Influenza vaccination of pregnant women: engaging clinicians to reduce missed opportunities for vaccination (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Antenatal influenza vaccination (AIV) is an effective intervention for protecting pregnant women and their newborns against influenza. Although the World Health Organization recommends AIV
Longitudinal tracking and quantification of individual <em>Plasmodium falciparum </em>clones in complex infections (Publications)
Longitudinal tracking of individual Plasmodium falciparum strains in multi-clonal infections is essential for investigating infection dynamics of malaria. The traditional genotyping techniques did not
Genetic landscape of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease identifies heterogeneous cell-type and phenotype associations (Publications)
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the leading cause of respiratory mortality worldwide. Genetic risk loci provide new insights into disease pathogenesis. We performed a genome-wide assoc
Subspecies typing of <em>Streptococcus agalactiae</em> based on ribosomal subunit protein mass variation by MADLI-TOF MS (Publications)
Background: A ribosomal subunit protein (rsp)-based matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) method was developed for fast subspecies-level typing of
Influence of acute physical activity on stress reactivity in obese and normal weight children: a randomized controlled trial (Publications)
OBJECTIVE: Physical activity (PA) may influence acute stress reactivity in children differently depending on their weight. This randomized controlled trial investigated the impact of acute PA and of B
Antitrypanosomal activity of sesquiterpene lactones from <em>Helianthus tuberosus</em> L. including a new furanoheliangolide with an unusual structure (Publications)
As part of our efforts to exploit the antitrypanosomal potential of sesquiterpene lactones (STL) from Helianthus tuberosus L. (Asteraceae), besides the known 4,15-iso-atriplicolide tiglate, -methacryl
