Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a disabling condition that commonly affects otherwise normal young females. Because these patients can present with a flushing disorder, we hypothesized that mast cell activation (MCA) can contribute to its pathogenesis. Here we describe POTS patients with MCA (MCA+POTS), diagnosed by episodes of flushing and abnormal increases in urine methylhistamine, a...

The main purpose of this study was to examine the impact different phosphorus (P) fertilizers and organic manures alone in combination with Bacillus sp. MN-54 on growth, yield, nutrient uptake, chlorophyll (SPAD value) crude proteins content chickpea. simple manure (SM), processed (PM), single super phosphate (SSP), rock (RP) were applied individually combinations soil pots, chickpea seeds trea...

Abstract Salinity stress has become the major devastating constraint for rice growth. Halotolerant rhizobacterial nitrogen fixer (HRNF) was investigated increasing nitrogenase activity (NA), organic acid (OA), gibberellic (GA), and indole 3-acetic (IAA) productions, seedling growth, yield. Six N fixers were isolated using Ashby’s (Ab 1 , Ab 2 3 ) Okon’s media (Az Az ). Furthermore, bioassay car...

The present study was designed to examine the effects of Lactobacillus plantaraum and L. paracasei on the growth and aflatoxin-producing ability of Aspergillus parasiticus. In these experiments, direct and indirect interactions of two different probiotic lactobacilli with A. parasiticus was examined.A co-culture system which supported both fungal growth and probiotic bacteria showed the inhibit...

members of the genus bacillus are among the most promising candidates for biological control of plant pathogenic bacteria. in this study, cell free supernatants of three strains b. subtilis utb96, b. subtilis utb1 and b. subtilis utb70 against aspergillus flavus r5 were investigated using dual culture assay. strain b. subtilis utb96 showed the highest inhibition effect. thin lyer chromatography...

an ability of the fluorescent pseudomonad bacteria is to secrete such secondary metabolites as hydrogen cyanide, protease, salicylic acid as well as siderophore which prevent the growth of soil-habitant pathogens. tests were done for evaluating the materials produced by the said bacteria. in the tests' cultures, p. aeruginosa strains 7nsk2, utpf92, and utpf86 produced the most hydrogen cya...

BACKGROUND Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is an autonomic disorder characterized by an exaggerated increase in heart rate that occurs during standing, without orthostatic hypotension. Women are most frequently affected, and may present with palpitations, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, weakness, exercise intolerance, lightheadedness, presyncope, and syncope. METHODS W...

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is characterized by inappropriate increase in heart rate on assuming upright position from a supine position without a necessary drop in blood pressure. Etiology of this condition is complex and multifactorial. Autonomic dysfunction,[1] hypovolemia,[2] hyper responsiveness of beta adrenergic receptors[3] with associated elevations of plasma norep...
