We compared oxygenation and derivatization of hemoglobin for the hematofluorometric determination of erythrocyte zinc protoporphyrin (ZPP). No statistically significant differences were found when the volume ratio of sample to ProtoFluor reagent (which converts hemoglobin to cyanohemoglobin) was changed from 1:1 to 1:4. With the derivatizing reagent, results were significantly higher than those...

The gamma chain of human plasma fibrinogen is heterogeneous with three forms differing in length at the C-terminus. Alternative RNA splicing produces two gamma chain mRNAs encoding gamma 50 and gamma 57.5 polypeptides, while fibrinogen gamma 55 is produced by post-translational modification of the gamma 57.5 chain. The composition of purified variant gamma chain fibrinogens, which comprise 10% ...

BACKGROUND Because pneumococcal serotype 6C was previously not distinguished from serotype 6A, the impact of the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) on the carriage of serotype 6C is unknown. METHODS The nasopharyngeal (NP) prevalence of the 6C serotype was determined using 1326 pneumococcal isolates collected from 7 cohorts of Massachusetts children between 1994 and 2007. Initiall...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence and subtypes of hypertension among semi-urban residents in south-western Nigeria. METHODS All adults aged 18 years or older in 10 semi-urban communities were recruited for the study. The blood pressure (BP) reading taken with a validated electronic BP monitor after at least 10 minutes of rest was used in the analysis. Hypertension was defined as BP ≥ 140/...

SETTING Ten primary health clinics in rural Thyolo District, Malawi. OBJECTIVE Tuberculosis (TB) is a common initial presentation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. We investigated the time from TB symptom onset to HIV diagnosis to describe TB health-seeking behaviour in adults newly diagnosed with HIV. DESIGN We asked adults (18 years) about the presence and duration of TB s...
