Long-term outcome in elderly patients with chronic angina managed invasively versus by optimized medical therapy: four-year follow-up of the... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: There are no prospective trial data on long-term outcomes in 80-year-old patients with chronic angina with regard to antiischemic therapy. METHODS AND RESULTS: To assess long-term survival
Size fractionate particulate matter, vehicle traffic, and case-specific daily mortality in Barcelona, Spain (Publications)
Recent epidemiological research suggests that short-term effects of particle matter (PM) in urban areas may preferentially be driven by fine fractions. Questions remain concerning the adversehealth ef
Modular synthesis and in vitro and in vivo antimalarial assessment of C-10 pyrrole mannich base derivatives of artemisinin (Publications)
In two steps from dihydroartemisinin, a small array of 16 semisynthetic C-10 pyrrole Mannich artemisinin derivatives (7a-p) have been prepared in moderate to excellent yield. In vitro analysis against
Does radical cure of asymptomatic <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> place adults in endemic areas at increased risk of recurrent symptomatic malaria? (Publications)
A cohort of 197 adults in Kassena-Nankana District (northern Ghana) was radically cured of malaria parasites to study subsequent incidence of malaria infection. During the following 20 weeks of the ma
Malaria vaccine candidate: design of a multivalent subunit alpha-helical coiled coil poly-epitope (Publications)
A new strategy for the rapid identification of new malaria antigens based on protein structural motifs was previously described. We identified and evaluated the malaria vaccine potential of fragments
Contribution of influenza immunity and virosomal-formulated synthetic peptide to cellular immune responses in a phase I subunit malaria vaccine trial (Publications)
We have demonstrated recently in a phase Ia clinical trial that synthetic malaria peptides delivered by immuno-potentiating reconstituted influenza virosomes (IRIV) induced long-lived peptide-specific
Global goods movement and the local burden of childhood asthma in southern California (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: As part of a community-based participatory research effort, we estimated the preventable burden of childhood asthma associated with air pollution in the southern California communities of
