Silver Russel syndrome in an aboriginal patient from AustraliaWe report a 4-year-old Australian Aboriginal girl who was born at 32 weeks gestation with features strongly suggestive of Silver-Russell syndrome
Research
Early developmental risk for subsequent childhood mental disorders in an Australian population cohortWe examined associations between developmental vulnerability profiles determined at the age of 5 years and subsequent childhood mental illness between ages 6 and 13 years in an Australian population cohort.
Research
Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim (Cotrimoxazole) for Skin and Soft Tissue Infections Including Impetigo, Cellulitis, and AbscessWe conducted a systematic review of clinical trials and observational studies that address the utility of SXT for SSTI treatment, caused by either GAS or MRSA
Research
Genome-Wide Analysis of Genetic Risk Factors for Rheumatic Heart Disease in Aboriginal Australians Provides Support for Pathogenic Molecular MimicryRheumatic heart disease (RHD) after group A streptococcus (GAS) infections is heritable and prevalent in Indigenous populations. Molecular mimicry between human and GAS proteins triggers proinflammatory cardiac valve-reactive T cells.
Research
Role of viral and bacterial pathogens in causing pneumonia among Western Australian children: A case-control study protocolWe aim to determine the contribute of bacteria and virus to childhood CAP to inform further development of effective strategies.
Research
Rationale and methods of a randomized controlled trial of immunogenicity, safety and impact on carriage of pneumococcal conjugate and polysaccharide vaccines in infants in Papua New GuineaVaccination trials in high endemicity areas are needed to provide evidence and guidance on idea strategies to protect children in these areas against infections
Research
Risk of Mortality into Adulthood According to Gestational Age at BirthTo quantify the independent risks of neonatal, postneonatal, 1 to 5 and 6 to 30 year mortality by gestational age and investigate changes in survival over time.
