Human ascariasis: diagnostics update [PDF]

, 2015
Soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) infect over one billion people worldwide. Ascariasis may mimic a number of conditions, and individual clinical diagnosis often requires a thorough work-up.

Advances in Double‐Stranded DNA Targeting Technologies

Exploration, EarlyView.
Double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) plays a crucial role in genetic information storage and disease management, but its inherent stability limits access to internal bases. To overcome this challenge, various high‐specificity molecular targeting technologies have been developed to destabilize the DNA structure.

Grassland management and helminth control on cattle farms [PDF]

, 2017
Farmers manage their pastures and grazing animals primarily to ensure that swards provide adequate, quality nutrients to support animal performance, but it is also possible to provide useful levels of parasite control without compromising production.

Advancing pharmacometrics in Africa—Transition from capacity development toward job creation

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 407-419, March 2025.
Abstract Trained pharmacometricians remain scarce in Africa due to limited training opportunities, lack of a pharmaceutical product development ecosystem, and emigration to high‐income countries. The Applied Pharmacometrics Training (APT) fellowship program was established to address these gaps and specifically foster job creation for talent retention.

Association of autoimmune diseases with biologic agents targeting type 2 immunity: An observational study using a claims database

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
This observational study assessed the association between anti‐type 2 biologic agents and the occurrence of autoimmune diseases using a large real‐world claims database. Anti‐IL‐5 and anti‐IgE therapies were associated with an increased occurrence of autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

Mucosal Barrier and Th2 Immune Responses Are Enhanced by Dietary Inulin in Pigs Infected With Trichuris suis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Diet composition may play a crucial role in shaping host immune responses and commensal gut microbiota populations. Bioactive dietary components, such as inulin, have been extensively studied for their bioactive properties, particularly in modulating gut

Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset

Use of chitinase to facilitate detection of protozoan, helminth and single copy genes in squashed whole mosquitoes

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1989
The application of DNA probes to detect foreign DNA in whole arthropods has been limited by the inability of the probes to distinguish between small quantities of target DNA and the background signal generated by non-specific hybridization of mosquito material.
