Objectives: Mobile health tools have potential to improve the diagnosis and management of acute lower respiratory illnesses (ALRI), a leading cause of paediatric mortality worldwide. The objectives were to evaluate health workers' perceptions of acceptability, usability and feasibility of Acute Lower Respiratory Illness Treatment and Evaluation (ALRITE), a novel mobile health tool to help frontline health workers diagnose, treat and provide education about ALRI in children <5 years.

is an Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk gene expressed in microglia. To study the role of in a mouse model of β-amyloidosis, we compared PS2APP transgenic mice versus PS2APP mice lacking (PS2APP;Trem2) at ages ranging from 4 to 22 months. Microgliosis was impaired in PS2APP;Trem2 mice, with -deficient microglia showing compromised expression of proliferation/Wnt-related genes and marked accumulation of ApoE.
