All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Mosquito oviposition site selection is essential for vector population dynamics and malaria epidemiology. Irrigated rice cultivations provide ideal larval habitats for malaria mosquitoes, which has resulted in increased prevalence of the malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis, in sub-Saharan Africa. The nature and origin of the cues regulating this behaviour are only now being elucidated. We show that gravid Anopheles arabiensis are attracted and oviposit in response to the odour present in the air surrounding rice. Furthermore, we identify a synthetic rice odour blend, using electrophysiological and chemical analyses, which elicits attraction and oviposition in laboratory assays, as well as attraction of …

Indeks Massa Tubuh Dan Waktu Terjadinya Konversi Sputum Pada Pasien Tuberkulosis Paru Bta Positif Di Rsup Persahabatan Tahun 2012, Tika Dwi Tama

Jurnal Epidemiologi Kesehatan Indonesia

Lebih dari 50% pasien tuberkulosis memiliki indeks massa tubuh (IMT) yang rendah. Rendahnya IMT dapat memperburuk respon pengobatan dan memperbesar risiko gagal pengobatan.

Integration Of Plant Defense Traits With Biological Control Of Arthropod Pests: Challenges And Opportunities, Julie A. Peterson, Paul J. Ode, Camila Oliveira-Hofman, James D. Harwood

Entomology Faculty Publications

Crop plants exhibit a wide diversity of defensive traits and strategies to protect themselves from damage by herbivorous pests and disease. These defensive traits may be naturally occurring or artificially selected through crop breeding, including introduction via genetic engineering. While these traits can have obvious and direct impacts on herbivorous pests, many have profound effects on higher trophic levels, including the natural enemies of herbivores. Multi-trophic effects of host plant resistance have the potential to influence, both positively and negatively, biological control. Plant defense traits can influence both the numerical and functional responses of natural enemies; these interactions can be …

Decentralization And Health: Case Studies Of Kenya, Pakistan, And The Philippines, Christina E. Lewis, David Clarke, Jd, Maryam Bigdeli, Phd

CwiC Posters

Decentralization, defined by the World Bank (2001) as, “the transfer of authority and responsibility for public functions from the central government to intermediate and local governments or quasi-­‐independent government organizations and/or the private sector,” is a movement that has gained much traction in recent history. For many countries undergoing decentralization, a major driver has been a desire to increase the role and participation of local governments in the decision-­‐making space. In doing this, it is hoped to create governance structures that are more accountable and responsive to the people. For health, decentralization has been touted as a potential way to …

A Hypothetical Model To Predict Nursing Students’ Perceptions Of The Usefulness Of Pre-Service Integrated Management Of Childhood Illness Training, Fannah A. Al-Araimi, Sitwat U. Langrial

Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal

Objectives: This study aimed to test a hypothetical model to predict nursing students’ perceptions of the usefulness of pre-service Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) training and their intention to apply this training in clinical practice. Methods: This study was carried out at the Sur Nursing Institute, Sur, Oman, in May 2015. Using six predefined constructs, a hypothetical structural model was created. The constructs were used as latent variables to highlight their probable impact on intention to apply IMCI-related knowledge and skills in practice. A structured validated questionnaire was subsequently developed to assess the perceptions of nursing students. Factor loadings …

Multi-Level Predictors Of Obesity And Diet In Multi-Ethnic Populations, Tali Elfassy

Open Access Dissertations

The obesity epidemic in the United States is a major public health issue. Poor socio-economic conditions such as poverty or living under financial stress may adversely influence health outcomes such as obesity, and often disproportionately impact ethnic minority populations. Further, individuals living in poverty are often exposed to environments that promote unhealthy diet and obesity. Such obesogenic environments are characterized by increased exposure to foods high in sodium and low in potassium which may also be independently associated with obesity. Yet these associations have not been adequately explored, especially among ethnic minority populations. The current dissertation seeks to explore: 1) …

Effect Of The Butyrate Prodrug Pivaloyloxymethyl Butyrate (An9) On A Mouse Model For Spinal Muscular Atrophy., Jonathan D. Edwards, Matthew E.R. Butchbach

Department of Pediatrics Faculty Papers

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an early-onset motor neuron disease that leads to loss of muscle function. Butyrate (BA)-based compounds markedly improve the survival and motor phenotype of SMA mice. In this study, we examine the protective effects of the BA prodrug pivaloyloxymethyl butyrate (AN9) on the survival of SMNΔ7 SMA mice. Oral administration of AN9 beginning at PND04 almost doubled the average lifespan of SMNΔ7 SMA mice. AN9 treatment also increased the growth rate of SMNΔ7 SMA mice when compared to vehicle-treated SMNΔ7 SMA mice. In conclusion, BA prodrugs like AN9 have ameliorative effects on SMNΔ7 SMA mice.

T-cell receptors (TCRs) have emerged as a new class of therapeutics, most prominently for cancer where they are the key components of new cellular therapies as well as soluble biologics. Many studies have generated high affinity TCRs in order to enhance sensitivity. Recent outcomes, however, have suggested that fine manipulation of TCR binding, with an emphasis on specificity may be more valuable than large affinity increments. Structure-guided design is ideally suited for this role, and here we studied the generality of structure-guided design as applied to TCRs. We found that a previous approach, which successfully optimized the binding of a …

Effects Of Glycosidase（R.B1l And R.Cl） On Configuration Of Isoflavones And Improvement Of Flavor In Soybean Milk, Zhou Weijie, Xia Rong, Zhu Chongyang, Pei Jing, Tao Huiyuan, Cheng Yongqiang

Food and Machinery

In order to obtain a higher content of soybean isoflavone glycosides and improve the flavor of soybean milk, two kinds of glycosidase (R.B1L and R.CL) were used in soybean milk processing, then the soybean isoflavones and lavor compounds were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technique(GC/MS) respectively. The results showed that the amount of soybean isoflavone aglycones increased 7.289 μg/g, which was 35.7% higher than the control group. While, the bean flavor compounds of hexanal and 2-amyl furan decreased 10.8%, and the aroma compounds of hexyl alcohol and anti-2-nonene aldehyde increased 10.88%. It indicates that …

Robustness Of The Potential And Flux Landscapes In Fission Yeast Cell Cycle Networks, Xiaosheng Luo

Theses and Dissertations

Using fission yeast cell cycle as an example, we uncovered that the non-equilibrium network dynamics and global properties are determined by two essential features: the potential landscape and the flux landscape. While potential landscape quantifies the probabilities of different states forming hills and valleys, the flux landscape quantifies the probability fluxes of different loops flowing through states. These two landscapes can be quantified through the decomposition of the dynamics into the detailed balance preserving part and detailed balance breaking non-equilibrium part. While the funneled potential landscape is often crucial for the stability of the single attractor networks, we have uncovered …
