Previous studies have indicated widespread insecticide resistance in malaria vector populations from Cameroon. However, the intensity of this resistance and underlying mechanisms are poorly known. The
Rifampicin mono-resistant tuberculosis is not the same as multidrug-resistant tuberculosis: a descriptive study from Khayelitsha, South Africa (Publications)
Rifampicin mono-resistant TB (RMR-TB, rifampicin resistance and isoniazid susceptibility) constitutes 38% of all rifampicin-resistant TB (RR-TB) in South Africa and is increasing. We aimed to compare
Cardiovascular disease in the Peruvian Andes: local perceptions, barriers, and paths to preventing chronic diseases in the Cajamarca region (Publications)
Objectives: Public health interventions can be improved by understanding peoples’ explanatory models of disease. We explore awareness and perceptions of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and options for p
Mutual effects of fine particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, and fireworks on cause-specific acute cardiovascular mortality: a case-crossover study in... (Publications)
Ambient air pollution is the leading cause of environmental mortality and morbidity worldwide. However, the individual contributions to acute mortality of traffic-related air pollutants such as nitrog
Long-term exposures to PM2.5, black carbon and NO2 and prevalence of current rhinitis in French adults: the constances cohort (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Rhinitis is one of the most common disease worldwide with a high and increasing prevalence. There is limited knowledge on the link between long-term exposure to air pollution and rhinitis.
Heat-related cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in Switzerland: a clinical perspective (Publications)
AIMS: Previous studies found increased cardiovascular mortality during hot days, while emergency hospital admissions were decreasing. We explored potential underlying reasons by analysing clinically s
Modifications and hybrids of 1,2,3,4‑tetrahydropyridinium salts and their antiprotozoal potencies (Publications)
The antiprotozoal activity of 1-benzyltetrahydropyridin-4-yliden iminium salts is reported. This paper describes the preparation of a series of analogs from dihydropyridines or dihydrothiopyrans as ed
Teaching and learning for change: analysis of a post‑graduate One Health program (Publications)
