The aim of the study was to assess differences in cerebrovascular reactivity in healthy subjects during orthostasis. Twenty healthy volunteers (11 men and 9 women) with no atherosclerotic risk factors were evaluated by use of transcranial Doppler. The breath holding index (BHI) was obtained in supine and upright posture using standardized procedure. Student's t-test was used on comparison of th...

  Salmonella     species show different disease syndromes and host specificity, according to their antigenic profile. Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium is one of the most frequently isolated serovar from foodborne outbreaks. Poultry meat has been identified as one of the principal foodborne sources of Salmonella. In this study, the effect of microwave treatment of chicken meat samples...

Wound infections and septicemia with drug-resistant bacteria lead to higher mortality morbidity increased healthcare costs. We aimed evaluate the prevalence rate of nosocomial bacterial agents antimicrobial susceptibility patterns in hospitalized non-hospitalized patients. Samples are collected from wound pus, burn; medical device tip blood male female patients sent for culture sensitivity Micr...

ABSTRACT- Lactic acid bacteria are commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract of various endothermic animals and humans, in milk, dairy and seafood products and on some plant surfaces. The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of isolated lactic acid bacteria from intestines of narrow-barred Spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus commerson) on Listeria innocua growth. Five strai...

We read with great interest the recent original article by Camargo et al. [1] titled “Abnormal Cerebrovascular Reactivity in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease.” Authors observed that patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have impaired cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) as compared to those without orthostatic hypotension (OH) and to the control subjects. Also, authors have reported that there wa...

The choice of EEG reference has been widely studied. However, the most appropriate re-referencing for data is still debated. Moreover, role in estimation functional Brain-Heart Interplay (BHI), together with different multivariate modelling strategies, not investigated yet. This study identifies best methodology combining a proper electrical and signal processing methods an effective BHI assess...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Perfusion imaging with dynamic susceptibility contrast MR imaging (DSC-MRI) has been used to evaluate hemodynamic status in patients with symptomatic occlusive cerebrovascular disease. The aim of the present study was to determine the hemodynamic changes occurring in asymptomatic patients with unilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion by use of DSC-MRI with trans...
