In vivo screening of antimalarial activity of Acacia mellifera (Benth) (Leguminosae) on Plasmodium berghei in mice.
(2007)
The activities of total extracts and lupane triterpenes, isolated from the stem bark of Acacia mellifera, were evaluated against Plasmodium berghei strain ANKA in a female Swiss mouse model. Five isolated compounds and the ...
Mortality Projection: Curve Fitting And Linear Regression
(2011)
This study was aimed at predicting future mortality rates given two main scenarios. The first is in the
case where there is a body of mortality tables from the past and the second is in the case where such a
database ...
Prognostic relevance of integrated genetic profiling in acute myeloid leukemia
(2012)
BACKGROUND:
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease with respect to presentation and clinical outcome. The prognostic value of recently identified somatic mutations has not been systematically evaluated ...
Acute myeloid leukemia with translocation t(8;16) presents with features which mimic acute promyelocytic leukemia and is associated with poor prognosis
(2013)
Previous small series have suggested that acute myeloid leukemia with t(8;16) is a distinct morphologic and clinical entity associated with poor prognosis. We describe 18 patients with t(8;16) AML, including their clinical, ...
How do novel molecular genetic markers influence treatment decisions in acute myeloid leukemia?
(2012)
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common acute leukemia diagnosed in adults, and the majority of patients with AML die from relapsed disease. Although many studies over the past 4 decades have identified disease ...
Characterization of body louse midgut proteins recognized by resistant hosts.
(1996)
The human body louse, Pediculus humanus, showed eighteen midgut proteins ranging between 12 and 117 kDa, when analysed by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Seven of them (12 kDa, 17 kDa, 29 kDa, 35 kDa, 40 kDa, 55 kDa and 97 kDa) ...
Immunization of rabbits with faecal extract of Pediculus humanus, the human body louse: effects on louse development and reproduction
(1997)
Immunization of rabbits with a faecal extract of the human body louse (Pediculus humanus) induced a high titre of specific IgG. The mean weight of blood taken by females fed on the immunized rabbits was significantly lower ...
Brain aging in a sample of normal Egyptians cognition, education, addiction and smoking.
(1997-05)
The impact of duration of education, cannabis addiction and smoking on cognition and brain aging is studied in 211 normal Egyptian volunteers with mean age 46.4+/-3.6 years (range: 20-76 years). Subjects were classified ...
Half-precessional dynamics of monsoon rainfall near the East African Equator.
(University of Nairobi,, 2009-12)
External climate forcings-such as long-term changes in solar insolation-generate different climate responses in tropical and high latitude regions. Documenting the spatial and temporal variability of past climates is ...
Screening mosquito house entry points as a potential method for integrated control of endophagic filariasis, arbovirus and malaria vectors
(2010)
BACKGROUND:
Partial mosquito-proofing of houses with screens and ceilings has the potential to reduce indoor densities of malaria mosquitoes. We wish to measure whether it will also reduce indoor densities of vectors ...
