Abstract:

In these papers I discuss the causal estimation of the effects of fertility and fertility planning developments on mother and child outcomes. A number of concerns are raised with existing identification techniques, and alternative methodologies to consistently estimate the effect of interest are proposed. These concerns and new techniques are illustrated using microdata on slightly more than 43,000,000 births ocurring between 1972 and 2013. In the first substantive chapter (written with Sonia Bhalotra), we discuss the validity of the use of twin births in fertility research. We demonstrate tha

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of recombinant human interleukin-1beta (rHIL-1beta) and interleukin-8 (rHIL-8) on bovine neutrophil migration and degranulation. An in vitro co-culture system was used to study bovine neutrophil migration. This simulative system allowed studying neutrophil migration across endothelium (bovine aorta endothelial cells), extracellular matrix (ECM), and epithelium (MAC-T) in the correct sequences and directions. Quantification of neutrophil migration was carried out by assaying the activity of myeloperoxidase, a major enzyme of neutrophils.

The level of TGF-alpha mRNA was found to increase 2-fold at 2 hours and then return to near basal levels at 10 hours, after treatment with either ligand. Both ligands were also equipotent in a 2 hour dose response assay, with half maximal stimulation seen at 1 nM and m

This hypothesis implicated the human genetic component in the response to infectious disease. Today the involvement of host genetics in TB has been proven unequivocally and, together with enviro

Abstract:

There is a general perception that fertility has been declining over a decade in Lesotho, and this has sparked the debate that fertility transition is drawing closer in Lesotho. The growing concern was stimulated by limited studies showing the effect of socio-economic factors on fertility in Lesotho and variations in proximate determinants. The paper examines recent fertility trends in Lesotho using various demographic techniques of fertility estimation and determines whether the onset of fertility transition has begun in Lesotho. The secondary aim is to assess and control errors in the Lesoth

The forskolin-induced endometrial bicarbonate secretion measured by the Isc on pregnant day 4 was almost abolished by CA inhibitor acetazolamide.

The consequences of the African AIDS epidemic are growing--not just in size--but in complexity.

Taking advantage of a unique situation in rural Malawi, where no one knew their HIV status prior to testing being introduced as part of an ongoing longitudinal survey, I use a quasiexper

Amylin deficiency and diminished post-prandial amylin response have been reported in advanced stages of type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
