Background: In application studies of latent class analysis (LCA) evaluating imperfect diagnostic tests, residual dependence among the diagnostic tests still remain even after conditioning on the true disease status due to measured variables known to affect prevalence and/or alter diagnostic test accuracy.Presence of severe comorbidities such as HI
Feasibility and acceptability of a novel biomedical device to prevent neonatal hypothermia and augment Kangaroo Mother Care in Kenya: Qualitative analysis of focus group discussions and key Informant Interviews.
Hypothermia is a leading newborn complication, especially among premature and/or low birth weight infants.Within low/middle-income countries where incubators and radiant warmers are Consumers behaviour of students when shopping for organic food in the Czech Republic often in short supply, leading to gaps in the thermal care chain, neonatal hypother
Guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase I deficiency: a rare cause of hyperphenylalaninemia
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) deficiencies are a heterogeneous group of disorders caused by a defect in two of the three enzymes involved in its biosynthesis or in the two recycling enzymes.Except for the deficiency of dehydratase, an enzyme catalyzing a reaction in the recycling pathway, all other variants of BH4 deficiency are characterized by develo
