  • Continuing to be cautious

    Open AccessTomoka Nakamura, Ryo Kinoshita et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Despite implementing no lockdowns and having a large elderly population, Japan had a low mortality rate due to COVID-19 compared to Europe and North America. The extent to which policies impacted person-to-person contact remains unclear. In this study, we examined changes in contact patterns and their association with behaviors and governmental recommendations in Japan during the pandemic. Ten social contact surveys were conducted between 2021 an…

  • Public perspectives on Covid-19 public health and social measures in Japan and the United Kingdom

    Open AccessSaki Kawamitsu, Tin Zar Win et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    Similar and contrasting views on PHSM against COVID-19 between Japan and the UK demonstrated how policies in controlling an epidemic should be tailored by country with respect to its norms, cultures, economic and disease burden. Our findings may guide how policy makers can engage with the public through effective health communication and consider regulations that are aligned with the public's views and capacities in changing their behavior for fu…

  • Rotavirus genotypes in children under five years hospitalized with diarrhea in low and middle-income countries

    Open AccessSebastien Antoni, Tomoka Nakamura et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Rotavirus is the most common pathogen causing pediatric diarrhea and an important cause of morbidity and mortality in low- and middle-income countries. Previous evidence suggests that the introduction of rotavirus vaccines in national immunization schedules resulted in dramatic declines in disease burden but may also be changing the rotavirus genetic landscape and driving the emergence of new genotypes. We report genotype data of more than 16,000…

  • Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance in 2019

    Open AccessChristopher J L Murray, Kevin S Ikuta et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2022

    BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major threat to human health around the world. Previous publications have estimated the effect of AMR on incidence, deaths, hospital length of stay, and health-care costs for specific pathogen-drug combinations in select locations. To our knowledge, this study presents the most comprehensive estimates of AMR burden to date. METHODS: We estimated deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) a…

  • Aetiology and incidence of diarrhoea requiring hospitalisation in children under 5 years of age in 28 low-income and middle-income countries

    Open AccessAdam L Cohen, James A Platts-Mills et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    Introduction Diarrhoea remains a leading cause of child morbidity and mortality. Systematically collected and analysed data on the aetiology of hospitalised diarrhoea in low-income and middle-income countries are needed to prioritise interventions. Methods We established the Global Pediatric Diarrhea Surveillance network, in which children under 5 years hospitalised with diarrhoea were enrolled at 33 sentinel surveillance hospitals in 28 low-inco…
