Heavy-flavour production at forward rapidity as a function of charged-particle multiplicity with ALICE at the LHC by Mhlanga, Sibaliso

“…Therefore, the measurement of heavy-flavour hadrons as a function of charged-particle multiplicity gives insight into the mechanisms influencing their production in hadronic collisions at these energies and is a tool to test the influence of MPIs. …”

Investigating the functionality of candidate susceptibility genes in ophthalmoplegic myasthenia gravis using patient-derived material by Moyakhe, Lihle Bayavuya

“…Previously, in efforts to understand the pathophysiology of this subphenotype, whole-exome sequencing was undertaken which identified amongst others a putatively functional multi-allelic deletion in the 5’ untranslated regulatory region of the ST8SIA1 gene. …”

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis KatG gene : identification of a novel function and analysis of the regulation of expression by Mulder, Michelle Anne

“…UV sensitivity tests on M intracellulare and M tuberculosis strains mutant in katG revealed that the katG gene product does not play a demonstrable role in the survival of repair-competent mycobacterial cells after exposure to UV irradiation. …”

Comparison of resting state functional networks in HIV infected and uninfected children at age 9 years by Stoltsz, Werner Heinrich

“…Disruption to visual cortex is marked, consistent with indications from neuropsychological testing that visual perception is disrupted. The profile of HIV- and/or ART-related effects on FC differs considerably between the two ages of 7 and 9 years, but both show characteristics of immature functional organisation compared with age-matched controls.…”

Effects of aminophylline therapy on urine output and renal function in children with acute kidney injury in an African setting by Nyann, Beatrice Irene

“…There was no significant change in serum creatinine levels six hours pre and post- aminophylline administration [109(77,227), 125.5(82,200) micromole/l] respectively, p=0.135. Sixteen out of the thirty-five children (45.7%) required renal replacement therapy.…”

Cognitive therapy, working memory training, and the treatment of Methamphetamine Use Disorder - a functional MRI study by Dias, Angelo Ridge

“…Significant differences were also observed under FDR correction on a posthoc test on the CT group (in contrast to the NT group) indicating significantly less activity in the left lingual gyrus, left posterior declive, and right cuneus. 5 Conclusions: The findings tentatively suggest that the working memory training adjunct may have slightly enhanced working memory maintenance brain function relative to the treatment as usual group post-intervention. …”
