OBJECTIVES To determine the impact of insecticide-treated curtains (ITC) on all-cause child mortality (6-59 months) over a period of six years. To determine whether initial reductions in child mortality following the implementation of ITC are sustained over the longer term or whether "delayed" mortality occurs. METHODS A rural population of ca 100 000 living in an area with high, seasonal Pla...

Abstract Binary rewriting consists in disassembling a program to modify its instructions. However, existing solutions suffer from shortcomings terms of soundness and performance. We present SaBRe , load-time system for selective binary rewriting. rewrites specific constructs—particularly calls functions—when the is loaded into memory, intercepts them using plugins through simple API. also discu...

BACKGROUND There are no published reports on studies comparing itraconazole (ITC), sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (cotrimoxazole, CMX), and ITC followed by CMX (ITC/CMX) in the treatment of paracoccidiodomycosis. This study aimed to compare the efficacy, effectiveness, safety and time to clinical and serologic cure in paracoccidioidomycosis patients treated with ITC or CMX, the antifungal agents...

OBJECTIVE & METHODOLOGY The current study evaluated the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Insecticide Treated Curtain (ITC) deployment for reducing dengue vector infestation levels in the Cuban context with intensive routine control activities. A cluster randomized controlled trial took place in Guantanamo city, east Cuba. Twelve neighborhoods (about 500 households each) were selected amo...

Insular thyroid carcinoma (ITC) is an uncommon thyroid malignancy with an unclear prognosis. The aim of this study was to determine the prognoses of patients with ITC. We investigated a large cohort of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database who were registered between 2004 and 2013, and compared the prognosis of patients ...

background: pregnancy is a unique experience for woman and her family. beside her body physiological changes in pregnancy influence emotion of pregnant woman. therefore, emotion of mother has changed which is result in anxiety feeling. according to unfavorable impact of anxiety on mother, fetus and outcome of pregnancy, this study designed to consider anxiety in nuliparous women based on hbm co...

Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations have expanded our ability to investigate interfacial thermal transport and quantify the conductance (ITC) across solid fluid interfaces. NEMD studies highlighted importance of degrees freedom need include effects beyond traditional theoretical methods that rely on bulk properties. often use explicit hot cold thermostats set up gradients. We analyse...
