TL;DR: RSV incidence was highest in youngest and oldest age groups and oldest (>65–75 and > 75 years) age groups, with age distribution remaining stable over time, and the possibility of employing MEM to monitor RSV epidemics allows prospective, nearly real-time use of surveillance data.

Viruses

TL;DR: Using a model of primary human small alveolar epithelial cells, RSV infections are demonstrated to greatly alter cellular metabolism in favor of the glycolytic and pentose phosphate pathways, and this study contributes to the understanding of RSV-mediated changes to cellular metabolism.

TL;DR: Viruses are much more important in mild upper and middle respiratory tract infections and in bronchiolitis in children, whereas bacteria are the main cause of pneumonia, especially in adults.

TL;DR: Identifying meteorological conditions associated with seasonal RSV epidemics can improve understanding of virus transmission and assist planning for their impact upon the health sector, including timing of passive RSV immunoprophylaxis for high-risk infants and future public health interventions, such as maternal immunisation with RSV vaccines.

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.
