background: fusobacterium necrophorum as a non-spore-forming gram-negative anaerobic bacillus is an important human and animal pathogen. it may cause severe systemic infections (lemierre's syndrome) and some other infections. the aim of this study was to subtype fusobacterium necrophorum by using pcr methods. materials and methods: twenty five strains of fusobacterium necrophorum subspecies fun...

bk virus (bkv) is a polyomavirus with seroprevalence in adults, ranging from 60 to 100%. it is considered as usual cause of renal dysfunction after the allograft renal transplantation nephropathy. potent immunosuppressive therapy in kidney transplantation can lower the rate of acute rejection. therefore, untreated bkv infections lead to kidney allograft dysfunction or loss. in order to estimate...

background preventing the seasonal or pandemic outbreak of influenza can be powerful and cost-effective. objectives in this study, we constructed a novel virus-like particle (vlp) platform that contains two hemagglutinin (ha) subtypes and evaluated immunogenicity of constructed vlp in mice. materials and methods this recombinant candidate vaccine model resulted in the expression of two has of h...

There is no consistency in the terms used to refer syndrome of spatial neglect, with different as a whole or one its subtypes. are hundreds neglect tools available. However many not able differentiate presenting It important for clinicians and researchers critically evaluate being screening diagnosis neglect. The objective this review capture reported definitions subtypes after stroke map range...

Hypoxia is a universal feature in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Nonetheless, heterogeneous hypoxia patterns of TME have still not been elucidated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Using consensus clustering algorithm and public datasets, we identified subtypes. We also revealed specific biological clinical characteristics via bioinformatic methods. The principal component analysis was employe...

ABSTRACT: In this retrospective and prospective study, histopathological immunohistochemical analyses of 62 cases lymphomas in cats were performed to classify the anatomic forms subtypes, according WHO guidelines, correlate it FeLV proviral DNA detected using PCR. The most common anatomical form was gastrointestinal (40.3%, 25/62), followed by multicentric (29%, 18/62), mediastinal (17.7%, 11/6...

The study investigated, with an adult sample, the hypothesis that differences between subtypes of ADHD on neuropsychological tests contribute to the poor separation of ADHD and healthy groups on tests of this kind. Groups of ADHD inattentive (n=16) and combined (n=16) subtypes were carefully identified using DSM-IV criteria, and their performance on 14 measures of attention, memory, and executi...

One of the major challenges faced in defining clinically applicable and homogeneous molecular tumor subtypes is assigning biological and/or clinical interpretations to etiological (intrinsic) subtypes. The conventional approach involves at least three steps: Firstly, identify subtypes using unsupervised clustering of patient tumours with molecular (etiological) profiles; secondly associate the ...

Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), a member of genus circovirus, is a small, non-enveloped, single stranded DNA virus. Although BFDVs are among the most well studied circoviruses, there is little to no information about BFDVs in Iran. The aim of the present study was to detect and identify BFDV molecules from the birds referred to the avian clinic of The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Tehr...

Background: Localized and extensive clinical subtypes of alopecia areata (AA) including alopecia totalis and alopecia universalis differ in genetic and immunologic aspects. Objective: Comparison of epidemiologic aspects of localized and extensive subtypes of AA. Patients and Methods: In a prospective descriptive study, 180 patients suffering from AA attending the skin clinics of Razi Hosp...
