Abstract

Engaging undergraduate students in scientific research promises substantial benefits, but it is not accessible to all students and is rarely implemented early in college education, when it will have the greatest impact. An inclusive Research Education Community (iREC) provides a centralized scientific and administrative infrastructure enabling engagement of large numbers of students at different types of institutions. The Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science (SEA-PHAGES) is an iREC that promotes engagement and continued involvement in science among beginning undergraduate students. The SEA-PHAGES students show strong gains correlated with persistence relative to those in traditional laboratory courses regardless of academic, ethnic, gender, and socioeconomic profiles. This persistent involvement in science is reflected in key measures, including project ownership, scientific community values, science identity, and scientific networking.

Abstract

I. Introduction 58 II. Constitutional Provisions 62 III. Legislation 64 IV. Common Law 66 A. Teemal v. Guyana Sugar Corp. (1982) 66 B. Rambachan v. Trinidad and Tobago Television Co. [...], It may be taken to be a general principle of Caribbean jurisprudence that foreign states and their agents enjoy certain immunities from the jurisdiction of domestic courts and domestic law enforcement agencies. Clarification of the scope of this immunity is important because of the increasing presence of foreign governmental activity in commercial and economic developmental transactions in the region. Foreign sovereign immunity has not, however, been provided for in the constitution or by the legislature of any independent Commonwealth Caribbean state, (with, possibly, the qualified exception of Belize) and the courts have been left to navigate as best they can through the thorny doctrinal problems to which the subject gives rise. This article surveys the present law as best divined from the sprinkling of potentially relevant constitutional and legislative provisions and common law cases on the subject. This article then considers both the general requirements for legislative intervention as well as recent challenges that strengthen the case for legislative involvement. It echoes what is now a distinct judicial call for amplification of the law by the legislatures in the Caribbean.

Abstract

Abstract Background Plasmodium falciparum can cause a diffuse encephalopathy known as cerebral malaria (CM), a major contributor to malaria associated mortality. Despite treatment, mortality due to CM can be as high as 30% while 10% of survivors of the disease may experience short- and long-term neurological complications. The pathogenesis of CM and other forms of severe malaria is multi-factorial and appear to involve cytokine and chemokine homeostasis, inflammation and vascular injury/repair. Identification of prognostic markers that can predict CM severity will enable development of better intervention. Methods Postmortem serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples were obtained within 2–4 hours of death in Ghanaian children dying of CM, severe malarial anemia (SMA), and non-malarial (NM) causes. Serum and CSF levels of 36 different biomarkers (IL-1β, IL-1ra, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12 (p70), IL-13, IL-15, IL-17, Eotaxin, FGF basic protein, CRP, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IFN-γ, TNF-α, IP-10, MCP-1 (MCAF), MIP-1α, MIP-1β, RANTES, SDF-1α, CXCL11 (I-TAC), Fas-ligand [Fas-L], soluble Fas [sFas], sTNF-R1 (p55), sTNF-R2 (p75), MMP-9, TGF-β1, PDGF bb and VEGF) were measured and the results compared between the 3 groups. Results After Bonferroni adjustment for other biomarkers, IP-10 was the only serum biomarker independently associated with CM mortality when compared to SMA and NM deaths. Eight CSF biomarkers (IL-1ra, IL-8, IP-10, PDGFbb, MIP-1β, Fas-L, sTNF-R1, and sTNF-R2) were significantly elevated in CM mortality group when compared to SMA and NM deaths. Additionally, CSF IP-10/PDGFbb median ratio was statistically significantly higher in the CM group compared to SMA and NM groups. Conclusion The parasite-induced local cerebral dysregulation in the production of IP-10, 1L-8, MIP-1β, PDGFbb, IL-1ra, Fas-L, sTNF-R1, and sTNF-R2 may be involved in CM neuropathology, and their immunoassay may have potential utility in predicting mortality in CM.

Abstract

Background: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) represent significant risk factors for HIV transmission and adverse fetal complications in pregnancy. We tested 240 pregnant women for their HIV serostatus and for the effects of HIV-STI coinfections on CD4+ cell counts and on HIV plasma viral load. The study was conducted at four antenatal clinics in Akure, Ondo State of Nigeria between November 2014 and December 2015. Methods: The HIV-1/2 strip was used for preliminary determination of HIV serostatus and this was followed by a confirmatory Abbott enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) procedure. CD4+ T-cell counts were done by cytometric analysis while viral load was determined by COBAS® AmpliPrep TaqMan HIV-1 procedure. Liver enzymes were determined by an automated chemistry analyzer. Detection of hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), human papilloma virus-6 (HPV-6) and herpes simplex virus type-2 (HSV-2) were determined by ELISA. The syphilis VDRL test was done by the rapid plasma reagin procedure, while Trichomonas vaginalis infection was demonstrated by the wet mount procedure. Infections with Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae were determined respectively by ELISA and by culture on proteose peptone agar supplemented with 5% serum. Results: The results show prevalence of STIs in 33.3% of the 240 study participants; 77.5% for HIV seropositive and 22.5% for seronegative subjects. Trichomonas vaginalis constituted the highest isolate Coinfections in 50% of HIV seropositive subjects and 22.2% for seronegative controls. HIV-HBV coinfection occurred among 7 individuals while HIVHBV-TV coinfection occurred in 4 individuals. The results also showed elevated titers of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine and total bilirubin liver enzymes in both HIV-HBV coinfection and HBV monoinfection. HIV viral loads were twice as high in HIV-HBV coinfection relative to HBV mono- infection. Conclusion: The prevalence of STIs was significantly high at 54.4% among HIV seropositive pregnant women as compared to 14.3% for HIV seronegative pregnant women. T. vaginalis was the highest isolate at 50% in HIV seropositive subjects and may therefore be a driving factor for HIV transmission and susceptibility as very few T. vaginalis infections were recorded in control subjects.
