Etiology of severe childhood pneumonia in the Gambia, West Africa, determined by conventional and molecular microbiological analyses of lung and pleural aspirate samples. [PDF]
Molecular analyses of lung aspirates from Gambian children with severe pneumonia detected pathogens more frequently than did culture and showed a predominance of bacteria, principally Streptococcus pneumoniae, >75% being of serotypes covered by current ...

Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose
Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...

Distribution of human papillomaviruses and bacterial vaginosis in HIV positive women with abnormal cytology in Mombasa, Kenya [PDF]
Background: HPV is the major etiological factor in the causal pathway for cervical cancer, which is the leading cancer among women in sub-Saharan Africa. HIV is associated with a higher prevalence and a broader range of high-risk HPV genotypes.

State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.

Immune status of recipients following bone marrow - Augmented solid organ transplantation [PDF]
It has been postulated that the resident “passenger” leukocytes of hematolymphoid origin that migrate from whole organ grafts and subsequently establish systemic chimerism are essential for graft acceptance and the induction of donor-specific ...

Equivariant Filter Design for Kinematic Systems on Lie Groups [PDF]
It is known that invariance and equivariance properties for systems on Lie groups can be exploited in the design of high performance and robust observers and filters for real-world robotic systems. This paper proposes an analysis framework that allows any kinematic system on a Lie group to be embedded in a natural manner into an equivariant kinematic ...

A hydrophilic, stretchable, nonwoven electrospun fiber mat targeted to be applied in long‐term bioelectronic devices. By incorporating amphiphilic polyethylene glycol block copolymers in a polydimethylsiloxane matrix, the material develops stable hydrophilicity, enhanced breathability, as well as enhanced adhesion to cells.
