    Mapping the endemicity and seasonality of clinical malaria for intervention targeting in Haiti using routine case data

    Ewan Cameron, Alyssa J Young ... Katherine E Battle
    A demonstration of the power of routine case data and statistical modelling to guide the allocation of anti-malarial interventions in a resource-constrained setting.

    Reducing societal impacts of SARS-CoV-2 interventions through subnational implementation

    Mark M Dekker, Luc E Coffeng ... Sake J de Vlas
    An agent-based, population-scale, geographically explicit model, and integration of comprehensive data sources on demography, mobility, interactions and SARS-CoV-2 parameters, show that subnational implementations of intervention measures may provide better strategic choices for controlling future epidemics.

    A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies of childhood wheezing phenotypes identifies ANXA1 as a susceptibility locus for persistent wheezing

    Raquel Granell, John A Curtin ... Adnan Custovic
    Using unique data from five longitudinal UK birth cohorts, four distinct subsets of genetic variants were identified as differentially associated across wheezing phenotypes from infancy to adolescence with little evidence of genetic associations spanning across different phenotypes.

    Conjunction of factors triggering waves of seasonal influenza

    Ishanu Chattopadhyay, Emre Kiciman ... Andrey Rzhetsky
    Three complementary computational approaches reveal a set of putative causes of initiation of pan-USA waves of influenza.

    Atypical cognitive training-induced learning and brain plasticity and their relation to insistence on sameness in children with autism

    Jin Liu, Hyesang Chang ... Vinod Menon
    Learning in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was achieved by fundamentally different cognitive and neural mechanisms from typically developing children, and insistence on sameness, a core symptom of ASD, contributed to such atypical mechanisms of learning in affected children.

    A universal reading network and its modulation by writing system and reading ability in French and Chinese children

    Xiaoxia Feng, Irene Altarelli ... Ghislaine Dehaene-Lambertz
    A cross-cultural study of reading acquisition and reading irmpairment reveals the invariance of the neural correlates of reading across cultures.

    Association of genetic variation in COL11A1 with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

    Hao Yu, Anas M Khanshour ... Carol A Wise
    Variation in type XI collagen alters estrogen-dependent signaling in the extracellular matrix and is identified as a genetic risk factor for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, a common childhood deformity.

    Effect of an enhanced public health contact tracing intervention on the secondary transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in educational settings: The four-way decomposition analysis

    Olivera Djuric, Elisabetta Larosa ... The Reggio Emilia Covid-19 Working Group
    Prompt contact tracing (testing at the beginning instead of at the end of isolation period) of individuals with COVID-19 in the community reduces delays in contact tracing, increases identification of source of infection, and reduces transmission rates in educational settings.

    Multiple introductions of multidrug-resistant typhoid associated with acute infection and asymptomatic carriage, Kenya

    Samuel Kariuki, Zoe A Dyson ... Gordon Dougan
    Carriage of MDR S. Typhi H58 sublineages that also cause acute disease provides understanding of the transmission dynamics of typhoid fever and maintenance of local pathogen populations in Kenya children.
