Four new dimeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, michellamine A5 (2) and mbandakamines C-E (4-6), were isolated from the Congolese plant Ancistrocladus ealaensis, along with the known dimer mbandakami
Are public-private partnerships the solution to tackle neglected tropical diseases? A systematic review of the literature (Publications)
Pharmaceutical companies are reluctant to invest in research and development (R&D) of products for neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) mainly due to the low ability-to-pay of health insurance systems a
Association between air pollution and rhinitis incidence in two European cohorts (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The association between air pollution and rhinitis is not well established. AIM: The aim of this longitudinal analysis was to study the association between modeled air pollution at the sub
Self-nanoemulsifying drug-delivery systems improve oral absorption and antischistosomal activity of epiisopiloturine (Publications)
AIM: To develop a self-nanoemulsifying drug-delivery system (SNEDDS) able to improve oral absorption of epiisopiloturine (EPI), and test the antischistosomal activity in a mice model. RESULTS: SNEDDS
Development of non-linear models predicting daily fine particle concentrations using aerosol optical depth retrievals and ground-based measurements at... (Publications)
Epidemiological studies generally use particulate matter measurements with diameter less 2.5 μm (PM2.5) from monitoring networks. Satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD) data has considerable potential
Full-chain health impact assessment of traffic-related air pollution and childhood asthma (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Asthma is the most common chronic disease in children. Traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) may be an important exposure contributing to its development. In the UK, Bradford is a deprived
Occupational exposures and 20-year incidence of COPD: the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (Publications)
