Transactional Sex between Men and Its Implications on HIV and Sexually Transmitted Infections in Nigeria. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Sex Transm Dis, 2017
Introduction. Men who have transactional sex with men (MTSM) are known to be at higher risk for HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). This study explored the risk factors associated with STI symptoms and HIV prevalence among men who have transactional sex with men in Nigeria. Methods.

Daily and event-driven pre-exposure prophylaxis for men who have sex with men in Belgium: results of a prospective cohort measuring adherence, sexual behaviour and STI incidence. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Int AIDS Soc, 2019
Abstract Introduction Pre‐Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is highly effective in reducing the risk for HIV infection among men who have sex with men (MSM) and may have an important impact in slowing down the HIV epidemic. Concerns remain however about low adherence, increased risk behaviour and reduced condom use when using PrEP.

Metabolic shift underlies tumor progression and immune evasion in S‐nitrosoglutathione reductase‐deficient cancer

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, Volume 260, Issue 3, Page 261-275, July 2023., 2023
Abstract S‐nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) is a denitrosylase enzyme that has been suggested to play a tumor suppressor role, although the mechanisms responsible are still largely unclear. In this study, we show that GSNOR deficiency in tumors is associated with poor prognostic histopathological features and poor survival in patients with ...

A biogeographical approach to characterizing the climatic, physical and geomorphic niche of the most widely distributed mangrove species, Avicennia marina

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 89-108, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Mangroves are coastal ecosystems exposed to terrestrial, marine, geomorphic and climatic forcings operating in concert, making the mangrove niche hard to define, as evidenced by extremely poor restoration outcomes. We have developed a set of high‐resolution species distribution models and interpreted the variables that have the largest ...

A Novel Martingale Based Model Using a Smartphone to Detect Gait Bout in Human Activity Recognition

open access: yesJournal of Sensors, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Gait bout is when an individual performs certain physical activities such as walking or running. In the last few decades, the study of gait bout has led to substantial progress in treating gait impairment (neuropathic, myopathic, and parkinsonian) in a person. Recently, gait bout study has been improved by advancing smartphone technology.

Examine the Prediction Error of Ride‐Hailing Travel Demands with Various Ignored Sparse Demand Effects

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The accurate short‐term travel demand predictions of ride‐hailing orders can promote the optimal dispatching of vehicles in space and time, which is the crucial issue to achieve sustainable development of such dynamic demand‐responsive service. The sparse demands are always ignored in the previous models, and the uncertainties in the spatiotemporal ...

Sound Radiation Mitigation of Geometrically Nonlinear Plates Subjected to Subsonic Airflow

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
This paper gives a theoretical analysis to obtain and reduce the acoustic pressure generated from plates with geometric nonlinearities subjected to subsonic airflow and external excitation. von‐Kármán assumptions are applied considering the nonlinear terms in strain‐displacement relations.
