An evaluation of the performance and usability of a measles IgM rapid diagnostic test within the Uganda national surveillance program using capillary blood and oral fluid samples
Performance of a prototype measles IgM rapid diagnostic test (RDT) was evaluated during suspected measles outbreaks in Uganda. Oral fluid (OF), capillary blood (CAP) and serum samples were collected from participants. OF and CAP were tes...

County-level differences in Salmonella incidence across urban and rural United States, 2011–2023
Salmonella is a leading cause of foodborne illness in the United States, yet rural–urban differences in incidence and their underlying drivers remain poorly characterized. We conducted an ecological analysis of deidentified probable and ...
