Disruption of erythrocyte rosettes and agglutination of erythrocytes infected with<em> Plasmodium falciparum</em> by the sera of Papua New Guineans (Publications)
People living in areas endemic for Plasmodium falciparum develop humoral responses which may contribute to protection against clinical disease but the specificity of such protective antibody responses
Menstrual irregularity and asthma and lung function (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Oligomenorrhea was associated with more asthma (Respiratory Health in Northern Europe study), but a possible association with lung function has not been investigated previously. OBJECTIVE:
IgE antibodies are more species-specific than IgG antibodies in human onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis (Publications)
To explore the relative species specificities of the IgE and IgG antibody responses to helminth infections in man, we studied four pools of sera from patients infected with Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugi
