Non-classic metallointercalators with dipyridophenazine: DNA interaction studies and leishmanicidal activity
[Cu(II)(dppz)2(AcOO)]+ and [Zn(II)(dppz)2]2+ bind DNA by intercalation and covalent binding modes. A loss of a dppz unit, which occurs only when DNA is present, justifies such dual binding mode.

SLC40A1 Q248H allele frequencies and associated SLC40A1 haplotypes in three West African population samples.
BACKGROUND:
Ferroportin is a transmembrane protein responsible for iron export from enterocytes and macrophages. Mutation c.744G → T (Q248H), located in exon 6 of the ferroportin gene SLC40A1, is found as a polymorphism in populations of African origin. This mutation has been extensively analysed in African-Americans, but poorly studied in native African populations.

Microsporidia as emerging pathogens and the implication for public health: a 10-year study on HIV-positive and -negative patients.
Despite recent advances in the understanding and diagnosis of emerging microsporidian pathogens, more research is necessary to elucidate their complex epidemiology. In fact, studies that reflect true human-infecting microsporidian prevalence are still inadequate. The present 10-year study was undertaken to examine the occurrence of Microsporidia in 1989 stools, 69 urine and 200 pulmonary specimens from HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients using PCR and DNA sequencing.

Traceability of patient records usage: barriers and opportunities for improving user interface design and data management.
Although IT governance practices (like ITIL, which recommends on the use of audit logs for proper service level management) are being introduced in many Hospitals to cope with increasing levels of information quality and safety requirements, the standard maturity levels of hospital IT departments is still not enough to reach the level of frequent use of audit logs.
