Measures of viral load using Abbott RealTime HIV-1 Assay on venous and fingerstick dried blood spots from provider-collected specimens in Malawian District Hospitals

Viral suppression is a key indicator of antiretroviral therapy (ART) response among HIV-infected patients. Dried blood spots (DBS) are an appealing alternative to conventional plasma-based virologic testing, improving access to monitoring in resource-limited settings. However, validity of DBS obtained from fingerstick in field settings remains unknown

Transit planning and social (in)justice: an equity and accessibility analysis of IndyGo's BRT system

The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system has become a popular sustainable mass transport system globally in recent decades. Its unique features that promote sustainable mobility have made it widely embraced. Additionally, it offers progressive benefits such as improving access to social amenities for everyone, especially households with no car available and people living below the poverty line. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the equity of accessibility to social amenities across different socio-economic groups within a 20-minute walking distance of IndyGo's Red Line stations. This study employed a quantitative methodological approach, using spatial and statistical methods, to assess the effects of the Red Line on vertical equity. A GIS-based network analysis (service area analysis and O-D cost matrix analysis) was used to estimate physical accessibility while Lorenz curve and Gini-index were used to measure inequity levels across census block groups within the study area. It was found that the Red Line in Indianapolis has succeeded in promoting equity within the population it was meant to serve in terms of physical accessibility to social amenities with all census block group within the service area having equal access of a 30-minute drive time.M.

Comparison of Results Obtained with Amplicor HIV-1 DNA PCR Test Version 1.5 Using 100 versus 500 Microliters of Whole Blood▿

The Amplicor HIV-1 DNA PCR assay (Roche Diagnostics, Branchburg, NJ) requires 500 μl of whole blood for a diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, and this amount is often difficult to obtain from infants. A comparison was performed using 100 and 500 μl of whole blood from infants less than 18 months of age. The concordance rate for HIV DNA PCR-negative and -positive samples was 100% for the two different volumes

APLIKASI ALGORITMA KOLONI LEBAH DAN ALGORITMA GENETIKA DALAM PENDISTRIBUSIAN HASIL PRODUKSI UKM KERUPUK ”METUK”

Algoritma Koloni Lebah merupakan algoritma yang terinspirasi dari tingkah laku lebah dalam proses pencarianmakanan. Algoritma Genetika merupakan metode yang belandaskan pada mekanisme seleksi alam. Kedua Algoritmaini akan digunakan untuk mencari rute pendistribusian hasil produksi UKM kerupuk Metuk sehingga didapatkan rutedengan waktu optimum. Langkah penentuan rute optimum dengan Algoritma Koloni Lebah adalah menentukanparameter, menentukan rute awal, pengujian rute dengan aturan forage, mengupdate rute dengan rute waktuminimum, kemudian mengulangi langkah-langkah tersebut hingga diperoleh rute paling optimum. Langkahpenentuan rute optimum dengan Algoritma Genetika adalah mendefinisikan rute ke dalam individu dalam sebuahpopulasi, menghitung nilai fitness individu, menentukan induk dari individu dengan seleksi ranking, melakukanorder cross over pada induk yang terpilih, menghasilkan individu baru dengan swapping mutation, menyusunpopulasi baru sampai memperoleh individu dengan nilai fitness optimum. Hasil penelitian ini adalah rute optimumpendistribusian dengan algoritma koloni lebah yaitu (A B C D E F G H I R Q P N M L J K O S T U VW X Y Z AA AB A) dengan waktu optimum 237,27 menit. Rute optimum dengan Algoritma Genetika adalah (A B C D E F G H I R Q P N O M L K J S T U V W X Y Z AA AB A) dengan waktu pendistribusian237,2 menit
