Background
Rotavirus vaccines are moderately protective against illness in settings with high compared with low mortality rates. Vaccine effectiveness (VE) evaluations may clarify our understanding of these disparities, but estimates among key subpopulations and against rare outcomes are not available in many analyses due to sample size.

Fenitrothion is an organophosphorus insecticide widely used in Sahelian countries. However, fenitrothion undergoes rapid degradation, generating many by-products, the main one being 3-methyl-4-nitrophenol (MNP) known to be hazardous for humans and the environment. The intensive use of fenitrothion has led to environmental contamination, raisin(...)
