Leishmaniasis is a debilitating and often fatal neglected tropical disease. Males from sub-populations of the Leishmania-harbouring sandfly, Lutzomyia longipalpis, produce the diterpene sex and aggregation pheromone, sobralene, for which geranylgeran...

Journal Article
Irizar, P., Pan, D., Kapadia, D., Bécares, L., Sze, S., Taylor, H., …Pareek, M. (2023). Ethnic inequalities in COVID-19 infection, hospitalisation, intensive care admission, and death: a global systematic review and meta-analysis of over 200 million study participants. eClinicalMedicine, 57, Article 101877. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eclinm.2023.101877

Background: COVID-19 has exacerbated existing ethnic inequalities in health. Little is known about whether inequalities in severe disease and deaths, observed globally among minoritised ethnic groups, relates to greater infection risk, poorer prognos...
