Transformative Pathways for Strengthening Climate‐Resilient Health Systems Among Indigenous Communities: Advancing Equity and Sustainability in Global Health

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most climate‐resilience health interventions are designed at the global level, with minimal attention to Indigenous communities' needs. The lack of consideration can lead to unintended harm and exacerbate health risks. This study aims to identify the capacities of Indigenous communities that can serve as transformative pathways in safely ...

e3SIM: Epidemiological‐ecological‐evolutionary simulation framework for genomic epidemiology

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Infectious disease dynamics result from the complex interplay of epidemiological, ecological and evolutionary (epi‐eco‐evo) processes. Accurately modelling these coupled processes is crucial for understanding pathogen spread and informing public health strategies.

Role of alpha-crystallin, early-secreted antigenic target 6-kDa protein and culture filtrate protein 10 as novel diagnostic markers in osteoarticular tuberculosis

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2016
Osteoarticular tuberculosis constitutes about 3% of all tuberculosis cases. Early and accurate diagnosis of tuberculosis is a challenging problem especially in the case of osteoarticular tuberculosis owing to the lower number of bacilli.
