High-throughput genomic technology has enabled us to screen the entire genome and generate hypotheses at relatively low costs. One of the driving forces in highthroughput genomic technology is high-throughput sequencing (HTS).With its rapid development and affordability, HTS has quickly become the go-to choice for interrogating the entire genome. The analysis methodology development for HTS has...

We studied two neonates fed diluted formula and excessive water who developed hyponatraemic convulsions; treatment included intravenous hypertonic saline and water restriction. Educating mothers is important to stop recurrences.

In the l i tera ture on tissue cul ture are repor ted , more or less completely, experiments test ing the effect of hypoton ic and hyper ton ic solutions upon growth of cells and upon individual cell s tructures. I t was wi th a view, therefore, of s tudying more fully the effect of solutions of different concentrat ions tha t the present work was undertaken. T h e experiments were performed in...

1. Jejunostomy does not prevent the development of the chemical changes of the blood characteristic of obstruction of the jejunum in the dog. 2. Jejunostomy following experimental obstruction of the jejunum has no beneficial effect upon the duration of life. There is some evidence that life may be shortened by early jejunostomy. 3. Treatment of jejunal obstruction with sodium chloride solution ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare functional data of different nerve-gap bridging materials evaluated in rat experiments by means of a systematic review. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review was conducted, searching MEDLINE, HTS and CENTRAL to identify all trials evaluating functional recovery of artificial nerve conduits in the rat model. RESULTS There was a trend towards a...

Bactericidal activity of ceftazidime is determined by the time that concentrations in tissue and serum are above the MIC for the pathogens during the dosing interval. Thus, the most effective mode of administration of ceftazidime is continuous infusion. However, this agent is light sensitive which may result in instability when administered by this method without protection from light. Until no...

Acousto-electric interaction signal (AEI signal) resulting from interaction of acoustic pressure wave and electrical current field has received recent attention in biomedical field for detection and registration of bioelectrical current. The signal is very of small value and brings about several challenges when detecting it. Several observations has been done in saline solution and on nerves an...

Northern bobwhite ( Colinus virginianus ) have experienced a dramatic decline in West Texas over the last 3 yr, and investigations are underway to evaluate the role of parasites in this decline. One of the key parasites being investigated is the eyeworm (Oxyspirura petrowi). Live eyeworms were extracted from both live and dead northern bobwhites, and in vitro survival was tested using 10 liquid...

METHOD Neuropathic pain was induced by surgical constriction of the infraorbital nerve in rats. A control group underwent a sham procedure consisting of surgical exposure of the nerve. Subgroups of each group received either BoNT/A or isotonic saline solution. The clinical response was assessed with the -20°C test. Animals that underwent nerve constriction developed sensitization; the sham grou...
