Bypassing primary antiretroviral therapy centres in Sub-Saharan Africa: An integrative review of the theoretical and empirical literature.

The uptake of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is critical to meeting the global HIV treatment goal of 95-95-95 by 2025. Although a few Sub-Saharan African countries have already achieved this target, the prevalence of bypassing primary ART centres in many countries in the subregion has negative implications for ART uptake and use. This study used the access to health services framework to analyse the evidence and factors contributing to bypassing primary ART centres by individuals in the sub-region seeking HIV care and support.

Sensory evaluation and consumption preferences of high-protein natural yoghurts among students of dietetics.

Background: High-protein yoghurts, are recommended by dieticians as a valuable source of wholesome protein. Consumers' expectations of yoghurts are intrinsically linked to the perceived quality and health benefits of these products.

Objective: The aim of this research study was the sensory analysis and evaluation of consumer preferences towards commercially available high-protein natural yoghurts.

Erythropoietin-dependent Acquisition of CD71 CD105 Phenotype within CD235a Early Erythroid Progenitors.

The development of committed erythroid progenitors and their continued maturation into mature erythrocytes requires the cytokine erythropoietin (Epo). Here, we describe the immunophenotypic identification of a unique Epo-dependent colony-forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E) cell subtype that forms during early erythropoiesis (EE). This previously undescribed CFU-E subtype, termed late-CFU-E (lateC), lacks surface expression of the characteristic erythroid marker CD235a (glycophorin A) but has high levels of CD71 and CD105.

The POU-HD TFs impede the replication efficiency of several human papillomavirus genomes.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double-stranded DNA virus that infects cutaneous and mucosal epithelial cells. HPV replication initiates at the origin (ori), located within a noncoding region near the major early promoter. Only two viral proteins, E1 and E2, are essential for replication, with the host cell contributing other necessary factors.
