The future of diagnostics in Africa
|
Abstract Persistent gaps in access to quality diagnostic tests undermine progress toward improved health outcomes and resilience to disease outbreaks in Africa. Furthermore, resources for strengthening laboratory systems have faced growing constraints owing to recent reductions in official direct financial assistance, highlighting an urgent need to identify investments that are high impact and minimally donor reliant.

Top Food Grade CMC Manufacturers Expand Into Multi-Grade Production to Meet Diverse Market Needs
ZIBO CITY, SHANDONG PROVINCE, CHINA, April 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global market for carboxymethyl cellulose, commonly known as CMC, has seen steady growth in recent years, driven by expanding applications across food processing, pharmaceuticals, personal care, mining, and coatings. Among the various grades available, food grade CMC continues to attract the most attention due to strict regulatory requirements and rising consumer demand for cleaner, more functional food ingredients.
Estate Planning Strategy: How High Net Worth Families Protect and Transfer Wealth
Australia is experiencing the largest intergenerational wealth transfer in its history, with trillions expected to pass between generations over the next two decades. For high-net-worth families, estate planning is essential. It is not just about minimising tax. It is about preserving wealth, protecting assets and maintaining family harmony across generations.
Self-Managed Superannuation Funds for Generational Wealth
“Self-managed superannuation funds offer high net worth Australians unmatched control, flexibility and tax efficiency. When used correctly, they are one of the most effective long-term wealth vehicles available.” — Peter Burgess, CEO, SMSF Association Self-Managed Superannuation Funds are a powerful tool for high-net-worth families looking to grow, protect and transfer wealth.
Planning is key as self-managed superannuation funds enter new phase
Self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) have long been associated with older Australians and small business owners looking for greater control over their retirement savings. But recent data suggests the sector is undergoing a quiet transformation. Alongside tax reforms and persistent compliance challenges, younger people are slowly moving into the SMSF space.
Thematic Investing: A Risk-Based Perspective
?Mathematical formulae have been encoded as MathML and are displayed in this HTML version using MathJax in order to improve their display. Uncheck the box to turn MathJax off. This feature requires Javascript. Click on a formula to zoom. Abstract Thematic investing has grown in popularity even without a clear definition. We propose a risk-based definition of a theme and focus on themes that involve significant transient correlations of residual returns.
Planning a smooth wealth transfer
Australians inherited an estimated $150 billion in 2024, an increase of more than 70 per cent in a decade, according to a JBWere report. According to the report, this number is predicted to grow more rapidly over the coming 20 years to $5.4 trillion. Passing on wealth within modern families can be complex and emotionally challenging, especially those involving divorce, remarriage and blended families. Without careful planning, it can lead to disputes or even legal challenges.
Your future just got a super boost - are you ready?
With the new financial year comes a fresh wave of superannuation changes that could make a real difference to your retirement savings. Let’s talk about what’s changing and how you can make the most of it. The Super Guarantee (SG) rate hits 12% One obvious lift to retirement incomes is the increase in the Super Guarantee rate from 11.5 per cent to 12 per cent – For you, that means more going into your super account.
Volunteering in retirement
Retirement might be just around the corner, or maybe you’ve recently reached that exciting milestone.. As you move into the next phase of your life; a thought might cross your mind: What now? While the idea of unlimited free time sounds wonderful at first, it’s natural to seek new ways to feel engaged, fulfilled and connected. So, when you picture what your ideal retirement looks like, it can be a good time to think about what you still have to offer the world and perhaps consider volunteering.
Your SMSF made simple: A step-by-step guide to compliance
Managing your own super may sound complex, but it doesn’t have to be. For SMSF trustees, staying compliant with regulations can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re juggling investment strategies, audits, and tax reporting. But with the right guidance, it’s possible to simplify the process and run your fund with confidence. At Nexia Perth, we believe in uncomplicating the complicated.
Protecting your SMSF: Key steps elderly trustees should take to safeguard their future
As we age, the way we manage our superannuation needs to change. For elderly SMSF trustees, staying in control of your fund means more than just meeting compliance obligations, it’s about safeguarding your lifestyle, your estate, and your legacy. At Nexia Perth, we work closely with trustees to ensure their super remains a source of stability and strength, not stress. “Your SMSF should evolve with you,” says Robert Luo, Associate Director of Superannuation at Nexia Perth.

The risk of sexual transmission of HIV in individuals with low-level HIV viraemia: a systematic review
Research in context Evidence before this study Low-level viraemia in people living with HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART) has implications for both individual health outcomes (eg, virological failure and HIV drug resistance) and public health messaging around transmission risks. Prevention campaigns such as undetectable=untransmittable provide positive messages that promote treatment adherence and decrease HIV stigma.
The clinical effect of point-of-care HIV diagnosis in infants: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Background Timely diagnosis and treatment of HIV is crucial in HIV-exposed infants to prevent the high rates of mortality seen during the first 2 years of life if HIV is untreated. However, challenges with sample transportation, testing, and result delivery to caregivers have led to long delays in treatment initiation. We aimed to compare the clinical effect of point-of-care HIV testing versus laboratory-based testing (standard of care) in HIV-exposed infants.
Systematic review of the accuracy of plasma preparation tubes for HIV viral load testing

FoxO4 Promotes Early Inflammatory Response Upon Myocardial Infarction via Endothelial Arg1
Methods and Results: We induced MI in wild-type and FoxO4−/− mice. FoxO4−/− mice had a significantly higher post-MI survival, better cardiac function, and reduced infarct size. FoxO4−/− hearts had significantly fewer neutrophils, reduced expression of cytokines, and competitive nitric oxide synthase inhibitor Arg1. We generated conditional FoxO4 knockout mice with FoxO4 deleted in cardiac mycoytes or endothelial cells.
