Coverage and timing of antenatal care among poor women in 6 Mesoamerican countries
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background: Poor women in the developing world have a heightened need for antenatal care (ANC) but are often the least likely to attend it. This study examines factors associated with the number and timing of ANC visits ... -
Coverage recommendations for methylation analysis by whole genome bisulfite sequencing
(2014)Whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) allows genome-wide DNA methylation profiling but the associated high sequencing costs continue to limit its widespread application. We utilized several high coverage reference data ... -
