    Abstract : Background: While substantial progress has been made globally towards achieving United Nations Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG 4) on child mortality, the decline is not sufficient to reach the targets set for 2015. The South Asian region, which includes India, was to achieve the MDG 4 target of 39 deaths per 1000 live births by 2015 but was estimated to have reached only 61 by 2011. READ MORE

  7. 5. A mouse model for direct evaluation of cholera vaccines

    Author : Erik Nygren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Vibrio cholerae; cholera vaccine; cholera toxin; LPS; anti-bacterial immunity; IgA; challenge; protection; colonization;

    Abstract : Cholera continues to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality in large parts of the developing world and is a significant negative factor for economic development. Vibrio cholerae bacteria of the O1 or O139 serogroup can cause disease due to their ability to colonize the intestine and produce an enterotoxin, cholera toxin (CT). READ MORE
