A critical appraisal of the national housing policy reform and its implementation of the Build Together programme within the Khomas region (1991-2002)
… established the first National Housing Policy (NHP) in 1991. In anticipation of rural-urban migration and subsequent rapid urbanisation of core areas of development (i. e. Windhoek, Walvis Bay and Oshakati), the NHP fostered the institutionalisation of housing schemes for marginalised Namibians …

The use of gestures in the conversations of people with aphasia
… PWA and 21 neurologically healthy participants (NHP) were collected. Participants took part in conversations with two conversation partners (familiar and unfamiliar) and two conversation topics (narrative and procedural). Video samples were analysed for gesture production, speech production, and …

Discovery and characterization of a newly emerged DENV serotype.
… cycle between mosquitos and non-human primates (NHP), and an urban cycle between mosquitos and human hosts. The human-endemic lineages of DENV-1-4 each emerged from sylvatic ancestors maintained in a cycle between NHP and arboreal Aedes mosquitoes. Ancestral strains are still persisting in both …

Reanalysis of the settlement of a levee on soft bay mud
… the performance of the New Hamilton Partnership (NHP) levee in Novato, California. This 11ft high levee was constructed over 30 ft - 40 ft thick layer of San Francisco Bay Mud during a six-month period in 1996. Settlements along the levee crest were monitored over a period of 5.2 years after the …

NONHUMAN PRIMATES AS A TRANSLATIONAL MODEL OF ENDOMETRIOSIS AND ITS EFFECTS ON WOMEN'S HEALTH
… objectives were to use a nonhuman primate (NHP) model of endometriosis to address gaps in knowledge surrounding tissue macrophage function, endometriosis and eutopic endometrium metabolism, and systemic iron metabolism. The overall hypothesis for this research was that macaque NHPs provide a …

On the phase behavior and particle formation in polyimide/solvent/nonsolvent ternary systems
… of H-bonds between N-methylpyrrolidinone (NHP) and water is possible. We found a very good correlation between the B-bond concentrations and the deviations of the specific volume and viscosity from ideal mixing in the NHP/water mixtures.

The Impact Of Mitochondria On Preimplantation Development In The Rhesus Macaque
… animal models instead. The non-human primate (NHP) is the most befitting animal model for human reproduction due to evolutionary closeness and the dramatic similarities in reproductive function and preimplantation development. Furthermore, because studies in human preimplantation development …

Efficacy of using robotics to characterize impaired upper-limb function in a non-human primate model of stroke
… human populations. Non-human primates (NHPs) closely resemble humans and may represent an animal model that could help bridge the translational gap preceding clinical trials. Additionally, robotic technology has been proven to provide objective determination of outcomes in human stroke …

Mirror Neurons are Modulated by Reward Expectation and Grip Force in the Sensorimotor Cortices (S1, M1, PMd, PMv)
… the above work utilizing two non-human primates (NHPs), one male Macaca Radiata (NHP S) and one female Macaca Mulatta (NHP P), that were trained to perform a cued reward level isometric grip force task, where the NHPs had to apply visually cued grip force to move and transport a virtual object. We …

A MATLAB-Based Subject-Specific Framework for Vessel Quantification and Localization in Longitudinal Photoacoustic Neuroimaging
… on data from a single Non-Human Primate (NHP) under 3mA and 8mA peripheral electrical stimulation. The framework integrates frame registration, interactive vessel selection, signal extraction, and amplitude quantification into a single reproducible protocol, implemented as PAI VascuTrack, …

GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF THE ST. KITTS-ORIGIN VERVET MONKEY (CHLOROCEBUS AETHIOPS SSP.) AS A MODEL OF POLYGENIC OBESITY
… vervet monkey as a nonhuman primate (NHP) of polygenic obesity, the human ortholog vervet TNF gene and flanking regions were sequenced and genotyped from 265 monkeys in a closed, pedigreed colony. This revealed a total of 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and one 4 base pair …

Longitudinal Evaluation of Retinal Capillaries in Experimental Glaucoma
… layer (RNFL) over time in a non-human primate (NHP) model of experimental glaucoma (EG). Methods: First, the longitudinal repeatability of quantifying manually segmented RPCs acquired using adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) spit detector imaging was evaluated in healthy NHP …

Evaluating Longitudinal Motor Recovery in Non-Human Primates after Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
… that affect quality of life. Non-human primates (NHP) closely resemble human neuroanatomy and physiology, making them valuable for translational stroke research. Neurobehavioral assessment of NHPs following stroke is critical for understanding recovery patterns, evaluating therapeutic …

Network theory analysis of ethanol self-administering nonhuman primates
… animal models, particularly nonhuman primates (NHPs). NHPs are considered a powerful translational tool that bridge basic science and clinical studies. They are also useful because the morphology of their cerebral cortex is similar to humans. In this work, a network processing pipeline was …

A 24-channel radio frequency receive array for magnetic resonance imaging of primates at 10.5 T
… on RF coil construction for non-human primate (NHP) imaging. A 24-channel RF receive array coil with integrated transmitter is presented, followed by a discussion of its performance, imaging results, and future directions.

Studies of immune biology of the common marmoset: a novel non-human primate transplant model.
… function, with many similarities to human and NHP DC. As with all animal models, specific differences were also identified. In particular, marmoset monocyte-derived DC were maturation-resistant, whereas stem-cell derived DC were semi-mature. This work establishes that marmoset DC exist within …
