Association of early-life exposure to household gas appliances and indoor nitrogen dioxide with cognition and attention behavior in preschoolers (Publications)
The authors investigated the association of early-life exposure to indoor air pollution with neuropsychological development in preschoolers and assessed whether this association differs by glutathione
Combining near- and far-field exposure for an organ-specific and whole-body RF-EMF proxy for epidemiological research: a reference case (Publications)
A framework for the combination of near-field (NF) and far-field (FF) radio frequency electromagnetic exposure sources to the average organ and whole-body specific absorption rates (SARs) is presented
An outbreak of serotype 1 <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> meningitis in northern Ghana with features that are characteristic of <em>Neisseria... (Publications)
Background. The Kassena-Nankana District (KND) of northern Ghana lies in the African meningitis belt, where epidemics of bacterial meningitis have been reoccurring every 8-12 years. These epidemics ar
The public health relevance of air pollution abatement (Publications)
Assuming a causal relationship between current levels of air pollution and morbidity/mortality, it is crucial to estimate the public health relevance of the problem. The derivation of air pollution at
Metabonomic investigation of single and multiple strain <em>Trypanosoma brucei brucei</em> infections (Publications)
Abstract. Although co-infections are common and can have important epidemiologic and evolutionary consequences, studies exploring biochemical effects of multiple-strain infections remain scarce. We st
Association of environmental tobacco smoke at work and forced expiratory lung function among never smoking asthmatics and non-asthmatics. The... (Publications)
Inconsistencies across studies on the association of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) and pulmonary function may be clarified addressing potentially susceptible subgroups. We determined the associati
Identification of an <em>Onchocerca volvulus</em> cDNA encoding a low-molecular-weight antigen uniquely recognized by onchocerciasis patient sera (Publications)
The primary structure of an immunodominant antigen of the filarial parasite, Onchocerca volvulus was deduced from cDNA sequence analysis. Using affinity-purified antibody from onchocerciasis patients
A high-performance liquid chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy-based analysis of commercially available praziquantel tablets (Publications)
The amount of active ingredient in 20 commercially sourced batches of praziquantel (PZQ) tablets was determined using a high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) assay in conjunctio
