Abstrakt:	(1) Shigella spp. (Shigella) is known for causing dysentery with blood in stool, but most children infected with Shigella have non-dysentery Shigella-associated diarrhea (NDSD). The World Health Organization recommends the use of antibiotics when diarrhea is bloody, leaving most NDSD cases untreated. The absence of dysentery may not indicate a low risk of death and severe morbidity. Rapid diagnosis and treatment of shigellosis in vulnerable, young children may be lifesaving. INSIGHT aims to determine the potential benefit of identifying NDSD cases (n = 296) and their outcomes compared to cases of Shigella dysentery [DS (n = 148)] and non-Shigella watery diarrhea [WD (n = 148)]. (2) Children seeking care at hospitals in Bangladesh will be enrolled and followed for 1 year (NDSD and DS) or 90 days (WD). We will determine the impact of NDSD on morbidity, mortality, gut health, nutritional status, and cognitive development compared to DS and WD in children and whether the simple "Rapid LAMP-based Diagnostic Test (RLDT)" can accelerate the detection and treatment of shigellosis in the clinical settings of rural Bangladesh. (3) INSIGHT will determine the impact of NDSD in children and determine if the treatment guidelines of shigellosis need to be revisited to improve clinical outcomes and the development of these children.
