2% [-3.6, +6.3]; qXRv2: -13.4% [-21.5, -6.6]); between smear-negative and smear-positive tuberculosis was: CAD4TBv6, -12.3% [-19.5, -6.1]; Lunit, -17.2% [-24.6, -10.5]; qXRv2, -16.6% [-24.4, -9.9]. Accuracy [...] pooled specificities were: CAD4TBv6, 56.9% [95%CI:51.7-61.9]; Lunit, 54.1% [44.6-63.3]; qXRv2, 60.5% [51.7-68.6]).

Investigating the association between long-term exposure to air pollution and greenness with mortality from neurological, cardio-metabolic and chronic... (Publications)
collected socioeconomic and mortality data for 1035 municipal units from the 2011 Census. Annual PM2.5, NO2, BC and O3 concentrations for 2010 were predicted at 100x100m grids by hybrid land use regression [...] We assessed interactions between pollutants and greenness. An interquartile range increase in PM2.5, NO2 and BC was associated with increased risk in mortality from diseases of the nervous system (relative [...] 1.14, 95% CI: 1.10, 1.18); 1.02 (95% CI: 1.01, 1.04); 1.02 (95% CI: 1.00,...
A cohort study of survival following discharge from hospital in rural Tanzanian children using linked data of admissions with community-based... (Publications)
surveillance were used to describe post-discharge mortality and survival probability in children aged < 5 years, by age group and cause of admission. Cox regression models were developed to identify risk factors [...] RESULTS: Between March 2003 and March 2007, demographic surveillance included 28,910 children aged 0 to 5 years and among them 831 (3%) were admitted at least once to the district hospital. From all the children [...] years and 1381 deaths were observed in 24 months of follow up....
