Efficacy of Ciprofloxacin for Treatment of Cholera Associated with Diminished Susceptibility to Ciprofloxacin to Vibrio cholerae O1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
We identified a poor clinical response to treatment of cholera with a single 1 g dose of ciprofloxacin, a standard treatment for cholera.To determine reasons for the poor response and better therapeutic approaches we examined the minimal inhibitor ...

Quality assurance of antimicrobial susceptibility testing by disc diffusion [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2001
Abstract Quality assurance is essential to ensure the quality of antimicrobial susceptibility tests by diffusion methods. Routine internal quality control testing with a range of control strains is a major part of the quality assurance process, as it facilitates monitoring of the performance of the test. Most standardized methods include

Comparison of susceptibility of Enterobacteriaceae causing community-onset urinary tract infection to isepamicin and amikacin by the disc diffusion method

Journal of Medical Sciences, 2014
Background: Enterobacteriaceae, common pathogens responsible for urinary tract infections are known to be susceptible to aminoglycosides. The emergence of resistant pathogens complicates antimicrobial regimen and becomes a challenge for clinicians.

Investigating effects from restricted diffusion in multi-component diffusion data [PDF]

, 2014
We have investigated model systems in which effects from non-Gaussian restricted diffusion could be separated from effects caused by multiple diffusion coefficients. We applied various models to analyze the experimental data.

Reproducibility and dependence on diffusion weighting of line scan diffusion in the lumbar intervertebral discs [PDF]

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2005
AbstractPurposeTo investigate the dependence of line scan diffusion imaging (LSDI) in the lumbar vertebral discs on diffusion weighting, fat suppression (FS), and postprocessing noise correction.Materials and MethodsEleven normal volunteers were scanned using 4 b‐value and 12 b‐value LSDI protocols, with and without FS.

Using Diffusion-Diffusion Exchange Spectroscopy to observe diffusion exchange in yeast [PDF]

, 2019
The permeability of cell membranes varies significantly across both healthy and diseased tissue, and changes in cell membrane permeability can occur during treatment response in tumours.

Intervertebral disc degeneration instigates vertebral endplate remodeling and facet joint pathology in a large animal model

European Cells & Materials
Although the intervertebral discs are the most studied region of the spinal motion segment with respect to their degeneration and contributions to back pain, it is becoming increasingly evident that degeneration of adjacent structures including the facet

Social Functioning Within the First Years After Pediatric Brain Tumor Diagnosis and the Relationship With Family Psychosocial Risk

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

Hall diffusion and the magnetorotational instability in protoplanetary discs [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012
The destabilising effect of Hall diffusion in a Keplerian disc allows the MRI to occur for much lower ionisation levels than would otherwise be possible. However, simulations suggest that the consequences for the saturated state are not as significant as suggested by the linear instability.
