Film adaptation of the post-apartheid South African novel: re-examining the aesthetics of creation of disgrace by Sawadogo, Denis

“…Central to the thesis is the argument that a re-examination of Steve Jacobs's feature film Disgrace unveils the inconsistency and inadequacy of the fidelity rhetoric as a language for adaptation criticism, positions the film as an independent genre with its specificity and poeticity, and allows for an intertextual dialogue with other post-apartheid South African and postcolonial African cinematic productions as a means of promoting adaptation criticism beyond the fidelity model. …”

The prognostic value of HIV viral load in predicting viraemic outcomes of post-partum women on antiretroviral therapy: a secondary analysis of two randomised controlled trials from... by Egan, Daniel

“…Similarly, current VL >200 was a good predictor of VL >1000 at the next visit, with an odds ratio of 26.1 (95% CI: 21.4-31.8), a sensitivity of 64%, and specificity of 94%. Cox proportional hazards analysis found that viraemia in the range of 50-999 copies/ml at the first study visit post-partum was associated with an increased hazard of two consecutive VL >1000 over the study period, when compared to participants with VL <50 at the same timepoint (HR: 1.75; 95% CI: 1.3-2.4; p<0.001). …”
