BACKGROUND In lung transplant recipients (LTRs), the measurement of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) load dynamics in the local environment of the lung allograft may offer distinct advantages over their assessment in the peripheral blood compartment. METHODS We compared HCMV load in paired bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and plasma samples in a prospective cohort of LTRs. RESULTS In all, 182 paire...

To investigate an oncogenic mutation of SETBP1 in the evolution from acute myelomonocytic leukemia (M4) to secondary aCML. Clinical data and molecular studies were analyzed of paired aCML and 'normal'DNA from a case with M4. We identified a mutation in SETBP1 (encoding a p.Asp868Ala alteration). The analysis of paired sample indicated that SETBP1 mutation was acquired during leukemic evolution.

An improved method for extraction and analysis of tiamulin is presented to address issues that arose during routine analysis of Type C medicated swine feeds under the current U.S. Food and Drug Administration-Center for Veterinary Medicine (FDA-CVM) approved method. The issues included the need for higher sample throughput and the ability to accommodate a wider variety of feed matrixes. Changes...

In clinical research, comparisons of the results from experimental and control groups are often encountered. The two-sample t-test (also called independent samples t-test) and the paired t-test are probably the most widely used tests in statistics for the comparison of mean values between two samples. However, confusion exists with regard to the use of the two test methods, resulting in their i...

In such experiments, two samples must be taken from the two populations involved. The difference between the sample means provides information about the difference between population means. Two samples are said to be independent if the observations in one are not in any way related to the observations in the other. For instance, animals of the same breed and of similar age are randomly assigned...
