disease, and in other lymphomas. Patients with leukemia and lymphoma, but not carcinomas, also reacted with extracts of tumor-derived lymphoid cell lines. Studies of in vitro cell-mediated cytotoxicity against autologous tumor cells, using the 51Cr release assay, also gave evidence for reactivity against tumor-associated antigens. In humoral and cell-mediated cytotoxicity assays against lymphoi...

متن کاملMulti-drug resistant non-typhoidal Salmonella associated with invasive disease in western Kenya
Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) is a leading cause of bloodstream infections in Africa, but the various contributions of host susceptibility versus unique pathogen virulence factors are unclear. We used data from a population-based surveillance platform (population ~25,000) between 2007-2014 and NTS genome-sequencing to compare host and pathogen-specific factors between individuals presenting wi...
متن کاملFactors associated with uptake of infant male circumcision for HIV prevention in western Kenya.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Three randomized trials demonstrated male circumcision decreases female-to-male HIV incidence by 60%. Male circumcision research in sub-Saharan Africa has focused on adolescents and adults. Modeling suggests infant male circumcision (IMC) will be cost saving for HIV prevention in high to moderate seroprevalent regions. This study examined parental decision-making and d...
