Modified 5'-trityl nucleosides as inhibitors of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> dUTPase (Publications)
2'-Deoxyuridine triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase) is a potential drug target for the treatment of malaria. We previously reported the discovery of 5'-tritylated analogues of deoxyuridine as s
In a randomized controlled trial of iron fortification, anthelmintic treatment, and intermittent preventive treatment of malaria for anemia control in... (Publications)
Anemia is common among children in sub-Saharan Africa and its etiology is multifactorial. Likely causes of anemia are low bioavailability of dietary iron, malaria, and helminth infection. In this stud
Prévention de la malaria pour les séjours de longue durée (Publications)
The risk of malaria increases with the duration of stay. Long-term travelers need to know the risk of malaria and the effective measures to reduce this risk: personal protective measures against mosqu
Single pollutant versus surrogate measure approaches: do single pollutant risk assessments underestimate the impact of air pollution on lung cancer... (Publications)
Cancer risk as a result of air pollution may be quantified by different approaches. We compared the sum of unit risk based effects of single pollutants with an epidemiology-based method by using PM(10
Temporal and spatial variation of the chemical composition of PM10 at urban and rutal sites in the Basel area (Publications)
Particulate matter measurements of di!erent size fractions (PM, PM, TSP) were performed in the Basel area (Switzerland) at seven urban sites throughout 1997 and at two urban and two rural sites during
Cardiovascular mortality and exposure to extremely low frequency magnetic fields: a cohort study of Swiss railway workers (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Exposure to intermittent magnetic fields of 16 Hz has been shown to reduce heart rate variability, and decreased heart rate variability predicts cardiovascular mortality. We examined morta
