Mental health services in Ethiopia: emerging public health
(WB Saunders, 2011)
Summary: Objectives: Examine the mental health issues in Ethiopia in relation to services offered in
this direction.
Study Design: Retrospective.
Methods: Results of the 2005 Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey and ...
An O−C (and light travel time) method suitable for application to large photometric databases
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
The standard method of studying period changes in variable stars is to study the timing
residuals or O−C values of light-curve maxima or minima. The advent of photometric surveys
for variability, covering large parts of ...
Multicolour time series photometry of four short-period weak-lined T Tauri stars
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The paper describes continuous photometric monitoring of four pre-main-sequence stars,
probable members of young stellar associations. Measurements, covering at least four nights
per star, were obtained by cycling through ...
Multicolour time series photometry of the variable star 1SWASP J234401.81−212229.1
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
1SWASP J234401.81-212229.1 may be one of a handful of contact binaries comprising two
Mdwarfs. Modelling of the available observations is complicated by the fact that the radiation
of the eclipsing system is dominated ...
A Panel of Ancestry Informative Markers for the Complex Five-Way Admixed South African Coloured Population
(PloS, 2013)
Admixture is a well known confounder in genetic association studies. If genome-wide data is not available, as would be the case for candidate gene studies, ancestry informative markers (AIMs) are required in order to adjust ...
Epidemiological analysis of spatially misaligned data: a case of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus outbreak in Nigeria
(Cambridge University Press, 2013)
This research is focused on the epidemiological analysis of the transmission of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus outbreak in Nigeria. The data included 145 outbreaks together with the locations of ...
Spectroscopy of the variable K-dwarf UNSW-V-760: is it a pre-main-sequence pulsator?
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
The star UNSW-V-760 is a known variable, showing both flares and two non-sinusoidal
periodicities. Availability of high signal-to-noise spectra reported in this paper has enabled
a revision of the spectral type of this ...
BDNF Val66Met modifies the risk of childhood trauma on obsessive-compulsive disorder
(Elsevier, 2013)
Childhood trauma has been linked to the development of later psychopathology, including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Although evidence exists to suggest that genetic and environmental factors are involved in the ...
Variants within the COMP and THBS2 genes are not associated with Achilles tendinopathy in a case-control study of South African and Australian populations
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)
Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein is a structural protein of the extracellular matrix, while thrombospondin-2 is a matricellular protein involved in cell–matrix interactions. Recent studies have shown that genetic variation ...
On multiple classes of gamma-ray bursts, as deduced from autocorrelation functions or bivariate duration/hardness ratio distributions
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
Autocorrelation functions (ACFs) of 119 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) monitored by the Burst
Alert Telescope (BAT) on Swift are calculated. Contrasting with previous results for smaller
numbers of bursts from other missions, ...
