Elusive cranial lesions severely afflicting young endangered Patagonian huemul deer (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: Most subpopulations of endangered huemul deer (Hippocamelus bisulcus) fail to recover, frequently due to osteopathology. Equivalent pathology was detected only postmortem in an additional
The overlap between miscarriage and extreme preterm birth in a limited-resource setting on the Thailand-Myanmar border: a population cohort study (Publications)
Background : No universal demarcation of gestational age distinguishes miscarriage and stillbirth or extreme preterm birth (exPTB). This study provides a synopsis of outcome between 22 to /=22 weeks.
Performance of antigen concentration thresholds for attributing fever to malaria among outpatients in Angola (Publications)
The density of malaria parasites is a key determinant in whether or not an infected individual develops fever. While the pyrogenic threshold for malaria parasite density has been well-studied, there i
HPV vaccination in a context of public mistrust and uncertainty: a systematic literature review of determinants of HPV vaccine hesitancy in Europe (Publications)
Europe is increasingly described as the region in the world with the least confidence in vaccination, and particularly in the safety of vaccines. The aim of this systematic literature review was to ga
Brain and salivary gland tumors and mobile phone use: evaluating the evidence from various epidemiological study designs (Publications)
Mobile phones (MPs) are the most relevant source of radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) exposure to the brain and the salivary gland. Whether this exposure implies a cancer risk has been add
Antagonistic effects of <em>Plasmodium</em>-helminth co-infections on malaria pathology in different population groups in Côte d'Ivoire (Publications)
INTRODUCTION: Plasmodium spp. and helminths are co-endemic in many parts of the tropics; hence, co-infection is a common phenomenon. Interactions between Plasmodium and helminth infections may alter t
Biology of two larval morphological phenotypes of <em>Aedes aegypti</em> in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire (Publications)
Since 2008, several outbreaks of yellow fever and dengue occurred in Abidjan, the economic capital of Cote d'Ivoire. A better knowledge of the biology of Aedes aegypti populations, the main vector of
Measuring and characterizing night time human behaviour as it relates to residual malaria transmission in sub-Saharan Africa: a review of the... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Malaria cases and deaths decreased dramatically in recent years, largely due to effective vector control interventions. Persistence of transmission after good coverage has been achieved wi
