The development of an ivermectin-based attractive toxic sugar bait (ATSB) to target <em>Anopheles arabiensis</em> (Publications)
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of countries in sub-Saharan Africa are moving towards malaria-elimination, mostly thanks to successful vector control campaigns. However, elimination has proven challe
Short-term association between ambient air pollution and pneumonia in children: a systematic review and meta-analysis of time-series and... (Publications)
Ambient air pollution has been associated with respiratory diseases in children. However, its effects on pediatric pneumonia have not been meta-analyzed. We conducted a systematic review and meta-anal
Assessing potential health impacts of waste recovery and reuse business models in Hanoi, Vietnam (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: In resource-constrained settings, the recovery of nutrients and the production of energy from liquid and solid waste are important. We determined the range and magnitude of potential commu
Prebiotic galacto-oligosaccharides mitigate the adverse effects of iron fortification on the gut microbiome: a randomised controlled study in Kenyan... (Publications)
OBJECTIVE: Iron-containing micronutrient powders (MNPs) reduce anaemia in African infants, but the current high iron dose (12.5 mg/day) may decrease gut Bifidobacteriaceae and Lactobacillaceae, and in
Estimation of malaria parasite reservoir coverage using reactive case detection and active community fever screening from census data with rapid... (Publications)
BACKGROUND AND METHODS: In areas where malaria transmission has been suppressed by vector control interventions many malaria control and elimination programmes are actively seeking new interventions t
The antitrypanosomal and antitubercular activity of some nitro(triazole/imidazole)-based aromatic amines (Publications)
A limited number of novel 3-nitrotriazole- and 2-nitroimidazole-linked quinolines and quinazolines were synthesized and screened for in vitro antitrypanosomal and antitubercular activities as well as
Antimalarial inhibitors targeting serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) with <em>in vivo</em> efficacy and analysis of their binding mode based on... (Publications)
Target-based approaches toward new antimalarial treatments are highly valuable to prevent resistance development. We report several series of pyrazolopyran-based inhibitors targeting the enzyme serine
Clinical and laboratory predictors of death in African children with features of severe malaria: a systematic review and meta-analysis (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The criteria for defining severe malaria have evolved over the last 20 years. We aimed to assess the strength of association of death with features currently characterizing severe malaria
3-hydroxy-N'-arylidenepropanehydrazonamides with halo-substituted phenanthrene scaffolds cure <em>P. berghei</em> infected mice when administered... (Publications)
Structural optimization of 3-hydroxy-N'-arylidenepropanehydrazonamides provided new analogs with nanomolar to subnanomolar antiplasmodial activity against asexual blood stages of Plasmodium falciparum
