Excerpt from Am bic or Tropical Dysentery: Its Complimentary and Treatment Since Baly chose dysentery as the subject for the Goulstonian Lectures, sixty years ago, there have been many revolutionary changes in our conceptions of disease. At that time dysentery was still prevalent in Great Britain, smouldering for the most part in the slums and hovels of the poorer classes, but occasionally blazing out into virulent epidemics which attacked all sections and grades of society. Thanks to hygienic reform and progress, domestic interest in the condition has considerably narrowed; for, although infection still lurks in the western districts of Scotland and Ireland, and lingers with a strange persistence in many of our most efficient lunatic asylums, dysentery has been practically banished from the general life of England. From an Imperial and Colonial point of view, however, the study of this disease still remains a subject of pre-eminent importance. The recent development of industrial and agricultural activities in our tropical possessions and the increased facilities for communication have resulted in an enormous demand for the services of Europeans, and within the last thirty years the white population has multiplied five-fold. Of the protean climatic diseases which they have still to face, dysentery is second in prevalence only to malaria, and from all classes and races it annually claims an appalling number of victims.

The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.
