A household-based study of acute viral respiratory illnesses in Andean children (Publications)
BACKGROUND.: Few community studies have measured the incidence, severity, and etiology of acute respiratory illness (ARI) among children living at high-altitude in remote rural settings. METHODS.: We
Electrophysiological markers and predictors of the disease course in primary progressive multiple sclerosis (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Currently no valid surrogate marker exists for primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS). OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to prospectively investigate multimodal evoked potentials (EPs) as mark
Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases gat1p and gat2p are microsomal phosphoproteins with differential contributions to polarized cell growth (Publications)
Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the initial step in the synthesis of all glycerolipids. It is the committed and rate-limiting step and is redundant in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, m
Gill tissue lipids of salmon (Salmo salar L.) presmolts and smolts from anadromous and landlocked populations (Publications)
Composition of membrane lipids from the gills of juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in presmolt and smolt phases of development were compared among anadromous and non-anadromous populations. Three
Describing the evolution of medication nonadherence from pretransplant until 3 years post-transplant and determining pretransplant medication... (Publications)
Although medication nonadherence (MNA) is a major risk factor for poor outcomes, the evolution of MNA from pre- to 3 years post-transplant among the four major organ transplant groups remains unknown.
Probing the antimalarial mechanism of artemisinin and OZ277 (arterolane) with nonperoxidic isosteres and nitroxyl radicals (Publications)
Peroxidic antimalarials such as the semisynthetic artemisinins are critically important in the treatment of drug-resistant malaria. Nevertheless, their peroxide bond-dependent mode of action is still
Deletion in the gene BruAb2_0168 of <em>Brucella abortus</em> strains: diagnostic challenges (Publications)
Three Brucella abortus strains were isolated from joint hygromas from cows in northern Togo. Two deletions in the 5' side of the gene BruAb2_0168 were identified. As this gene is used for species iden
PolyTB: a genomic variation map for <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> (Publications)
Tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the second major cause of death from an infectious disease worldwide. Recent advances in DNA sequencing are leading to the ability to ge
