Acute respiratory infections, shigellosis, diarrhoeal diseases.

(a) Infectious respiratory diseases such as acute respiratory infections and tuberculosis

The incidence of infections and diseases is a serious health issue in Honduras.

18. Infectious diseases, especially respiratory infections, diarrhoeal diseases and malaria, remain leading causes of child morbidity and mortality in Somalia.

Vaccination is recognized as the most cost effective means of controlling diseases, with the exception of respiratory infections and diarrhoeal diseases.

Programmes against leprosy, tuberculosis, river blindness (onchocerciasis), diarrhoeal diseases, acute respiratory infections, malaria, Buruli ulcers.

Such drugs are used for the treatment of cancer, HIV AIDS, drug resistant infections, and other diseases

The leading causes of infant deaths are perinatal disorders, low birth weight, birth asphyxia birth trauma, diseases of the respiratory system, parasitic diseases and intestinal infections.

Again this year, alimentary toxic infections are in the eighth place of the leading contagious diseases in the Federation.

The main causes of infant mortality continue to be malaria, acute respiratory infections, diarrhoea, malnutrition and vaccine preventable diseases.

The makeshift camps are extremely overcrowded, and outbreaks of malaria, cholera, typhoid, respiratory infections and other diseases may therefore result.

Acute respiratory infections and diarrhoeal diseases will continue to be treated as current illnesses in the context of Primary Health Care.

53. Diarrhoeal diseases, malaria and acute respiratory infections, combined with malnutrition, continued to be the major causes of mortality and morbidity.

Likewise, could information be provided on the high rates of HIV AIDS and infections from sexually transmitted diseases, and was it the case that such infections were spreading because of polygamy, promiscuity and low contraceptive use?

They included a) conditions that originated during the perinatal period b) acute respiratory infections (ARI) c) acute diarrhoeal diseases (ADD) and d) nutritional deficiencies.

1.112 To address the burden of death and disability caused by the emerging epidemic of non communicable diseases, particularly diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases, while simultaneously combating major infections which survived the 20th century, such as tuberculosis.

The proposed strategy also complements other major strategies, including the new UNICEF water, sanitation and hygiene strategies for 2006 2015 (E ICEF 2006 6) to reduce the impact of diarrhoeal diseases, parasitic infections and acute respiratory infections on child survival and undernutrition.

Strengthening the monitoring, evaluation and reporting systems of infections and responses of HIV AIDS and other blood borne diseases in the context of drug abuse prevention

Water, sanitation and hygiene are also linked to many other diseases that kill children or stunt their development, including helminth infections, dracunculiasis, trachoma, cholera, fluorosis and arsenicosis.

Thus, children in developing countries are exposed to a double health risk, one related to diseases of poverty such as diarrhoea, respiratory infections, malaria, measles, accidents, dengue fever and other related diseases of pollution, such as high blood levels and leukaemia.

Although deaths from vaccine preventable diseases have declined, malaria, diarrhoeal disease, child and maternal malnutrition, acute respiratory infections, unhealthy home environments and accidents contribute widely to child mortality.

Sexually transmissible infections

In 1994 the leading cause of outpatient visits by women was dental problems, followed by diseases of the genital organs, acute respiratory infections, skin and subcutaneous problems, and hypertension.

Educational reproduction programmes on the prevention of tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV AIDs, may also be supported, including skills on negotiating safe sex practices with partners.

Other sexually transmissible infections

STI' Sexually Transmitted Infections

The activities of the Control Centre for Special Infections which aim at women as a target group, are both informative, concerning prevention and combating AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Diseases by means of healthy sexual behaviour and use of women's condom, as well as supportive to Units of Special Infections in Hospitals.

Over the same period, morbidity with food poisoning and infections, salmonella poisoning and venereal diseases has dropped (from 5,800 cases in 1992 to 4,900 in 1993 the figures concern initial cases only).

This is of new infections.

These same infections create harmful algal blooms.

These infections are known as the Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs). They are unfamiliar to the developed world, and their names are often difficult to pronounce filariasis (elephantiasis), onchocerciasis (river blindness), schistosomiasis (bilharzia), and others, particularly intestinal worms.

This stems from the power of advocacy constituencies and the recognition that these diseases might threaten the developed world. As a result, these diseases receive a disproportionate amount of funding for research and control, while other infections kill, blind, deform, and disable many more the bottom billion who have little access to health care.

Kary Mullis' next gen cure for killer infections

This suggests an increased incidence in pelvic infections.

487. In order to prevent blood derived infections (including hepatitis B and AIDS) and hospital infections, immense importance has been attached to sterilization.

MORTALITY RATES BY SEX 277. In 1994, the 10 principal causes of female mortality were, in order of importance diabetes mellitus acute heart attacks pneumonia certain conditions originating in the perinatal period nutritional deficiencies nephritis, nephritic syndrome and kidney diseases cirrhosis and other chronic diseases of the liver congenital anomalies malignant tumours of the cervix and undefined intestinal infections.

The leading three contagious diseases in BiH are respiratory diseases (varicela), intestine diseases (influenza), children's contagious diseases (varicela), intestine disease (enterocolitis).

They had no pain, suffered none of the infections.

II. Annual number of new HIV infections, selected regions

With 4.3 million new HIV infections each year throughout the world, we face an untenable situation, as new HIV infections far outstrip our ability to treat all those infected. So improvements in our ability to prevent HIV infections from occurring are desperately needed.

And given the extraordinary amount of nosocomial infections, or hospital acquired infections, this is a clue that it's a good time to reconsider our current practices.

They can go into your skin and create skin infections.

But the extra bonuses that she gets is various infections, sexually transmitted infections, HIV, AIDS, syphilis, gonorrhea, you name it, substance abuse, drugs, everything under the sun.

Less commonly reported were efforts to control other infections and parasites.
