in hosts.

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.

Global, regional, and national causes of child mortality in 2000-13, with projections to inform post-2015 priorities: an updated systematic analysis.

TL;DR: The authors' projection results provide concrete examples of how the distribution of child causes of deaths could look in 15-20 years to inform priority setting in the post-2015 era.
