GENOMIC MALARIA SURVEILLANCE OF ANTENATAL CARE USERS DETECTS REDUCED TRANSMISSION FOLLOWING ELIMINATION INTERVENTIONS IN MOZAMBIQUE

Genomic malaria surveillance of antenatal care users detects reduced transmission following elimination interventions in Mozambique

Abstract Routine sampling of pregnant women at first antenatal care (ANC) visits could make Plasmodium falciparum genomic surveillance more cost-efficient and convenient in sub-Saharan Africa.We compare the genetic structure of parasite populations sampled from 289 first ANC users and 93 children from the community in Mozambique between 2015 and 20

Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Modulates the Dependence on Age of the Variability of Synchronous Neural Interactions

Recent evidence documented a protective effect of Class II human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DRB1*13 on brain health across the lifespan including evidence of reduced neural network variability relative to non-carriers.Here, in an extension of those findings, we evaluated the influence of a large number of Class I and Class II HLA alleles on aging-rela
