MIXED CYTOMEGALOVIRUS GENOTYPES IN HIV-POSITIVE MOTHERS SHOW COMPARTMENTALIZATION AND DISTINCT PATTERNS OF TRANSMISSION TO INFANTS

Mixed cytomegalovirus genotypes in HIV-positive mothers show compartmentalization and distinct patterns of transmission to infants

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the commonest cause of congenital infection and particularly so among infants born to HIV-infected women.Studies of congenital CMV infection (cCMVi) pathogenesis are complicated by the presence of multiple infecting maternal CMV strains, especially in HIV-positive women, and the large, recombinant CMV genome.Using newly dev

Diversity Performance Analysis on Multiple HAP Networks

One of the main Measurement design challenges in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is achieving a high-data-rate transmission for individual sensor devices.The high altitude platform (HAP) is an important communication relay platform for WSNs and next-generation wireless networks.Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques provide the diversity
