Risk factors for colonization and infection with multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in intensive care unit: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

Systematic Reviews, 2022
Background Infection with resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (RPA) in the intensive care unit (ICU) is known to be either endogenous or exogenous or both, but the roles of each of these contamination routes are yet to be clarified.

Audit of the community-directed treatment with ivermectin (CDTI) for onchocerciasis and factors associated with adherence in three regions of Cameroon

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background After more than 15 years of community-directed treatment with ivermectin (CDTI) in the Centre 1, Littoral 2 and West CDTI projects in Cameroon, the epidemiological evaluation conducted in 2011 revealed that onchocerciasis endemicity was still ...

Continuous evolution of Eurasian avian-like H1N1 swine influenza viruses with pdm/09-derived internal genes enhances pathogenicity in mice

Journal of Virology
Swine influenza A virus (swIAV) is an important zoonotic pathogen with the potential to cause human influenza pandemics. Swine are considered “mixing vessels” for generating novel reassortant influenza A viruses. In 2009, a swine-origin reassortant virus

Variable number of TMC1-dependent mechanotransducer channels underlie tonotopic conductance gradients in the cochlea

Nature Communications, 2018
Mechanoelectrical transduction channel (MET) current found in stereocilia of hair cells matures over the first postnatal week. Here the authors look at the contribution of transmembrane channel-like protein 1 and 2 (TMC1 and TMC2) to MET current during ...

Important progress towards elimination of onchocerciasis in the West Region of Cameroon

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background After more than a decade of community-directed treatment with ivermectin (CDTI) in the West Region of Cameroon, epidemiological evaluation conducted in 2011 showed that onchocerciasis endemicity was still high in some communities.
