Different classes of genomic inserts contribute to human antibody diversity (Publications)
Recombination of antibody genes in B cells can involve distant genomic loci and contribute a foreign antigen-binding element to form hybrid antibodies with broad reactivity for Plasmodium falciparum.
2-(Nitroaryl)-5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives with antiprotozoal activities: <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo </em>study (Publications)
Nitro-containing compounds are a well-known class of anti-infective agents, especially in the field of anti-parasitic drug discovery. HAT or sleeping sickness is a neglected tropical disease caused by
Europe-wide air pollution modeling from 2000 to 2019 using geographically weighted regression (Publications)
Previous European land-use regression (LUR) models assumed fixed linear relationships between air pollution concentrations and predictors such as traffic and land use. We evaluated whether including s
The source of individual heterogeneity shapes infectious disease outbreaks (Publications)
There is known heterogeneity between individuals in infectious disease transmission patterns. The source of this heterogeneity is thought to affect epidemiological dynamics but studies tend not to con
Simple clinical and laboratory predictors to improve empirical treatment strategies in areas of high scrub typhus and dengue endemicity, central... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Dengue fever is highly endemic in Vietnam, but scrub typhus-although recognized as an endemic disease-remains underappreciated. These diseases together are likely to account for more than
Effectiveness of four different interventions against <em>Schistosoma haematobium</em> in a seasonal transmission setting of Côte d'Ivoire: a cluster... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Annual mass drug administration (MDA) using praziquantel is the cornerstone of schistosomiasis morbidity control, but is not sufficient to interrupt transmission. We implemented a cluster-
Interprofessional differences in preoperative planning: the individualist surgeon (Publications)
Background Perioperative processes have a great impact on the quality of surgery. In a high-risk surrounding, proper planning and communication is of upmost importance. We have identified other profes
A description of ICNIRP's independent, best practice system of guidance on the protection of people and the environment from exposure to non-ionizing... (Publications)
ABSTRACT: In this statement, the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) presents its structure, its activities, and general approach to providing guidance on NIR protec
Population genetic structure of <em>Schistosoma haematobium</em> and <em>Schistosoma haematobium</em> x <em>Schistosoma bovis</em> hybrids among... (Publications)
While population genetics of Schistosoma haematobium have been investigated in West Africa, only scant data are available from Cote d'Ivoire. The purpose of this study was to analyze both genetic vari
