Quantitative assessment of eosinophiluria in <em>Schistosoma haematobium</em> infections: a new marker of infection and bladder morbidity (Publications)
Eosinophiluria, as quantified by measuring eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) in urinary extracts, microhematuria, egg excretion, and ultrasound-detectable bladder pathology were recorded in Schistosom
Monitoring of heavy metal concentrations in home outdoor air using moss bags (Publications)
One monitoring station is insufficient to characterize the high spatial variation of traffic-related heavy metals within cities. We tested moss bags (Hylocomium splendens), deployed in a dense network
The effect of the cyclin D1 (CCND1) A870G polymorphism on colorectal cancer risk is modified by glutathione-S-transferase polymorphisms and... (Publications)
Cyclin D1 (CCND1) regulates cellular decision between proliferation and growth arrest. Despite the functional relevance of the CCND1 A870G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) published results on its
One-hour rule-out and rule-in of acute myocardial infarction using high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (Publications)
BACKGROUND High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays seem to improve the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but it is unknown how to best use them in clinical practice. Our
Synthesis and antitrypanosomal evaluation of derivatives of N-benzyl-1,2-dihydroquinolin-6-ols: effect of core substitutions and salt formation (Publications)
Analogs of the trypanocidal lead compound 1-benzyl-1,2-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethylquinolin-6-yl acetate were prepared to extend the structure-activity relationship in this series of molecules, improve the
A Bayesian approach to estimate the age-specific prevalence of <em>Schistosoma mansoni</em> and implications for schistosomiasis control (Publications)
Models that accurately estimate the age-specific infection prevalence of Schistosoma mansoni can be useful for schistosomiasis control programmes, particularly with regard to whether mass drug adminis
