Contribution of influenza immunity and virosomal-formulated synthetic peptide to cellular immune responses in a phase I subunit malaria vaccine trial (Publications)
We have demonstrated recently in a phase Ia clinical trial that synthetic malaria peptides delivered by immuno-potentiating reconstituted influenza virosomes (IRIV) induced long-lived peptide-specific
A land use regression model for predicting ambient fine particulate matter across Los Angeles, CA (Publications)
Land use regression (LUR) models have been used successfully for predicting local variation in traffic pollution, but few studies have explored this method for deriving fine particle exposure surfaces
MAP kinase kinase 1 (MKK1) is essential for transmission of <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em> by <em>Glossina morsitans</em> (Publications)
MAP kinase kinase 1 (MKK1) is encoded by a single copy gene in Trypanosoma brucei. It has been shown recently that MKK1 is not essential for bloodstream forms [14]. To investigate the requirement for
Use of B-type natriuretic peptide in the management of acute dyspnea in patients with pulmonary disease (Publications)
BACKGROUND: In patients with pulmonary disease, it is often challenging to distinguish exacerbated pulmonary disease from congestive heart failure (CHF). The impact of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)
Critical roles of glycosylphosphatidylinositol for <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em> (Publications)
Trypanosoma brucei, the protozoan parasite responsible for sleeping sickness, evades the immune response of mammalian hosts and digestion in the gut of the insect vector by means of its coat proteins
Safe start at home: what parents of newborns need after early discharge from hospital - a focus group study (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The length of postpartum hospital stay is decreasing internationally. Earlier hospital discharge of mothers and newborns decreases postnatal care or transfers it to the outpatient setting.
