Abstract The government of Kenya’s Triple Threat strategy recognises the need for urgent intervention to address high incidence HIV, gender-based violence (GBV) and pregnancy among adolescent girls young women (AGYW). We used nationally representative data AGYW aged 13–24 ( n = 1344) from 2018-19 Kenya Violence Against Children & Youth Survey (VACS) in multivariable logistic regression analyses examine associations between three potential protective factors – gender-equitable attitudes,...
Every heartbeat depends on cyclical contraction-relaxation produced by the interactions between myosin-containing thick and actin-based thin filaments (TFs) arranged into a crystalline-like lattice in cardiac sarcomere. Therefore, maintenance of filament length is crucial for myocardium function. The comprised an actin backbone, regulatory troponin complex tropomyosin that controls filaments. Thin controlled tropomodulin family proteins; caps pointed ends filaments, leiomodin (Lmod) promotes...
Lesotho's government has shown consistent efforts to implement social protection programmes. However, while recent evidence established a positive causal relationship between some of these programmes and food security there is little on the extent which initiatives are associated with better educational sexual reproductive health outcomes among vulnerable adolescents in Lesotho.
Abstract A transient increase in Ca 2+ concentration sarcomeres is essential for their proper function. drives striated muscle contraction via binding to the troponin complex of thin filament activate its interaction with myosin thick filament. In addition complex, light chain and myosin‐binding protein C were also found be sensitive. However, effects on function tropomodulin family proteins involved regulating formation have not yet been studied. Leiomodin, a member family, an actin...
