Cryptosporidium spp. are important emerging pathogens that can cause infections in humans, especially in immunosuppressed patients. Treatment of diseased calves that shed the infectious stage of the protozoon is critically important to prevent contamination by Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts. The objective of this study was to determine if a combination of azithromycin and toltrazuril provides a b...

5 [1] Using the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Spinning 6 Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI), Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy 7 System (CERES) instrument, and BaE146 aircraft data sets, we provide an overview of 8 volcanic ash spatial distribution for six days (4–18 May 2010) and assess their properties 9 and radiative impacts for 17 May primarily over t...

A terminally ill patient with metastatic thyroid cancer and severe renal insufficiency was treated as an inpatient with 10,545 MBq (285 mCi) Na131I. The patient died six days after radiopharrnaceutical administration while still in the hospital. A close relative of the patient disregarded the instructions of the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) and insisted upon staying close to the patient for l...

Twenty-one healthy local goats of about eight months old were divided into four groups consisting of six animals in groups 1, 2 and 3 and three animals in group 4. Goats in groups 1 and 2 were inoculated intratracheally with Mycoplasma arginini. Goats in group 2 were inoculated again with Pasteurella haemolytica A2 six days later. Goats in group 3 were inoculated intratracheally with P. haemoly...

Background and aim: Several cases of acute colitis induced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been reported but the general role of recent NSAID intake as a risk factor for acute diarrhoea has not been studied to date. The aim of our study was to determine whether the risk of acute diarrhoea is increased by NSAIDs in a prospective series of acute diarrhoea cases which were s...

This study investigated incidental learning of word meanings from context during normal reading. A total of 352 students in third, fifth, and seventh grades read either expository or narrative passages selected from grade-level textbooks, and after six days were tested on their knowledge of difficult words from the passages. Small but reliable gains in knowledge of words from the passages read ...

We used the Aladin Virtual Obsrvatory tool and High Resolution Imager ROSAT archival data to search for X-ray variability in scale of days in 23 young stars in the σ Orionis cluster and a background galaxy. Five stars displayed unambiguous flares and had probabilities pvar ≫ 99% of being actual variables. Two of the detected flares were violent and long-lasting, with maximum duration of six day...

This is the first study analysing individual differences in shyness–boldness and behavioural asymmetries in young zebrafish larvae (fry, 7 days post-fertilisation). Individual differences were more stable in tests with predator model (crude image of a fish face) than with an arbitrary novel stimulus (vertical black stripe). Principal component analysis revealed a dimension of ‘shyness’ that inv...

We are reporting two different cases of two new Proteus speciesProteus hauseri and Proteus penneri isolated from two different patients. One case reports a one month old male child with history of diarrhoea since six days. His stool sample was sent for microbiological examination and the second case is of Ante natal care patient with urinary tract infection whose urine was send for microbiologi...
