No currently licensed and available vaccine has been shown to provide broad protection against endemic MnB disease.

Progress toward a global Group A streptococcal vaccine

The desire for an effective vaccine arises from the large burden of disease caused by the bacterium, particularly rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease.

Factors associated with respiratory morbidity in children, adolescents and young adults with cerebral palsy

The primary aim of this study is to identify the predictors and prevalence of severe respiratory disease in children, adolescents and young adults with CP.

Preventing urinary tract infections in early childhood

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is common in children, causes them considerable discomfort, as well as distress to parents and has a tendency to recur.
