Is home management of fevers a cost-effective way of reducing under-five mortality in Africa?
Both AAQ and AAQ + AMX approaches were cost-effective, each averting one DALY at less than the standard US$ 150 threshold recommended by the World Health Organisation. However, AAQ was more cost-effective. Home management of under-five fevers in rural settings is cost-effective in reducing under-five mortality.
The results of the splicing assay suggest that inclusion of exon 3 in the mRNA is ESE dependent. The exon 3 ESE is not recognised by all available motif scoring matrices, highlighting the importance of RNA analysis in the detection of ESE disrupting mutations.
