Q Fever, Scrub Typhus, and Rickettsial Diseases in Children, Kenya, 2011-2012.
(Emerg Infect Dis, 2016-05)To increase knowledge of undifferentiated fevers in Kenya, we tested paired serum samples from febrile children in western Kenya for antibodies against pathogens increasingly recognized to cause febrile illness in Africa. ... -
QED radiative effects in the processes of exclusive photon electroproduction from polarized protons with the next-to-leading accuracy
(Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2014-08-01)Radiative effects in the electroproduction of photons in polarized ep scattering are calculated with next-to-leading-order accuracy. The contributions of loops and two-photon emission are presented in analytical form. The ... -

QTL Mapping in Three Rice Populations Uncovers Major Genomic Regions Associated with African Rice Gall Midge Resistance.
(PLoS One, 2016)African rice gall midge (AfRGM) is one of the most destructive pests of irrigated and lowland African ecologies. This study aimed to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with AfRGM pest incidence and resistance ... -

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 ... -
Quality of Care and Outcomes for Patients With Stroke in the United States Admitted During the International Stroke Conference.
(Journal of the American Heart Association, 2018-11)Background Patients presenting to hospitals during non-weekday hours experience worse outcomes, often attributed to reduced staffing. The American Heart Association International Stroke Conference ( ISC ) is well attended ... -
Quality of Life and Recommendations for Further Care.
(Crit Care Med, 2016-11)OBJECTIVES: Physician recommendations for further medical treatment or palliative treatment only at the end of life may influence patient decisions. Little is known about the patient characteristics that affect physician-assessed ... -
Quantifiable biomarkers of normal aging in the Japanese medaka fish (Oryzias latipes).
(PLoS One, 2010-10-11)BACKGROUND: Small laboratory fish share many anatomical and histological characteristics with other vertebrates, yet can be maintained in large numbers at low cost for lifetime studies. Here we characterize biomarkers associated ... -
Quantification of biological aging in young adults.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2015-07-28)Antiaging therapies show promise in model organism research. Translation to humans is needed to address the challenges of an aging global population. Interventions to slow human aging will need to be applied to still-young ... -
Quantification of DNA cleavage specificity in Hi-C experiments.
(Nucleic Acids Res, 2016-01-08)Hi-C experiments produce large numbers of DNA sequence read pairs that are typically analyzed to deduce genomewide interactions between arbitrary loci. A key step in these experiments is the cleavage of cross-linked chromatin ... -
Quantification of Mixed-Layer Clays in Multiple Saturation States Using NEWMOD2: Implications for the Potassium Uplift Hypothesis in the SE United States
(Clays and Clay Minerals, 2020-02-01)© 2020, The Clay Minerals Society. Quantification of mineral assemblages in near-surface Earth materials is a challenge because of the often abundant and highly variable crystalline and chemical nature of discrete clay minerals. ... -
Quantification of Peat Thickness and Stored Carbon at the Landscape Scale in Tropical Peatlands: A Comparison of Airborne Geophysics and an Empirical Topographic Method
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2019-12-01)©2019. The Authors. Peatlands play a key role in the global carbon cycle, sequestering and releasing large amounts of carbon. Despite their importance, a reliable method for the quantification of peatland thickness and volume ... -
Quantification of the Binding Properties of Cu2+ to the Amyloid Beta Peptide: Coordination Spheres for Human and Rat Peptides and Implication on Cu2+-Induced Aggregation
(2010)There is no consensus on the coordinating ligands for Cu2+ by A beta. However, the differences in peptide sequence between human and rat have been hypothesized to alter metal ion binding in a manner that alters Cu2+-induced ... -
Quantification of the pace of biological aging in humans through a blood test, the DunedinPoAm DNA methylation algorithm.
(eLife, 2020-05-05)Biological aging is the gradual, progressive decline in system integrity that occurs with advancing chronological age, causing morbidity and disability. Measurements of the pace of aging are needed as surrogate endpoints ...
