Missed opportunities for vaccination (MOV) is an important barrier hindering full immunisation coverage among eligible children.Though factors responsible for MOV are well documented in literature, little attention has been paid to the role of inequalities.The aim of this study is to examine the association between structural or compositional facto
Depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) enhances susceptibility and increases the window of vulnerability to HIV-1 in humanized mice
Abstract The progestin-based hormonal contraceptive Depot Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (DMPA) is widely used in sub-Saharan Africa, where HIV-1 is endemic.Meta-analyses have shown that women using DMPA are 40% more likely than women not using hormonal contraceptives to acquire Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1).Therefore understanding how DMPA inc
Life history adaptations of Carabus populations in a suburban park: A capture-recapture case study
A two seasons capture-recapture study was preformed between 2016 and 2017, focusing on the Carabus species living in a suburban park in Budapest, Hungary.Eighty-four live-capture non-baited pitfall traps were placed in a grid covering an area of 567 m2.Five Carabus species were captured in the park from shirt the nine species in the potential speci
Ovarian Mechanobiology: Understanding the Interplay Between Mechanics and Follicular Development
The ovary is a dynamic organ Cayenne Pepper (Capsicum) where mechanical forces profoundly regulate follicular development, oocyte maturation, and overall reproductive function.These forces, originating from the extracellular matrix (ECM), granulosa and theca cells, and ovarian stroma, influence cellular behavior through mechanotransduction, transla
Circ_0000006 and circ_0000160 regulate hsa-let-7e-5p/UBQLN4 axis in aortic dissection progression.
Aortic aneurysms (AA) and aorta dissection (AD) are life-threatening conditions with a rising incidence and high mortality rate.Recent research has linked non-coding RNAs to the regulation of AA and AD progression.In this study, we performed circRNA sequencing, microRNA (miRNA) sequencing, and messenger RNA (mRNA) sequencing on plasma samples from
