The association between exposure determined by radiofrequency personal exposimeters and human exposure: a simulation study (Publications)
The selection of an adequate exposure assessment approach is imperative for the quality of epidemiological studies. The use of personal exposimeters turned out to be a reasonable approach to determine
Conduct of a personal radiofrequency electromagnetic field measurement study: proposed study protocol (Publications)
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: The development of new wireless communication technologies that emit radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) is ongoing, but little is known about the RF-EMF exposure dis
Estimating malaria transmission intensity from <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> serological data using antibody density models (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Serological data are increasingly being used to monitor malaria transmission intensity and have been demonstrated to be particularly useful in areas of low transmission where traditional m
Retirement and perceived social inferiority strongly link with health inequalities in older age: decomposition of a concentration index of poor health... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Identifying mechanisms that generate and sustain health inequalities is a prerequisite for developing effective policy response, but little is known about factors contributing to health in
Discovery of antischistosomal drug leads based on tetraazamacrocyclic derivatives and their metal complexes (Publications)
Praziquantel (PZQ) is the only available drug to treat schistosomiasis, and since its large scale use might be associated with the onset of resistance, new antischistosomal drugs should be developed.
School distribution as keep-up strategy to maintain universal coverage of long-lasting insecticidal nets: implementation and results of a program in... (Publications)
Tanzania successfully scaled up coverage of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) through mass campaigns. To sustain these gains, a school-based approach was piloted in the country's Southern Zone st
Epidemiology of <em>Opisthorchis viverrini</em> in a rural district of southern Lao PDR (Publications)
In Lao PDR, detailed investigations on Opisthorchis viverrini are scarce. The objective was to document epidemiological features of O. viverrini infections in a highly endemic district. A random sampl
Combining synthetic human odours and low-cost electrocuting grids to attract and kill outdoor-biting mosquitoes: field and semi-field evaluation of an... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: On-going malaria transmission is increasingly mediated by outdoor-biting vectors, especially where indoor insecticidal interventions such as long-lasting insecticide treated nets (LLINs) a
