An observational analysis of the impact of indoor residual spraying with non-pyrethroid insecticides on the incidence of malaria in Ségou Region, Mali: 2012–2015

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Ségou Region in Central Mali is an area of high malaria burden with seasonal transmission, high access to and use of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs), and resistance to pyrethroids and DDT well documented in Anopheles gambiae s.l.

Onsager-Machlup action-based path sampling and its combination with replica exchange for diffusive and multiple pathways

, 2010
For sampling multiple pathways in a rugged energy landscape, we propose a novel action-based path sampling method using the Onsager-Machlup action functional.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

DMPA-SC self-injection experiences of clients and providers in Uganda: the role of community health workers in reproductive self-care service delivery

BMC Women's Health
Accelerating task sharing for family planning and contraceptive self-care can minimize the impact of a projected shortage of 18 million health care workers by 2030.

Path [PDF]

, 2018
Path is a collaborative system that developed over the course of five months of studio activity and continued through the duration of the exhibition. The system’s main collaborators were a land snail native to eastern North America (Neohelix albolabris),

Corrections to the Boltzmann mean free path in disordered systems with finite size scatterers

, 2001
The mean free path is an essential characteristic length in disordered systems. In microscopic calculations, it is usually approximated by the classical value of the elastic mean free path.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Directed path graphs [PDF]

, 1996
The concept of a line digraph is generalized to that of a directed path graph. The directed path graph $\overrightarrow P_k(D)$ of a digraph D is obtained by representing the directed paths on k vertices of D by vertices.

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These
