Factors associated with cervical cancer screening in the South African demographic and health surveyNARA Subscribed
Introduction Cervical cancer is South Africa’s second most common cancer among women, yet for complex reasons, Papanicolaou screening uptake remains suboptimal. Only a few studies have explored the interplay between sociodemographic characteristics, women’s empowerment, healthcare access, and lifestyle behaviors in influencing screening participation. We examined the associations between cervical cancer screening uptake and so...
Fast Identification Method for Screening Bacteria from Faecal Samples Using Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION SequencingNARA Subscribed
Most bacterial identification methods require extensive culturing, strain purification and DNA extraction protocols. This leads to additional expenses and time lags when isolating specific bacteria from complex microbiological ecosystems. This study aimed to develop a fast and robust method for identification of lactobacilli, bifidobacteria and Bacteroides in human faecal samples. Bacteria from faecal samples were cultured ana...
Vulnerable Waters are Essential to Watershed ResilienceNARA Subscribed
Watershed resilience is the ability of a watershed to maintain its characteristic system state while concurrently resisting, adapting to, and reorganizing after hydrological (for example, drought, flooding) or biogeochemical (for example, excessive nutrient) disturbances. Vulnerable waters include non-floodplain wetlands and headwater streams, abundant watershed components representing the most distal extent of the freshwater...
