Qualitative analysis of palliative care for pediatric patients with cancer at Bugando Medical Center: An evaluation of barriers to providing end-of-life care in a resource-limited setting
(Journal of Global Oncology, 2018-03-01)Purpose Palliative care remains an urgent, neglected need in the developing world. Global disparities in end-of-life care for children, such as those with advanced cancers, result from barriers that are complex and largely ... -
Qualitative analysis of the interdisciplinary interaction between data analysis specialists and novice clinical researchers.
(PLoS One, 2010-02-24)BACKGROUND: The inherent complexity of statistical methods and clinical phenomena compel researchers with diverse domains of expertise to work in interdisciplinary teams, where none of them have a complete knowledge in their ... -
Quality assurance for HIV point-of-care testing and treatment monitoring assays.
(Afr J Lab Med, 2016)In 2015, UNAIDS launched the 90-90-90 targets aimed at increasing the number of people infected with HIV to become aware of their status, access antiretroviral therapies and ultimately be virally suppressed. To achieve these ... -
Quality control autophagy: a joint effort of ubiquitin, protein deacetylase and actin cytoskeleton.
(Autophagy, 2010-05)Autophagy has been predominantly studied as a nonselective self-digestion process that recycles macromolecules and produces energy in response to starvation. However, autophagy independent of nutrient status has long been ... -
