This article describes the management of acute asthma exacerbation in the Emergency Department (ED). An asthma exacerbation can be defined as clinical worsening of disease or an asymptomatic decrease in peak flows. Acute exacerbations of asthma may represent reactions to airway irritants or failures of chronic treatment. Hospitalizations and ED visits account for a large proportion of the healt...

Abstract The ordinary city of Bir al-Saba’, situated within an urban world stretched across southern Palestine, has a story to tell, dramatic spatiotemporal transformations, presence and absence, capture resilience. Such connected history is profoundly shaped through the world-making relations those who lived dwelt always-becoming material ideational spatial geography Naqab. Research gathered f...

the features of helicobacter pylori adhesins, their interactions with their host counterparts, regulated and selective gene expressions are amongst the many clever strategies this microorganism undertakes to survive the otherwise sterile gastric milieu. the ingenious crafting of these interactions and the respective host reactions govern, in part, an array of consequences ranging from asymptoma...

Asthma and rhinitis are common comorbidities that amplify the burden of each disease. They both characterized by poor symptom control, low adherence to clinical management guidelines, high levels patient self-management. Therefore, this study aims investigate prevalence self-reported symptoms in people with asthma purchasing Short-Acting Beta Agonist (SABA) reliever medication from a community ...

Our study aims to reconstruct the palaeogeography of northern part Lesser Antilles in order analyse whether emerged areas might have existed during Cenozoic, favouring terrestrial faunal dispersals between South America and Greater along present-day arc. The stratigraphy depositional environments islands Anguilla, St Martin, Tintamarre, Barthélemy, Barbuda Antigua are reviewed association with ...

A hitherto largely unresolved problem in behavioral biology is how workers are prevented from reproducing in large insect societies with high relatedness. Signals of the queen are assumed to inform the nestmates about her presence in the colony, which leads to indirect fitness benefits for workers. In the ant Camponotus floridanus, we found such a signal located on queen-laid eggs. In groups of...

The effect of different statuses of honeybee queens, Apis mellifera (one-year-old mated queen; supersedure queen; three-day old virgin queen; queen cell; without queen; and without queen/without bee bread) on many aspects of 3day old workers were studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This study was carried out to describe the (types, distribution, numbers and measurements) of the dif...
