Description
Variables: date and year of hospitalisation, sex, age (years, conventional bands and mortality strata), diagnostic group (COVID-19; diphtheria; Lassa fever or other viral haemorrhagic fever; mpox; other), laboratory result as recorded in the ward logbook, ward outcome, death indicator, length of stay, and the verbatim working diagnosis.

Among 268 patients with a determinate outcome, 90 died (case fatality 33.6%). Files: Isolation_Ward_Dataset.xlsx (sheets Data, Codebook, Summary, Changes_since_v2); Supplementary_Material.docx (Tables S1–S5); Figures S1–S4; README.txt. Version 3 (September 2026) replaces the Version 2 files: the superseded CSV, which predated the correction of transposed dates, is withdrawn; five coding corrections are applied; and the supplementary tables and figures are regenerated from the corrected dataset.
Analyses use multivariable logistic regression. See README.txt for details. Ethics: Health Research Ethics Committee, Modibbo Adama University Teaching Hospital, Yola (MAUTHYOLA/HREC/26/437); individual consent waived for routinely collected, de-identified records.</p>
