Global Seasonal Influenza Mortality Estimates: A Comparison of 3 Different Approaches

Vanessa Cozza et al.

Summary: A consultation was convened by the World Health Organization to understand differences in methodology of influenza mortality estimates, revealing that IHME's estimate was considerably lower; the greatest influenza-associated fold differences were observed in countries in Southeast Asia and the Eastern Mediterranean region.

Hospital utilization rates for influenza and RSV: a novel approach and critical assessment

Emily K. Johnson et al.

Summary: This study presents a new method to estimate hospital utilization rates for influenza and RSV, revealing a significant underestimation of influenza burden in older adults when using primary diagnoses alone. There remains considerable heterogeneity in influenza and RSV burden globally, with a need to address sources of variability and data quality in future applications.

Global burden of influenza-associated lower respiratory tract infections and hospitalizations among adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Kathryn E. Lafond et al.

Summary: This study aimed to estimate the global burden of influenza-associated hospitalizations among adults worldwide. The researchers conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis, finding that influenza was associated with 14% of acute respiratory hospitalizations in adults, with over 5 million cases annually. The findings emphasize the importance of influenza vaccination, especially for older adults, in preventing severe disease and hospitalizations.
