Background: Syphilis is re-emerging, with recent increases in congenital infections. While cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) evaluation can inform management, specimen collection requires technical skill and the interpretation of indices is nuanced. We sought to understand the practical value of CSF indices as an evaluation tool among neonates exposed to syphilis in utero.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Partnering for Vaccine Equity program was developed during the COVID-19 public health emergency to fund more than 500 community-based organizations working to improve vaccine equity. Organizations were supported by a virtual learning community where members received tailored learning content, peer-to-peer learning opportunities, and resources that facilitated deployment of vaccine-related programming during a dynamic pandemic. Process evaluation metrics indicate successful implementation of the learning community.

Background: Hospital studies suggest that scrub typhus is a leading cause of severe undifferentiated fever in regions across Asia where the disease is endemic, but the population-based incidence of infection and illness has been little studied.
Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study to assess epidemiologic and clinical characteristics of scrub typhus in 37 villages in Tamil Nadu, India, where the disease is highly endemic. Study participants were visited every 6 to 8 weeks over a period of 2 years; a venous blood sample was obtained from those who had had fever since the last visit.

Recently, SLIT2 has been shown to directly enhance bacterial killing by macrophages, but the effects of SLIT2 on inflammatory activation of macrophages are less known.
