Monitoring of larval habitats and mosquito densities in the Sudan savanna of Mali: implications for malaria vector control (Publications)
In Mali, anopheline mosquito populations increase sharply during the rainy season, but are barely detectable in the dry season. This study attempted to identify the dry season mosquito breeding popula
Immunoglobulin G subclass-specific responses against <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> merozoite antigens are associated with control of parasitemia and... (Publications)
Substantial evidence indicates that antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite antigens play a role in protection from malaria, although the precise targets and mechanisms mediating immunity remain
Continuous video-EEG monitoring increases detection rate of nonconvulsive status epilepticus in the ICU (Publications)
Purpose: Status epilepticus (SE) is an important neurologic emergency requiring treatment on an intensive care unit (ICU). Although convulsive SE is self-evident, the diagnosis of nonconvulsive SE (NC
Acute phase proteins and white blood cell levels for prediction of infectious complications in status epilepticus (Publications)
ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Infections in status epilepticus (SE) patients result in severe morbidity making early diagnosis crucial. As SE may lead to inflammatory reaction, the value of acute phase prot
Compounds structurally related to ellagic acid show improved antiplasmodial activity (Publications)
The cancer chemopreventive agent ellagic acid (EA) is a known inhibitor of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) and possesses antiplasmodial activities in the upper-nanomolar range. In the recent drug de
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> and the need for a curated database (Publications)
Recent advances in DNA sequencing have led to the discovery of thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC). This genetic varia
