🚨 Breaking News! We’re proud to share that MDCF-2, developed by researchers from icddr,b and @WashU has been acknowledged in @TIME’s Best Invention of 2025 under the Social Impact category! 🔗Read more: time.com/collections/be… #TIMEBestInventions2025 #MDCF2
A new study — from a global team including icddr,b researchers — reports promising results from a trial of a novel vaccine against the diarrheal pathogen Shigella in an animal model, supporting further development of the vaccine and possibly human trials. cutt.ly/GrGWox8g
Wastewater surveillance can reveal an uptick in typhoid-causing bacteria 13 days before the rise of clinical cases. If applied to launching targeted typhoid vaccination campaigns, it could massively reduce hospitalizations, deaths, and associated costs. cutt.ly/3rGWgisT
🎥 What is Microbiota-Directed Complementary Food (MDCF-2)?How can it help restore gut health and promote growth in undernourished children? Dr Tahmeed Ahmed, Executive Director of icddr,b, explains.📷Watch here: youtu.be/srPSgkx8U80?si… #TIMEBestInventions2025 #icddrb #MDCF2

Gut Microbiota-Restoring Food for Undernourished Children – A TIME...
🥣If the gut microbiome influences obesity, could it also hold the key to undernutrition? —a discussion between two scientists from @icddr_b and @WashU led to #MDCF2, now helping undernourished children worldwide. Read more: icddrb.org/features/mdcf-… #TIMEBestInventions2025 #icddrb
Across eight countries, asymptomatic infections of the diarrheal pathogen Cryptosporidium occurred at a rate of 7.89 per 100 child-months, and were linked to stunting, wasting, and underweight — icddr,b scientists report in a new analysis of the MAL-ED (Malnutrition and Enteric…

                                            A new @PLOSGPH study sheds light on the mental health impact of extreme climate events, showing that flooding of compounds and latrine flooding are associated with higher depression among pregnant women living in riverine communities in rural Bangladesh. cutt.ly/3rGLeMra
Moderate to severe malnutrition is a more important risk factor for mortality than aflatoxin in acutely ill children, but aflatoxin exposure increases risk of mortality in the absence of acute malnutrition. Read more: cutt.ly/crGKUQzA
A new study identified 4 bacterial species that were significantly lower in abundance in typhoid fever patients compared with asymptomatic household contacts in Bangladesh & Malawi, suggesting they may protect against clinical infection following exposure to Salmonella Typhi.

                                            A recent study showed that rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) can replace traditional slide agglutination methods to confirm Vibrio cholerae colonies belonging to the dominant O1 serogroup, providing a cheaper & faster alternative in resource-limited settings. cutt.ly/urGKt5no
Stakeholders once again urge #Bangladesh to add the #rotavirus #vaccine to its National Immunisation Programme, citing the urgent need to protect children from severe diarrhoea and save thousands of young lives each year. 👉icddrb.org/news/stakehold…
                                            
                                            
                                            
                                            A @NatureComms study reports a novel genetic test that can distinguish between reinfection and relapse in individuals with recurrence of malarial infection by Plasmodium vivax. The test revealed a lower rate of relapse in patients treated with primaquine. cutt.ly/zrGWvXlZ
A multi-country study on diarrheal disease in under-5 children reported that indirect costs from diarrhea — like lost income and decreased productivity — tend to be higher than direct costs like doctor fees, medication, and patient transportation. cutt.ly/OrGl8E6R
Pig-to-human transmission can lead to Nipah outbreaks, and preventing infection in pigs may protect humans. A global team of researchers, including at icddr,b, recently reported promising results from a trial of 3 Nipah virus vaccines on Bangladeshi pigs. cutt.ly/urGlC8O8
