3. The polymorphism of the minisatellite system D2S44
Abstract : The polymorphism of the minisatellite system D2S44 comprises all the polymorphisms typical for a minisatellite sequence; from variation in fragment length caused by a restriction site polymorphism or due to variation in the number of a repeated core sequence, to a core sequence polymorphism comprising four variants and variation in the order in which these variants are iterated in tandem. All these polymorphisms can be utilised in paternity investigations, and analysis of the order of variant repeats in parent-child combinations showed that the D2S44 incompatibilities found are due to a mutation in the parental allele.

4. Cervical cancer in Zimbabwe : viral and host factors : studies on pathogenesis of cervical cancer in Zimbabwe with special reference to type-specific human paillomavirus (HPV) infection and human cytokine gene polymorphisms
Abstract : Invasive cervical cancer (ICC) is the commonest cancer affecting Zimbabwean women. The recognition of the central role of the human papilloma virus (HPV) in the aetiopathogenesis of cervical cancer has led to application of HPV testing in the cervical screening and to the development of HPV vaccines for primary prevention of ICC.

5. Microbiota of the alimentary tract of children - implications for allergy and inflammatory bowel disease
Abstract : Allergy, which is the most common chronic disease in Swedish children and adolescents, is associated with a high standard of living and Western lifestyle. According to the hygiene hypothesis, allergy is due to inadequate stimulation of the immune system by microbes during early childhood, leading to failed maturation of the immune system. READ MORE
