International Health research conducted under extreme conditions in low-income countries may lead to a better understanding of epidemics in high-income countries, by questioning assumptions which are important in these countries. Examples are given of how observations in Guinea-Bissau have led to reinterpretation of the decline in measles mortality, of the polio model, and of the impact of stopping vaccinations after eradication in the industrialised countries.
在低收入国家极端条件下开展的国际卫生研究，通过质疑在高收入国家具有重要意义的假设，可能会增进对高收入国家流行病的了解。文中列举了一些例子，说明几内亚比绍的观察结果如何促使人们重新解读麻疹死亡率下降情况、脊髓灰质炎模型以及工业化国家根除疾病后停止疫苗接种的影响。
