Modelling Micro-Elimination: Third-Trimester Tenofovir Prophylaxis for Perinatal Transmission of Hepatitis B in the Remote Dolpa District of Nepal

Hepatitis B (HBV) prevalence is very high in pregnant women in the Dolpa district of Nepal, a region characterised by a remote geographic landscape and low vaccination coverage. Using mathematical modelling, we evaluated the impact of third-trimester tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) prophylaxis on HBV burden and estimated the time required to achieve HBV elimination in Dolpa. 

“We Need Community-Centred, Strongly Ethical Genetic Research”: A Qualitative Investigation of Community Attitudes Toward Autism Genetics

Autism genetics has historically attracted a substantial proportion of autism research funding internationally. However, more recently, several controversies centered on ethical conduct and lack of community consultation have emerged. This has triggered Autistic-led protests for the functional and meaningful inclusion of Autistic voices in the research design.

Experience of gastrostomy using a quality care framework: The example of Rett syndrome

We investigated our data from family questionnaires to see how feeding difficulties related to age, the type of MECP2 mutation, and the use of gastrostomy.

Family resources

Rett Syndrome Association of Australia and ANZACRett are two family-oriented organisations.

Participate in AussieRett

AussieRett is the Australian Rett syndrome research study. We collect information on Australian individuals with Rett syndrome from both families and clinicians

Participate in InterRett / MECP2 Duplication Research

Through InterRett we collect information on individuals with Rett syndrome on a global level. If you are a participant you can complete your questionnaire here.

The Effect of Hypoglycemia on Spectral Moments in EEG Epochs of Different Durations in Type 1 Diabetes Patients

The potential of using an electroencephalogram (EEG) to detect hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes has been investigated in both time and frequency domains. Under hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic clamp conditions, we have shown that the brain's response to hypoglycemic episodes could be described by the centroid frequency and spectral gyration radius evaluated from spectral moments of EEG signals.
