BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Neonates with severe CHD require CPB within the first days of life. White matter injury can occur before surgery, and this may impair the long-term neurodevelopmental and psychosocial outcome. The purpose of this study was to assess the microstructural development of the CC in infants with CHD before and after CPB for transposition of the great arteries. MATERIALS AND M...

PCR-ribotyping is a broadly used method for the classification of isolates of Clostridium difficile, an emerging intestinal pathogen, causing infections with increased disease severity and incidence in several European and North American countries. We have now carried out clustering analysis with selected genes of numerous C. difficile strains as well as gene content comparisons of their genome...

in order to investigate effect of deficit irrigation on phenological stages and yield of soybean cultivars, an experiment was conducted as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research farm, university of guilan in 2009. main factor was included four irrigation levels based on potential moisture 30-35 (i1), 50-55 (i2), 70-75 (i3) centibar...

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) has been associated with an increase in venous thromboembolism due to impaired fibrinolysis. As plasma levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are elevated BP patients, this represents one possible mechanism. We sought better understand the role autoantibodies inducing a prothrombotic state. first reviewed our previous RNA-seq database BP-IgG treated ker...

abstract limited number of herbicides are used to control weeds in soybean, which has herbicides resistance in consequence, so cultural weed management can be used in order to evaluate the effect of planting dates of soybean cultivars on weed management an experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications and with strip plot arrangement in sari. two plan...

A laboratory diagnosis survey of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) was performed in Italy in 2012-2013. Questionnaires from 278 healthcare settings from 15 regions of Italy were collected and analysed. Eighty seven percent of the laboratories declared to routinely perform CDI diagnosis, 99% of them only after the clinician's request. Among the 216 laboratories providing information on the s...

According the Regulation of Minister Health Republic Indonesia No. 033 2012 [1], Regarding food additives, boric acid borax prohibited from used in products. However, many people still use as producing food. This study aimed identify determine levels samples. The research method was...

OBJECTIVE Ferritin concentrations are often increased in patients with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus, but few reports have examined the associations between ferritin and atherosclerosis. We investigated whether any relationship between ferritin and coronary artery calcium score (CACS) >0 (as a marker of atherosclerosis) was independent of potential confounders, such as iron-bi...
