Is intra-abdominal hypertension a missing factor that drives multiple organ dysfunction syndrome? [PDF]

, 2014
In a recent issue of Critical Care, Cheng and colleagues conducted a rabbit model study that demonstrated that intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) may damage both gut anatomy and function. With only 6 hours of IAH at 25 mmHg, these authors observed an 80%

Microbial Ecology of Decontaminated and Not Decontaminated Beef Carcasses

Journal of Food Research, 2017
The objective of this study was to investigate spoilage microflora of decontaminated and not decontaminated beef carcasses. Carcasses after skinning and after chilling at two beef plants (A, a small plant where no interventions but dry chilling are used; B, a large plant where multiple antimicrobial interventions and spray chilling are used) were swab ...
