The purpose of this scoping review is to describe and summarise the rationale behind and methodological approaches used to conduct cascade-of-care analyses for TB infection in low-TB incidence countries.

This Reporting Protocol describes data collection for influenza, COVID-19, and other respiratory viruses (such as RSV or new viruses of public health concern) in the EU/EEA and wider WHO European Region. Data collection is integrated for most datasets in line with the operational considerations for respiratory virus surveillance in Europe.
This protocol describes the common methodology to be applied to established health data registries across seven participating EU/EEA Member States to estimate vaccine effectiveness for Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in children and adolescents aged 5-17 years old.
This protocol presents a common updated methodology to estimate vaccine effectiveness (VE) for COVID-19, using established health data registries in participating European Union and European Economic Area (EU/EEA) countries.
This joint guidance by the ECDC and EMCDDA aims to strengthen the evidence base for developing national strategies for preventing and controlling infections and infectious diseases among people who inject drugs.
This core protocol for ECDC studies of VE against hospitalisation with SARI laboratory-confirmed with SARS-CoV-2 or with influenza, version 3.0, represents an update to the main elements for a multi-country hospital-based study of COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness in patients hospitalised with SARI, initially published as version 1.0 [5], updated to version 2.0 [6].
