Equity in antenatal care quality
BACKGROUND: Emerging data show that many low-income and middle-income country (LMIC) health systems struggle to consistently provide good-quality care. Although monitoring of inequalities in access to health services has been the focus of major international efforts, inequalities in health-care quality have not been systematically examined. METHODS: Using the most recent (2007-16) Demographic and Health Surveys and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surv…
High-quality health systems in the Sustainable Development Goals era
and respecting all workers to deliver the best care possible. Fourth, governments and civil society should ignite demand for quality in the population to empower people to hold systems accountable and actively seek high-quality care. Additional targeted actions in areas such as health financing, management, district-level learning, and others can complement these efforts. What works in one setting might not work elsewhere, and improvement efforts…
Portuguese American gay men in southeastern Massachusetts
In this study, we examined the lived experiences of an understudied subgroup, Portuguese American gay men, within the context of sexual script theory. We employed a phenomenological study design with eight men to provide a more in-depth analysis of their sociocultural sexual behaviours. Recruitment was conducted through word of mouth and a snowball approach beginning with two well-known HIV education and prevention outreach centres in southeaster…

Patents, Promotions, and Protocols
Scientific representations include a diverse and confusing array of maps, descriptions, diagrams, and protocols. This study examines and compares the practical and communicative uses of such artifacts. The main source of material is the authors' ethnographic research on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a laboratory routine that has numerous scientific, medical, and forensic applications. Contextually relative versions of PCR are examined: sch…
The Dissemination, Standardization and Routinization of a Molecular Biological Technique
The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a molecular biological technique for `amplifying' selected DNA sequences. In the decade after its invention, PCR has worked its way into numerous fields of practice. It was one of the DNA-profiling techniques which were subjected to detailed, critical scrutiny during the OJ Simpson trial. In this paper we `follow the technique around' to investigate how PCR is adapted to different circumstances in science, m…
Instructed actions in, of and as molecular biology
L'affaire Williams
En 1991, dans le procès criminel « New Jersey contre Williams », de nouvelles méthodes d'identification du sang du suspect furent utilisées. Selon la législation en vigueur aux Etats-Unis à l'époque, une audience préliminaire fut organisée afin de déterminer l'admissibilité des preuves issues des procédés d'identification par l'ADN. L'accusation "fit appel à neuf témoins considérés comme spécialistes dans les domaines scientifiques concernés. Tou…
