  • The feasibility of respondent-driven sampling with people who use drugs in rural Western Cape, South Africa

    Open AccessTara Carney, Kim Johnson et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    The Western Cape is South Africa’s epicentre for tuberculosis (TB) and smoked drug use such as methamphetamine and methaqualone (Mandrax). Despite this, there are limited studies on people who smoke drugs (PWSD) with TB disease in South Africa, partly due to recruitment challenges. Respondent-driven sampling (RDS) is a network-based sampling method used to recruit such key populations. The aim of this qualitative study is to explore the appropria…

  • Patient and provider perceptions of the relationship between alcohol use and TB and readiness for treatment

    Open AccessSuchitra Kulkarni, Sarah Weber et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    Findings support strengthening accessible, specialized services for the identification and provision of interventions and psychosocial services for unhealthy alcohol use among those with TB

  • Glutamate- and Gaba-Modulated Connectivity in Auditory Hallucinations—A Combined Resting State fMRI and MR Spectroscopy Study

    Open AccessSarah Weber, Helene Hjelmervik et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2021

    Background: Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) have been linked to aberrant interhemispheric connectivity between the left and the right superior temporal gyrus (STG), labeled the interhemispheric miscommunication theory. The present study investigated if interhemispheric miscommunication is modulated at the neurochemical level by glutamate (Glu) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) concentrations in temporal and prefrontal lobe areas, as propose…

  • Dynamic Functional Connectivity Patterns in Schizophrenia and the Relationship With Hallucinations

    Open AccessSarah Weber, Erik Johnsen et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2020

    There is a wealth of evidence showing aberrant functional connectivity (FC) in schizophrenia but with considerable variability in findings across studies. Dynamic FC is an extension of traditional static FC, in that such analyses allow for explorations of temporal changes in connectivity. Thereby they also provide more detailed information on connectivity abnormalities in psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia. The current study investigated…

  • Sources of carbon to suspended particulate organic matter in the northern Gulf of Mexico

    Open AccessKelsey L Rogers, Kelsey Rogers et al.ARTICLEElementa Science of the…2019

    Suspended particulate organic carbon (POCsusp) in the Gulf of Mexico is unique compared to other seas and oceans. In addition to surface primary production, isotopic analysis indicates that microbial cycling of oil and riverine inputs are primary sources of carbon to POCsusp in the Gulf. To characterize POCsusp from seep sites and non-seep north central Gulf (NCG) sites potentially affected by the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) spill, we analyzed 277 an…

  • Enhancing disaster preparedness of specialty nurses on a national scale

    Open AccessMarion Mitchell, Marion L Mitchell et al.ARTICLEDisaster Prevention and…2016

    Purpose – The number of disasters has increased by 30 per cent worldwide in the past 30 years. Nurses constitute the largest clinical group within a hospital and their ability to respond to disasters is crucial to the provision of quality patient care. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate a four-year disaster preparedness partnership between two tertiary hospitals from the perspective of executive staff, senior clinical managers and specialis…
