TL;DR: AAP and its negative health effects have been understudied in SSA compared with other continents, and limited direct measurements of air pollutants indicate that AAP in SAA cities is high compared with international standards.
Journal ArticleDOI
Illumina and Nanopore methods for whole genome sequencing of hepatitis B virus (HBV).

TL;DR: While Illumina sequencing may still be the most accurate way to capture within-sample diversity, Nanopore data can contribute to an understanding of linkage between polymorphisms within individual virions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of hepatitis B virus (HBV) drug and vaccine escape mutations in Africa: A call for urgent action.
Jolynne Mokaya,Anna L McNaughton,Martin J. Hadley,Apostolos Beloukas,Anna Maria Geretti,Dominique Goedhals,Philippa C Matthews,Philippa C Matthews +7 more
TL;DR: Overall, there is an urgent need for improved diagnostic screening, enhanced laboratory assessment of HBV before and during therapy, and sustained roll out of tenofovir in preference to lamivudine alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jolynne Mokaya,Anna L McNaughton,Lela Burbridge,Tongai Maponga,Geraldine O'Hara,Monique Andersson,Janet Seeley,Philippa C Matthews,Philippa C Matthews +8 more
TL;DR: Stigma is a potentially major barrier to the successful implementation of preventive, diagnostic and treatment strategies for HBV infection, and yet a ‘blind spot’ is highlighted, representing a lack of data and limited recognition of this challenge.
