Exposure to endotoxin or other bacterial components might protect against the development of atopy (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Several recent studies have shown that growing up on a farm confers significant protection against the development of atopy. These findings point particularly towards the importance of exp
Opposite effect of negative and positive affect on stress procoagulant reactivity (Publications)
Exaggerated procoagulant responses to acute mental stress may contribute to coronary thrombosis, and continuing low-grade systemic coagulation activation may link negative affect with the development
Outcome of radioiodine therapy without, on or 3 days off carbimazole: a prospective interventional three-group comparison (Publications)
PURPOSE: Carbimazole ameliorates hyperthyroidism but reduces radioiodine uptake and adversely affects the outcome of simultaneous radioiodine therapy. We explored whether withdrawal of carbimazole for
Evaluation of methods for modeling transcription factor sequence specificity (Publications)
Genomic analyses often involve scanning for potential transcription factor (TF) binding sites using models of the sequence specificity of DNA binding proteins. Many approaches have been developed to m
Bayesian geostatistical modelling for mapping schistosomiasis transmission (Publications)
Progress has been made in mapping and predicting the risk of schistosomiasis using Bayesian geostatistical inference. Applications primarily focused on risk profiling of prevalence rather than infecti
System level metabolic effects of a <em>Schistosoma japonicum </em>infection in the Syrian hamster (Publications)
A metabolic profiling strategy was used to investigate the metabolic responses of Syrian hamsters (SLAC) to a Schistosoma japonicum infection using high resolution (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR
