African populations are the most diverse in the world yet are sorely underrepresented in medical genetics research. Here, we examine the structure of African populations using genetic and comprehensive multigenerational ethnolinguistic data from the Neuropsychiatric Genetics of African Populations-Psychosis study (NeuroGAP-Psychosis) consisting of 900 individuals from Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, and Uganda. We find that self-reported language classifications meaningfully tag underlying genetic variation that would be missed with consideration of geography alone, highlighting the importance of culture in shaping genetic diversity. Leveraging our uniquely rich multi-generational ethnolinguistic metadata, we track language transmission through the pedigree, observing the disappearance of several languages in our cohort as well as notable shifts in frequency over three generations. We further find significantly higher language transmission rates for matrilineal groups as compared to patrilineal. We highlight both the diversity of variation within the African continent, as well as how within-Africa variation can be informative for broader variant interpretation; many variants appearing rare elsewhere are common in parts of Africa. The work presented here improves the understanding of the spectrum of genetic variation in African populations and highlights the enormous and complex genetic and ethnolinguistic diversity within Africa.Competing Interest StatementA.R.M. has consulted for 23andMe and Illumina and received speaker fees from Genentech, Pfizer, and Illumina.

(The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2021)
Summary Genetic studies in underrepresented populations identify disproportionate numbers of novel associations. However, most genetic studies use genotyping arrays and sequenced reference panels that best capture variation most common in European ancestry populations. To compare data generation strategies best suited for underrepresented populations, we sequenced the whole genomes of 91 individuals to high coverage as part of the Neuropsychiatric Genetics of African Population-Psychosis (NeuroGAP-Psychosis) study with participants from Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, and Uganda. We used a downsampling approach to evaluate the quality of two cost-effective data generation strategies, GWAS arrays versus low-coverage sequencing, by calculating the concordance of imputed variants from these technologies with those from deep whole-genome sequencing data. We show that low-coverage sequencing at a depth of ≥4× captures variants of all frequencies more accurately than all commonly used GWAS arrays investigated and at a comparable cost. Lower depths of sequencing (0.5–1×) performed comparably to commonly used low-density GWAS arrays. Low-coverage sequencing is also sensitive to novel variation; 4× sequencing detects 45% of singletons and 95% of common variants identified in high-coverage African whole genomes. Low-coverage sequencing approaches surmount the problems induced by the ascertainment of common genotyping arrays, effectively identify novel variation particularly in underrepresented populations, and present opportunities to enhance variant discovery at a cost similar to traditional approaches.

Regularization of Poisson–Boltzmann Type Equations with Singular Source Terms Using the Range-Separated Tensor Format - Benner, Peter; Khoromskaia, Venera; Khoromskij, Boris; Kweyu, Cleophas; Stein, Matthias (SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2021)
In this paper, we present a new regularization scheme for the linearized Poisson–Boltzmann equation (PBE) which models the electrostatic potential of biomolecules in a solvent. This scheme is based on the splitting of the target potential into the short- and long-range components localized in the molecular region by using the range-separated (RS) tensor format [P. Benner, V. Khoromskaia, and B. N. Khoromskij, SIAM J. Comput., 2 (2018), pp. A1034–A1062] for representation of the discretized multiparticle Dirac delta [B. N. Khoromskij, J. Comput. Phys., 401 (2020), 108998] constituting the highly singular right-hand side in the PBE. From the computational point of view our regularization approach requires only the modification of the right-hand side in the PBE so that it can be implemented within any open-source grid-based software package for solving PBE that already includes some FEM/FDM disretization scheme for elliptic PDE and solver for the arising linear system of equations. The main computational benefits are twofold. First, one applies the chosen PBE solver only for the smooth long-range (regularized) part of the collective potential with the regular right-hand side represented by a low-rank RS tensor with a controllable precision. Thus, we eliminate the numerical treatment of the singularities in the right-hand side and do not change the interface and boundary conditions. And second, the elliptic PDE need not be solved for the singular part in the right-hand side at all, since the short-range part of the target potential of the biomolecule is precomputed independently on a computational grid by simple one-dimensional tensor operations. The total potential is then obtained by adding the numerical solution of the PBE for the smooth long-range part to the directly precomputed tensor representation for the short-range contribution. Numerical tests illustrate that the new regularization scheme, implemented by a simple modification of the right-hand side in the chosen PBE solver, improves the accuracy of the approximate solution on rather coarse grids. The scheme also demonstrates good convergence behavior on a sequence of refined grids.

Treatment of tungiasis using a tea tree oil-based gel formulation: protocol for a randomised controlled proof-of-principle trial - Abrha, Solomon; Christenson, Julia K; McEwen, John; Tesfaye, Wubshet; Vaz Nery, Susana; Chang, Aileen Y; Spelman, Tim; Kosari, Sam; Kigen, Gabriel; Carroll, Simon; Heukelbach, Jorg; Feldmeier, Hermann; et al. (BMJ Open, 2021)
Introduction Tungiasis (sand flea disease or jigger infestation) is a neglected tropical disease caused by penetration of female sand fleas, Tunga penetrans, in the skin. The disease inflicts immense pain and suffering on millions of people, particularly children, in Latin America, the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa. Currently, there is no standard treatment for tungiasis, and a simple, safe and effective tungiasis treatment option is required. Tea tree oil (TTO) has long been used as a parasiticidal agent against ectoparasites such as headlice, mites and fleas with proven safety and efficacy data. However, current data are insufficient to warrant a recommendation for its use in tungiasis. This trial aims to generate these data by comparing the safety and efficacy of a 5% (v/w) TTO proprietary gel formulation with 0.05% (w/v) potassium permanganate (KMnO4) solution for tungiasis treatment.Methods and analysis This trial is a randomised controlled trial (RCT) in primary schools (n=8) in South-Western Kenya. The study will include school children (n=88) aged 6–15 years with a confirmed diagnosis of tungiasis. The participants will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive a 3-day two times a day treatment of either 5% TTO gel or 0.05% KMnO4 solution. Two viable embedded sandflea lesions per participant will be targeted and the viability of these lesions will be followed throughout the study using a digital handheld microscope. The primary outcome is the proportion of observed viable embedded sand fleas that have lost viability (non-viable lesions) by day 10 (9 days after first treatment). Secondary outcomes include improvement in acute tungiasis morbidities assessed using a validated severity score for tungiasis, safety assessed through adverse events and product acceptability assessed by interviewing the participants to rate the treatment in terms of effectiveness, side effects, convenience, suitability and overall satisfaction.Ethics and dissemination The trial protocol has been reviewed and approved by the University of Canberra Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC-2019-2114). The findings of the study will be presented at scientific conferences and published in a peer-reviewed journal.Trial registration numbers Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12619001610123); PACTR202003651095100 and U1111-1243-2294.
