Urgently seeking efficiency and sustainability of clinical trials in global health.
This paper shows the scale of global health research and the context in which we frame the subsequent papers in the Series.
The role and challenges of cluster randomised trials for global health.
Evaluating whether an intervention works when trialled in groups of individuals can pose complex challenges for clinical research.
Randomised trials at the level of the individual.
In global health research, short-term, small-scale clinical trials with fixed, two-arm trial designs that generally do not allow for major changes throughout the trial are the most common study design.
AMR in low-resource settings: Médecins Sans Frontières bridges surveillance gaps by developing a turnkey solution, the Mini-Lab.

Impact of systematic early tuberculosis detection using Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra in children with severe pneumonia in high tuberculosis burden countries (TB-Speed pneumonia): a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial.
BACKGROUND: In high tuberculosis (TB) burden settings, there is growing evidence that TB is common in children with pneumonia, the leading cause of death in children under 5 years worldwide.
