The effects of an oil and wheat flour fortification program on pre-school children and women of reproductive age living in Côte d'Ivoire, a... (Publications)
Anemia and micronutrient deficiencies are widespread in sub-Saharan Africa, but the impact of food fortification is still debated. The objective of this study was to estimate the iron and vitamin A st
<em>In vitro</em> activity of anti-malarial ozonides against an artemisinin-resistant isolate (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Recently published data suggest that artemisinin derivatives and synthetic peroxides, such as the ozonides OZ277 and OZ439, have a similar mode of action. Here the cross-resistance of OZ27
Multiplicity of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> infection following intermittent preventive treatment in infants (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Intermittent preventive treatment in infants with sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (IPTi-SP) reduces malaria morbidity by 20% to 33%. Potentially, however, this intervention may compromise the a
A model for radiofrequency electromagnetic field predictions at outdoor and indoor locations in the context of epidemiological research (Publications)
We present a geospatial model to predict the radiofrequency electromagnetic field from fixed site transmitters for use in epidemiological exposure assessment. The proposed model extends an existing mo
Classification of personal exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) for epidemiological research: Evaluation of different exposure... (Publications)
The use of personal exposure meters (exposimeters) has been recommended for measuring personal exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) from environmental far-field sources in every
Fine particulate matter measurements in Swiss restaurants, cafés and bars: What is the effect of spatial separation between smoking and non-smoking... (Publications)
We performed 124 measurements of particulate matter (PM(2.5)) in 95 hospitality venues such as restaurants, bars, cafes, and a disco, which had differing smoking regulations. We evaluated the impact o
Memory performance, wireless communication and exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields: a prospective cohort study in adolescents (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to investigate whether memory performance in adolescents is affected by radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) from wireless device use or by the wireless
Comparison of personal radio frequency electromagnetic field exposure in different urban areas across Europe (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Only limited data are available on personal radio frequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) exposure in everyday life. Several European countries performed measurement studies in this area
