Is the HCV-HIV co-infection prevalence amongst injecting drug users a marker for the level of sexual and injection related HIV transmission?

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Amongst injecting drug users (IDUs), HIV is transmitted sexually and parenterally, but HCV is transmitted primarily parenterally. We assess and model the antibody prevalence of HCV amongst HIV-infected IDUs (denoted as HCV-HIV co-infection ...

Sustaining Rwanda's HIV response after elimination of PEPFAR funding: a modelling analysis of HIV epidemic and care continuum outcomes

Journal of the International AIDS Society, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Introduction HIV prevention and treatment supported by the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) have saved millions of lives. Rwanda is among the most successful countries worldwide in achieving global targets with PEPFAR support.

Recurrent intussusception associated with pneumatosis cystoides coli: A pediatric case report

JPGN Reports, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 51-54, February 2026.
Abstract Pneumatosis cystoides coli (PCC) describes gas‐filled cysts within the wall of the gastrointestinal tract and is uncommon in children. We report a 7‐year‐old female with a history of recurrent ileocolic intussusception secondary to PCC. Her initial episodes of intussusception resolved spontaneously or with air enema, but no lead point was ...

Microstructural Characteristics and Mechanical Properties of Water Cooling Bobbin-Tool Friction Stir Welded 6063-T6 Aluminum Alloy

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
In this study, a novel welding method called water cooling bobbin-tool friction stir welding (WBT-FSW) was developed. 4 mm-thick 6063-T6 aluminum alloy sheets were successfully jointed by WBT-FSW.

Estimating the size of the female sex worker population in Kenya to inform HIV prevention programming.

PLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundThe high burden of HIV infections among female sex workers (FSW) in sub-Saharan Africa has been long recognised, but effective preventive interventions have largely not been taken to scale.

Modular multilevel converter losses model for HVdc applications [PDF]

, 2017
Multi-terminal high voltage dc (HVdc) grids can eventually became a feasible solution to transport energy to remote and/ or distant areas and its exploitation depend, among other things, on the performance of the converter terminals.

Switched Capacitor Voltage Converter [PDF]

, 2019
This project supports IoT development by reducing the power con- sumption and physical footprint of voltage converters. Our switched- capacitor IC design steps down an input of 1:0 - 1:4 V to 0:6 V for a decade of load current from 5 ...

Parametric finite-element studies on the effect of tool shape in friction stir welding [PDF]

, 2010
The success of the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process, and the weld quality produced, depends significantly on the design of the welding tool. In this paper the effect of variation in various tool geometry parameters on FSW process outcomes, during the ...
