Background: Urine is an attractive biospecimen for nutritional status and population health surveys. It is an excellent non-invasive alternative to blood for appropriate biomarkers in young children and is suitable for home-based collection, enabling representative collections across a population. However, the bulk of literature in this population is restricted to collection in primary care settings.

Background: Foals suffer from total failure to transfer passive immunity (TFTPI) when serum immunoglobulin (IgG) is <4 g/L, and partial failure to transfer passive immunity (PFTPI) when serum IgG is 4-8 g/L.
Objectives: To explore risk factors for poor serum IgG concentration.
Study Design: Retrospective observational study.

Introduction: National surveillance efforts have reported rural-urban disparities in childhood vaccination coverage by metropolitan statistical area designations, measured at the county level. This study's objective was to quantify vaccination trends using more discrete measures of coverage and rurality than prior work.
Methods: Serial, cross-sectional analyses of National Immunization Survey-Child restricted-use data collected in 2015-2021 for US children born 2014-2018 were conducted.

Background Hemimegalencephaly (HME) is a rare congenital disorder that is initiated during embryonic development with abnormal growth of one hemisphere. Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), a genetic disorder, is rarely associated with HME. Methods We present a case of a newborn with HME with a confirmed mutation in the TSC-1 gene and describe the clinical course, findings on (amplitude integrated) electroencephalography (aEEG), cranial ultrasound (CUS), MRI, and the postmortem evaluation.

Background: The underlying causes for lower rotavirus vaccine effectiveness (VE) in high-child-mortality settings are not well understood. Uganda introduced the human monovalent G1P[8] rotavirus vaccine (Rotarix) in June 2018. We determined the effectiveness of Rotarix against rotavirus diarrhea requiring hospital care among Ugandan children.
