Leukocyte Activity in Patients with the Adult patients with ARDS was 172±22 compared to a mean CI of 79±8 of PMNs from normal subjects (p=O.0001), a 227 ± 24% increase over control (Fig 1). PMN respiratory burst activity, as assessed by the generation of chemRespiratory Distress Syndrome* Implications for Pulmonary iluminescence (CL), was 151±12% of control (p=0.04), indicating that PMNs from A...

This paper is focused on the effect of a health information system adoption on relieving dysmenorrhea in women. Data were collected from 130 women who took health examination in K health promotion center from May 13 to June 14, 2013. The results of this study are as follows.

We have identified the ROSAT source RX J0039.2-5117 with the previously almost unknown 'narrow line' Seyfert 1 galaxy WPVS007 (z = 0:028). The X-ray source displays quite unusual properties for an AGN. It was bright and ultrasoft in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) and found at a level lower by a factor of 400 in PSPC count rate in 1993. The implied 0:1 2:4 keV luminosity during the RASS was 10 ...

The present study observes a military sample across race to better understand suicide risk among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) individuals utilizing the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide. In a sample of 3,387 Army recruiters, multivariate analysis of variance was used to compare the means across race on acquired capability and pain tolerance. AI/AN individuals demonstrated higher levels o...

ChloraPrep (2% chlorhexidine gluconate + 70% isopropyl alcohol [CHG + IPA] in a 3.0-mL applicator) is a recently approved antiseptic for preoperative skin preparation. This controlled open-label trial assessed the immediate and persistent antimicrobial efficacy and safety of CHG + IPA compared with 70% IPA or a 2% CHG aqueous solution alone. Each antiseptic significantly reduced abdominal and i...

RESULTS. Almost 600 patients were randomized to each treatment arm. Almost 75% of patients had a least 1 episode of asthma, with almost half of patients culminating in an exacerbation. No significant difference was seen between groups in the number of episodes leading to asthma exacerbations. Daily montelukast reduced symptoms over the 12-day treatment period of asthma episodes compared with pl...
