Abstract:
Background: Tonsillectomy is among the most common operations performed on children in the UK. Yet little was known about the socio-demographic profile of children who undergo the operation and how the recent decline in tonsillectomy rates has influenced the rates of severe acute throat infections (ATI). Many children with mild ATI disease also undergo tonsillectomy despite a lack of evidence of its benefit in this group, particularly in the longer-term. The aims of this thesis were to characterise the socio-demographic profile of children who undergo tonsillectomy and investigate the clinical

Abstract:
Mosquito-borne viruses, such as dengue virus (DENV), Zika virus (ZIKV), chikungunya virus (CHIKV), yellow fever virus (YFV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), and West Nile virus (WNV) are major threats to global public health resulting in millions of infections and hundreds of thousands of deaths annually. The presence of these viruses and their increasing emergence/spread continues to escalate. Notably, Usutu virus (USUV; Genus: Flavivirus; Family: Flaviviridae) is one such pathogen currently causing mass die-offs of avian hosts throughout Europe. USUV is categorized in the Japanese Enc

Abstract:
The Medicago truncatula - Sinorhizobium meliloti symbiosis leads to the development ofa novel plant organ on the root, known as the nodule. Within the nodule are cells infected with differentiated rhizobia which are capable of converting atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia, a reduced form of nitrogen which can be utilised by plants. The rhizobia provide the host with a supply of reduced nitrogen, and in return the plants provide a carbon source on which the rhizobia survive, and a lowoxygen environment suitable for nitrogen fixation.

Abstract:
Background Arboviral diseases are one of the most common causes of acute febrile illness (AFI) and a significant health problem in South America. In Peru, laboratory etiologic identification of these infections occurs in less than 50% of cases, leading to underdiagnoses of important emerging arboviruses. Aim To assess the prevalence of the Dengue (DENV), Oropouche (OROV), Chikungunya (CHIKV), Mayaro (MAYV) and Zika (ZIKV) viruses in patients with acute febrile illness from Puerto Maldonado (Peru).

Objective: To describe frequency and clinical characteristics of MAYV infection in Piura, as well as the association of this pathogen with DENV. Results: A total of 86/496 (17.3%) cases of MAYV were detected, of which 54 were MAYV mono-infection and 32 were co-infection with DENV, accounting for 10.9% and 6.4%, respectively. When evaluating monoinfection by MAYV the main groups were 18–39 and 40–59 years old, with 25.9% and 20.4% respectively. Co-infections were more common in the age group 18–39 and those > 60 years old, with 34.4% and 21.9%, respectively. The most frequent clinical presentat

Abstract:
Australia has a highly endemic freshwater fish fauna that is threatened by climate change and a number of other anthropogenic processes. Climate change represents a major threat to freshwater fishes, directly through increasing water temperature and decreasing water flow, and indirectly by exacerbating existing stressors, such as infectious disease. This study investigated the interactive effects of increasing water temperature and infectious diseases on two freshwater parasite/host systems: (1) western pygmy perch, Nannoperca vittata, an endemic temperate species to south-western Australia, i

Abstract:
The United States has been increasingly concerned with the transnational threat posed by infectious diseases. Effective policy implementation to contain the spread of these diseases requires active engagement and support of the American public. To influence American public opinion and enlist support for related domestic and foreign policies, both domestic agencies and international organizations have framed infectious diseases as security threats, human rights disasters, economic risks, and as medical dangers.

Abstract:
This study evaluates the roles of temperature variability and disease awareness in the emergence of Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis). Chagas disease is endemic in Latin America and primarily spreads to humans directly via the triatomine vector. Hosts for most triatomine species are mainly rodents and occasionally dogs. The disease itself is caused by a parasitic protozoan, Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) which is found in the triatomineâ s feces and is often spread while the triatomine is consuming a blood meal.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the Influenza A/H5N1 virus in action through an ethnographic study focused on the entwined concepts of risk and modernity. The objective is to explain why the response to the virus has been challenged in Indonesia. Concerned with policy formulation, and everyday practice, the thesis argues that assemblages of historical, political, institutional and knowledge‐power processes create multiple hybrid constructions of risk and modernity, which challenge technical responses based on epistemological positions and institutional arrangements that do not allow for such hybridity.

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a major opportunistic pathogen that causes a variety of infections in the respiratory tract, including community-acquired pneumonia, acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and otitis media. Collectively, these infections and subse-quent complications impose a significant global burden of disease. The impact of NTHi-associated disease is further amplified by the rapidly expanding spectrum and prevalence of antibiotic resistance, and the lack of an effective vaccination strategy.

Abstract:
Microbial infection of eggs was originally investigated in terms of human health only. Recently, however, it was found that it can also cause early embryo mortality in birds, mainly through trans-shell infection prior to incubation. Trans-shell infection is highly dependent upon environmental conditions, egg temperature and egg properties such as shell quality and antimicrobial defences. Microbial infection of eggs is more likely to occur in synchronously incubating species as first laid eggs can be exposed for up to several days prior to full incubation.
