Abacwaningi bathi igciwane le-COVID-19 lingase liguquke kancane, kwenze ukuthuthukiswa komgomo kube lula
(2023-10-02) ST Communications
Impathamhlaba i-COVID-19 belulokhu luqhubeka kusukela lwaqala ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba 2019 eWuhan, eChina. Ukuqonda nokuqapha ukuguquguquka kofuzo kwegciwane, izici zalo zendawo, nokuzinza kwalo kubaluleke kakhulu ekulawuleni ukusabalala kwesifo futhi ikakhulukazi ekuthuthukisweni komgomo wendawo yonke ohlanganisa zonke izinhlobo ezibhebhethekayo. Kulo mbono, sihlaziye izinhlobo zofuzo ze-SARS-CoV-2 eziphelele ezingama-30,983 ezivela emazweni angama-79 akumazwekazi ayisithupha futhi saqoqwa kusukela zingama-24 kuZibandlela wezi-2019, kuya kumhla ziyi-13 kuNhlaba wezi-2020, ngokusho kwesizindalwazi se-GISAID. Ukuhlaziya kwethu kuveze ubukhona kwezindawo ezihlukile ze-3206, ezinokusabalalisa okufanayo kwezinhlobo zokuguqulwa kwezakhi ezindaweni ezihlukene. Ngokuphawulekayo, imvamisa ephansi yokuguqulwa kwezinguquko eziphindaphindiwe iye yabonwa; izinguquko eziyi-169 kuphela (5.27%) zande ngo-1% kwama-genomes. Nokho, izindawo eziyishumi nane ezinezinguquko zegciwane kakhulu (<10%) sezikhonjiwe ezindaweni ezingafani ezihambisana ne-genome yegciwane; ayisishiyagalombili ku-ORF1ab polyprotein (ku-nsp2, nsp3, isizinda se-transmembrane, i-RdRp, i-helicase, i-exonuclease, ne-endoribonuclease), ama-nucleocapsid protein, kanye ne-protein ngayinye kwamathathu:

Abase-Uganda abane-HIV baphinde babe nephika abalutholi usizo abaludingayo.
(2023-10-02) ST Communications
Abantu abaphila ne-HIV (PLHIV) abathola imishanguzo ye-antiretroviral bandise amathuba okuba nesifo senhliziyo nemithambo yegazi (CVD). Ukuhlanganiswa kwezinsizakalo zephika (HTN), ukuyingozi ehamba phambili ekutholeni i-CVD, emitholampilo ye-HIV kuyanconywa e-Uganda. Umsebenzi wethu wangaphambili ubonise izikhala eziningi ekusetshenzisweni kokunakekelwa okudidiyelwe kwe-HTN ekulashweni kwe-HIV. Kulolu cwaningo, sifuna ukuhlola izithiyo kanye nabagqugquzeli bokuhlanganisa ukuhlolwa nokwelashwa kwe-HTN emitholampilo ye-HIV eMpumalanga ne-Uganda.

Adoption Of Orcid And Other Persistent Identifiers In Kenya, Cote D'ivoire, Nigeria, And Across Africa – Opportunities And Lessons Learned
(2023-10-14) Tembo, Lombe; Havemann, Jo; Ezeike, Ebuka; Iyoha, Owen; Musangi, Peninnah; Coulibaly, Cecile
ORCID is the persistent identifier for researchers to share their accomplishments (research articles, data, etc with funding agencies, publishers, data repositories, and other research workflows. With this session, we aim to assist African researchers, librarians, and institutions in the adoption of digital tools and persistent identifiers for a significant increase of African research discoverability, globally and to increase efficiency in scholarly workflows

African Digital Research Repositories: Mapping the Landscape [preprint]
(2020-03-29) Havemann, Jo; De Mutiis, Anna; Bezuidenhout, Louise; Owango, Joy; Kitchen, Stephanie
The International African Institute (IAI, https://www.internationalafricaninstitute.org) in collaboration with AfricarXiv (https://info.africarxiv.org) present an interactive map of African digital research literature repositories. This drew from IAI’s earlier work from 2016 onwards to identify and list Africa-based institutional repositories that focused on identifying repositories based in African university libraries. Our earlier resources are available at https://www.internationalafricaninstitute.org/repositories. The interactive map extends the work of the IAI to include organizational, governmental and international repositories. It also maps the interactions between research repositories. In this dataset, we focus on institutional repositories for scholarly works, as defined by Wikipedia contributors (March 2020)

AfricArXiv is a community-led digital archive for African research working towards building an Africa-owned open scholarly repository; a knowledge commons of African scholarly works. We are partnering with established scholarly repository services to provide a platform for African scientists of any discipline to present their research findings and connect with other researchers – on the African continent and globally. It is our aim to promote discoverability of African research output according to sfDORA : https://sfdora.org/read/ FAIR principles: https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/ Helsinki Initiative on Multilingualism: https://www.helsinki-initiative.org/en To contextualize the above to the African scholarly community we have postulated 10 African Principles for Open Access in Scholarly Communication: https://info.africarxiv.org/african-oa-principles/
