    Climate change and malaria: temperatures without fevers? (2000)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2000-09-23
    Description: As the world gets warmer, the predictions about the spread of vector-based diseases such as malaria get gloomier. However, in their timely Perspective, Dye and Reiter explain the implications of a new climate model (Randolph and Rogers), which predicts that the distribution of malaria is unlikely to change dramatically in the next 50 years even if the world does get hotter.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dye, C -- Reiter, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Sep 8;289(5485):1697-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Communicable Diseases Control, Prevention and Eradication, World Health Organization (WHO), 1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland. dyec@who.ch〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11001735" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Erasing the world's slow stain: strategies to beat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-03-16
    Description: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR) is perceived as a growing hazard to human health worldwide. Judgments about the true scale of the problem, and strategies for containing it, need to come from a balanced appraisal of the epidemiological evidence. We conclude in this review that MDR is, and will probably remain, a locally severe problem; that epidemics can be prevented by fully exploiting the potential of standard short-course chemotherapy (SCC) based on cheap and safe first-line drugs; and that best-practice SCC may even reduce the incidence of MDR where it has already become endemic. On the basis of the available, imperfect data, we recommend a three-part response to the threat of MDR: widespread implementation of SCC as the cornerstone of good tuberculosis control, improved resistance testing and surveillance, and the careful introduction of second-line drugs after a sound evaluation of cost, effectiveness, and feasibility.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dye, Christopher -- Williams, Brian G -- Espinal, Marcos A -- Raviglione, Mario C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Mar 15;295(5562):2042-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Communicable Diseases, World Health Organization, CH-1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland. dyec@who.int〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11896268" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Antiretroviral drugs for tuberculosis control in the era of HIV/AIDS (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-08-16
    Description: Human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) has dramatically increased the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) in subSaharan Africa, where up to 60% of TB patients are coinfected with HIV and each year 200,000 TB deaths are attributable to HIV coinfection. Now HIV threatens control of TB in Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America. Antiretroviral (ARV) drugs can prevent TB by preserving immunity, but cohort analysis shows that early therapy, plus high levels of coverage and compliance, will be needed to avert a significant fraction of TB cases. However, ARV drugs could enhance the treatment of TB, and TB programs provide an important entry point for the treatment of HIV/AIDS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Williams, Brian G -- Dye, Christopher -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Sep 12;301(5639):1535-7.

    Health and urban living (2008)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-02-09
    Description: The majority of people now live in urban areas and will do so for the foreseeable future. As a force in the demographic and health transition, urbanization is associated with falling birth and death rates and with the shift in burden of illness from acute childhood infections to chronic, noncommunicable diseases of adults. Urban inhabitants enjoy better health on average than their rural counterparts, but the benefits are usually greater for the rich than for the poor, thus magnifying the differences between them. Subject to better evidence, I suggest that the main obstacles to improving urban health are not technical or even financial, but rather are related to governance and the organization of civil society.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dye, Christopher -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2008 Feb 8;319(5864):766-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1150198.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉World Health Organization, 1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland. dyec@who.int〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18258905" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
