The aim of our study is to test procalcitonin (PCT) as surrogate marker of identification of Candida spp. by blood culture (BC) and real-time-polymerase chain reaction (PCR), whether alone or in association with bacteria, in septic patients. Methods: We performed a single-centre retrospective study. We reviewed the clinical charts of patients with a diagnosis of severe sepsis or septic shock treated at our general intensive care unit from March 2009 to March 2013.

Small RNAs (sRNAs) are noncoding molecules that regulate different cellular activities in several bacteria. The role of sRNAs in gene expression regulation is poorly characterized in the etiological agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. We performed a global analysis of the sRNAs, sRNA target genes and regulatory elements previously identified in their genome and analyzed the expression of some sRNAs and their target genes by quantitative RT-PCR (qPCR) in three different culture conditions.

Blood stream infections are very common in paediatric age group and are one of the common causes of morbidity and mortality. Septicaemia gradually leads to serious consequences like shock, multi organ failure, DIC etc. Timely identification of causative pathogen by blood culture (gold standard) is important. Antibiogram also helps us to elevate consciousness on resistance problems and recognise prospect to decrease the use of inappropriate antibiotics. The study was undertaken to evaluate major bacterial isolates causing septicaemia and their antibiogram pattern.

Since the recent past, intensive shrimp culture has become widely spread and applied because of the diminishing farming land and to regulate proper discharge/processing of wastewater for monitoring environmental conditions. These systems tend to culture shrimps at high stocking density which is one of the most important factor in shrimp culture, and bear the potential to influence growth and survival of shrimp due to the stress response induced by crowding.

This study was performed to determine the cytogenetic effects of short-term thermal stress in human cultured lymphocytes. Experimental heat shock (39 °C) was performed alone or with the addition of mitomycin C (MMC) to determine the synergistic or antagonistic effects of heat shock on genotoxicity induced by MMC.

The objective of this study was to investigate whether or not AaGroEL communicates with T cells directly. To do this, sorted cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated with AaGroEL for 48 h. Flow cytometry was used to measure soluble and intracellular cytokine expression in the cell cultures and detect TLR2 expression on the surface of T cells.

 I would like today to make a few remarks about culture shock, a malady which I am sure has afflicted most of us here in varying degree. We might almost call culture shock an occupational disease of people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad. Like most ailments it has its own etiology, symptoms, and cure.

 Culture shock isn't a clinical term or medical condition. It's simply a common way to describe the confusing and nervous feelings a person may have after leaving a familiar culture to live in a new and different culture. When you move to a new place, you're bound to face a lot of changes. That can be exciting and stimulating, but it can also be overwhelming. You may feel sad, anxious, frustrated, and want to go home.

The results illustrate the mismatch between student and instructor perceptions of the problems associated with students' written work. Whereas students selected vocabulary as offering the greatest challenge (62%), instructors clearly indicated style as being of greatest concern (92%). Students generally underestimated their problems, with large discrepancies for style and grammar when compared with the instructors’ perceptions.

In a culture like ours, long accustomed to splitting and dividing all things as a means of control, it is sometimes a bit of a shock to be reminded that, in operational and practical fact, the medium is the message. This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium-- that is, of any extension of ourselves -- result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves, or by any new technology. Thus, with automation, for example, the new patterns of human association tend to eliminate jobs, it...

In 1963, Bob Dylan wrote and released his song “The Times They Are a-Changin’” which heralded the great social and cultural changes that were coming down the pike during the decade known as “the Sixties.” I very much doubt that he was thinking about professional women’s basketball when he wrote that tune. Heck, the Women’s National Basketball Association would not even exist until three decades later. Nevertheless, that song was among the first things to come to the mind of this fan of both Dylan’s music and of women’s sports as the story of the 2003 Detroit Shock unfolded.

Traditionally, emigration was a lifelong commitment to settle in a land far away for a chance of – or at least hope for – a better life. These days, there are as many reasons as there are individuals. Sometimes it is love, sometimes money that feeds the drive. Or adventure. Escape. For some, a few years spent abroad improves the chances of advancing their professional growth. It may even be a prerequisite for their later career. Others follow a dream, grab an opportunity, or just “give it a shot”. Whatever your motive may be, the actual step of packing up...

Người ta vẫn thường định nghĩa diễn giải (paraphrasing) là những cách không viết y nguyên như bản gốc. Diễn giải đòi hỏi bạn phải diễn đạt ý bằng lời lẽ của riêng mình. Tất nhiên thuật ngữ thì bạn vẫn phải giữ nguyên như trong bản gốc. Ví dụ, nếu bạn đang viết về “culture shock” (cú sốc văn hoá), thì bạn không thể né tránh từ đó. Tuy nhiên, nếu bạn chỉ đơn giản nhắc lại như con vẹt cấu trúc câu, văn phong và cách chọn từ như nguyên bản thì đó không phải là diễn giải....

Other Causes of Vaginal Discharge or Vaginitis In the ulcerative vaginitis associated with staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome, Staphylococcus aureus should be promptly identified in vaginal fluid by Gram's stain and by culture. In desquamative inflammatory vaginitis, smears of vaginal fluid reveal neutrophils, massive vaginal epithelial-cell exfoliation with increased numbers of parabasal cells, and gram-positive cocci; this syndrome may respond to treatment with 2% clindamycin cream.
