Abstract Artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum is associated with nonsynonymous mutations the Kelch 13 (K13) propeller domain. We found that 12.1% (8/66) of clinical P. isolates from Huye district, Rwanda, exhibited K13 mutations, including R561H, a validated marker. appear to be increasing this region.
Briefly before the first peak of COVID-19 pandemic in Berlin, Germany, schools closed mid-March 2020. Following re-opening, resumed operation at a reduced level for nine weeks. During this phase, we aimed assessing, among students and teachers, infection status, symptoms, individual behaviour, institutional prevention measures. Twenty-four primary secondary school classes, randomly selected across were examined. Oro-nasopharyngeal swabs capillary blood samples collected to determine...
Artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum is conferred by mutations the kelch 13 (K13) gene. In Rwanda, K13 have increased over past decade, including associated with delayed parasite clearance. We document artemisinin P. patient isolates from Rwanda carrying R561H, A675V, and C469F mutations.
As the brain ages, oscillatory changes disrupt neuronal communication, contributing to cognitive decline in key areas such as parts of attention network system. This study explores effects multi-session low-intensity transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) on efficiency alerting, orienting, and executive control networks older adults. Using a 16-session theta-gamma tACS protocol targeting prefrontal cortex, we examined its impact Attention Network Task (ANT) performance 76...
Abstract The escalating global burden of age-related neurodegenerative diseases and associated healthcare costs necessitates innovative interventions to stabilize or enhance cognitive functions. Deficits in working memory (WM) are linked alterations prefrontal theta–gamma cross-frequency coupling. Low-intensity transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) has emerged as a non-invasive, low-cost approach capable modulating ongoing oscillations targeted brain areas through entrainment....
An important component in fostering the responsible use of antibiotics is training new and future prescribers this interdisciplinary topic. Because podcasts are playing an increasing role medical education, we aimed to develop evaluate a podcast format with practice guideline-oriented learning content on antibiotic therapy for students young professionals. We developed concept direct involvement experts teaching experience. used video conferencing when recording episodes order have quick,...
Plasmodium vivax is the second-most common malaria pathogen globally, but considered very rare in predominantly Duffy-negative sub-Saharan African population. In 259 patients from highland southern Rwanda, we assessed species and Duffy blood group status by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). falciparum, P. vivax, malariae, ovale were seen 90.7%, 8.1%, 11.6%, 5.0%, respectively. occurred more frequently as a monoinfection than combination with falciparum. All vivax-infected individuals showed...
Abstract Background Briefly before the first peak of COVID-19 pandemic in Berlin, Germany, schools closed mid-March 2020 for six weeks. Following re-opening, gradually resumed operation at a reduced level nine weeks preceding summer holidays. Aim During this phase, we conducted situational assessment among students and teachers as to infection status, symptoms, affective, behavioural, educational issues, preventive measures. Methods At twenty-four randomly selected primary secondary schools,...
Plasmodium falciparum multidrug resistance-1 gene ( pfmdr1 ) polymorphisms associate with altered antimalarial susceptibility. Between 2010 and 2018/2019, we observed that the prevalence of wild-type allele N86 combination NYD increased 10-fold (4% versus 40%) more than 2-fold (18% 44%), respectively.
