Evolution of subgenomic RNA shapes dengue virus adaptation and epidemiological fitness (Publications)
Changes in dengue virus (DENV) genome affect viral fitness both clinically and epidemiologically. Even in the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR), mutations could affect subgenomic flaviviral RNA (sfRNA)
The role of socioeconomic status in the association of lung function and air pollution-a pooled analysis of three adult ESCAPE cohorts (Publications)
Ambient air pollution is a leading environmental risk factor and its broad spectrum of adverse health effects includes a decrease in lung function. Socioeconomic status (SES) is known to be associated
Performance and impact of GeneXpert MTB/RIF® and Loopamp MTBC Detection Kit® assays on tuberculosis case detection in Madagascar (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis rapid molecular assays, including GeneXpert MTB/RIF(R) and Loopamp MTBC Detection Kit(R), are highly sensitive and specific. Such performance does not automatically translate
Machine learning techniques for personalized breast cancer risk prediction: comparison with the BCRAT and BOADICEA models (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Comprehensive breast cancer risk prediction models enable identifying and targeting women at high-risk, while reducing interventions in those at low-risk. Breast cancer risk prediction mod
