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

A Modified Two-scale Microwave Scattering Model for a Dielectric Randomly Rough Surface(in English)
In this paper, we present a Modified Two-Scale Microwave (MTSM) scattering model to describe the scattering coefficient of naturally rough surfaces. The surface roughness is assumed to be Gaussian in the proposed model so that the surface height z(x, y ...

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]
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.

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 ...

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 ...

Optimization of mesoporous titanosilicate catalysts for cyclohexene epoxidation via statistically guided synthesis. [PDF]
An efficient approach to improve the catalytic activity of titanosilicates is introduced. The Doehlert matrix (DM) statistical model was utilized to probe the synthetic parameters of mesoporous titanosilicate microspheres (MTSM), in order to increase ...

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

Titanium(IV)-induced cristobalite formation in titanosilicates and its potential impact on catalysis. [PDF]
Cristobalite, a crystalline form of silica, is shown to be formed within an amorphous titanosilicate, at previously unknown conditions. Mesoporous titanosilicate microspheres (MTSM) were synthesized as efficient catalysts for the epoxidation of ...

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 ...
