Background: Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) reduced invasive disease, but the overall prevalence of pneumococcal nasopharyngeal colonization among children has not changed significantly. Our knowledge of which serotypes, once colonized, hold a higher likelihood to cause invasive disease is limited.
Methods: Serotype-specific invasive capacity (IC) of Streptococcus pneumoniae was estimated using an enhanced population-based invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) surveillance in children <7 years of age in Massachusetts and surveillance of nasopharyngeal (NP) colonization in selected Massachusetts communities in corresponding respiratory seasons.

Background: Postneonatal cerebral palsy (PNCP) is rare and requires large databases to be studied over time.
Objectives: To study the time trend of prevalence of PNCP overall and by cause, and to describe the clinical characteristics of children with PNCP according to cause and compared with children with pre/peri/neonatal CP (PPNCP).
Methods: The Surveillance of Cerebral Palsy in Europe (SCPE) database was used.
This study aimed to evaluate the annual pollution characteristics of trichloromethane (TCM) in Kunshan City's tap water from 2016 to 2022. This research analyzed 566 tap water samples from centralized water supply units, utilizing the GB 5749-2006 Sanitary Standard for Drinking Water as the evaluation benchmark. Data analysis employed non-parametric tests and Spearman's correlation analysis using Excel 2017 and SPSS 26.

Infections by carbapenemase-producing (CP-Pa) are concerning due to limited treatment options. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) high-risk clones is an essential driver in the global rise of CP-Pa. Insights into the molecular epidemiology of CP-Pa are crucial to understanding its clinical and public health impact.
