چکیده
Outside of England’s Dunswood Hospital, angry shouts erupt from a group of protesters. Their loved ones have died in the clinic from an infection, and they demand to know who is to blame. Is this a worst-case scenario coming true? Fortunately, the scene is fictional. It is part of a video in a course on antimicrobial stewardship [3]. With such training courses, healthcare professionals learn ways to slow the spread of drug-resistant bacteria. Courses like these are urgently needed, because millions of patients worldwide are in danger1.

Possible mechanism of tolerance to ketamine-induced blockade of cortical spreading depression
Ketamine (KET) induced blockade of cortical spreading depression (CSD) declines with repeated KET applications in a way suggesting the development of tolerance. Possible mechanism of this process was studied in 31 rats anestheized with pentobarbital. CSD was elicited by injection of 1µl of 5% KCl into cortex at 15 min intervals and monitored by recording the accompanying slow potential waves....
متن کاملInduction of spreading during fibroblast movement
This paper describes the phenomenon of retraction-induced spreading of embryonic chick heart fibroblasts moving in culture. Measurable criteria of cell spreading (increase in area of the spreading lamella, and total spread area of the cell) are found to change predictably with retraction of a portion of the cell margin. Ruffling activity was found to increase. The leading lamella of a spread fi...
متن کاملEffect of Pentobarbital and Ether on the Spreading Cortical Depression’
WEAK electrical stimulus applied to A the rabbit’s cerebral cortex causes under certain conditions (I) a depression of the spontaneous electrical activity which spreads with low velocity (3-5 mm/min) over the cortex and lasts from I to 3 min. Several repetitions of the stimulus at intervals of 8-10 min may change this spreading cortical depression into a spreading convulsive pattern (2-5). Both...

متن کاملIndigenous knowledge of flood management and floodwater spreading in Qazvin traditional garden; deserves a new look at conservation and restoration
In arid and semi-arid regions of the world including Iran, floodwaters are the main resource to supply irrigation water. Floodwater spreading also plays an effective role in replenishing groundwater, stabilization of alluvial soil, and vegetation restoration. Qazvin traditional garden is an example of such floodwater spreading mechanism, dating back to over a thousand years ago, according to hi...
