BACKGROUND The objective of this report is to combine the data from an earlier adult study with the data from a paediatric study in order to determine the overall accuracy of the BpTRU (BPM-100 model) as compared to the recognized standard, auscultatory mercury sphygmomanometer. DESIGN The individual blood pressure points recorded for both adult and paediatric studies were compared directly t...

including prick (epicutaneous) with a mix of Aspergillus species and if negative, intradermal at 1000 PNU/mL, Aspergillus fumigatus (Af). Sera were analyzed for total IgE (elevated is $417 kU/L) by Phadia ImmunoCap, anti-Af IgE and anti-Af IgG (ABPA range $ 2.0) ELISA, and precipitating antibodies. HRCT of the lungs was ordered next if serology was positive (diagnostic criteria for ABPA require...

We report genome sequences of two NDM-1 metallo-β-lactamase-producing multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates of sequence type 147 (ST147) from one hospital. The genomes are highly similar and differ in prophage located in the chromosome of K. pneumoniae KPB-1470/16 and in the additional plasmid-carrying blaOXA-48 gene in K. pneumoniae KPB-417/16.

The nested polymerase chain reaction technique was compared with the conventional smear and culture methods for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The nested polymerase chain reaction used in this study showed excellent specificity, sensitivity, and agreement with the conventional methods for 417 clinical samples, indicating a contribution to the rapid diagnosis of mycobacterial infectiou...

Secondary household transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) was studied in 114 households involving 417 contacts. The attack rate was low (6.2%). Occupation of the index case was the factor that most influenced household transmission (adjusted hazard ratio for healthcare workers 0.157; 95% confidence interval 0.042 to 0.588).

Abstract Study question Is the morphology of ovarian tissue from paediatric and adolescent girls similar to that adults? Summary answer The presence biovular follicles was more frequently observed in ovary than adult ovary. What is known already At birth there are approximately 1 million reduce around 380,000 by puberty. Limited information available on but it thought that, before age 6 years, ...
