They contain the RNA helicase enzyme, which plays a crucial role in the viral genome replication process. This work aims to develop and screen a potential molecule that could function as a dengue virus (DENV) RNA helicase inhibitor.

- The study aimed to identify risk factors for community-acquired bacterial infections in infants under 2 months old in South Asia, which could help enhance prevention and antibiotic use.
- Five sites in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan analyzed data from mother-child pairs, employing advanced modeling techniques to determine potential causes of infections among infants with signs of serious bacterial infection.
- Key findings revealed that low birth weight, male sex, breathing issues at birth, premature rupture of membranes, and low socioeconomic status were significant risk factors associated with these infections.
Background: Systematic assessment of childhood asthma is challenging in low- and middle-income country (LMIC) settings due to the lack of standardised and validated methodologies. We describe the contextual challenges and adaptation strategies in the implementation of a community-based asthma assessment in four resource-constrained settings in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan.
Method: We followed a group of children of age 6-8 years for 12 months to record their respiratory health outcomes.
