Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative immunogenicity of a PreS/S hepatitis B vaccine in non- and low responders to conventional vaccine.
Pamela Rendi-Wagner,Daniel Shouval,Blaise Genton,Yoav Lurie,Hans Rümke,Greet J. Boland,Andreas Cerny,Markus H. Heim,Doris Bach,Manfred Schroeder,Herwig Kollaritsch +10 more
TL;DR: This trial tests the ability of a third-generation vaccine, containing PreS1 and PreS2 antigens in addition to the S antigen, to elicit seroprotective titres in documented non- and low-responders, compared with those to a conventional vaccine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective Study of a Serogroup X Neisseria meningitidis Outbreak in Northern Ghana
Sebastien Gagneux,Abraham Hodgson,Thomas J. Smith,Thierry Wirth,Ingrid Ehrhard,Giovanna Morelli,Blaise Genton,Fred Binka,Mark Achtman,Gerd Pluschke +9 more
TL;DR: The occurrence of serogroup X outbreaks argues for the inclusion of this serogroups into a multivalent conjugate vaccine against N. meningitidis, and three closely related clusters with distinct patterns of spread were identified among the Ghanian isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the role of naturally acquired antibody levels to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein-1 in protecting Papua New Guinean children from malaria morbidity.
F. Al-Yaman,Blaise Genton,Kenton J. Kramer,Sandra P. Chang,George Hui,Moses Baisor,Michael P. Alpers +6 more
TL;DR: A reduction in the incidence rate of clinical malaria observed in individuals with high antibody concentration to MSP-1 may be due to antibodies directed against epitopes within the C-terminal region of M SP-1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low quality of routine microscopy for malaria at different levels of the health system in Dar es Salaam
Judith Kahama-Maro,Valérie D'Acremont,Deo Mtasiwa,Blaise Genton,Blaise Genton,Christian Lengeler,Christian Lengeler +6 more
TL;DR: The quality of routine microscopy was poor in all health facilities, regardless of their level, and over-diagnosis was massive, with many false positive results reported as very low parasitaemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
A single LC-tandem mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous determination of 14 antimalarial drugs and their metabolites in human plasma.
Eva Maria Hodel,Boris Zanolari,Thomas Mercier,Jérôme Biollaz,Jennifer Keiser,Piero Olliaro,Blaise Genton,Laurent A. Decosterd +7 more
TL;DR: A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method requiring 200mul of plasma for the simultaneous determination of 14 antimalarial drugs and their metabolites which are the components of the current first-line combination treatments for malaria is developed.
