Biomphalaria alexandrina snails as immunogens against Schistosoma mansoni infection in mice
Despite effective chemotherapy, schistosomiasis remains the second largest public health problem in the developing world. Currently, vaccination is the new strategy for schistosomiasis control.

Acute hypotension is a common complication of haemodialysis, occurring in 20-33% of patients in different series. Although the immediate cause is increasing intravascular hypovolaemia related to the dialysis procedure, no constant relationship exists between volume status or degree of volume loss and development of hypotension, emphasizing the ...

Systematic Approximations to Susceptible-Infectious-Susceptible Dynamics on Networks [PDF]
Network-based infectious disease models have been highly effective in elucidating the role of contact structure in the spread of infection. As such, pair- and neighbourhood-based approximation models have played a key role in linking findings from network simulations to standard (random-mixing) results.

Why only 20% of smokers develop clinically relevant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was a puzzle for many years. Now, epidemiologic studies point clearly toward a large heritable component. The combination of genome-wide association studies and candidate gene analysis is helping to identify those genetic variants responsible for an ...

Introduction to Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping and Susceptibility Weighted Imaging [PDF]
Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) and Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) are MRI techniques that measure and display differences in the magnetization that is induced in tissues, i.e. their magnetic susceptibility, when placed in the strong external magnetic field of an MRI system. SWI produces images in which the contrast is heavily weighted

Malus Hosts–Erwinia amylovora Interactions: Strain Pathogenicity and Resistance Mechanisms
The bacterium, Erwinia amylovora, deposits effector proteins such as AvrRpt2EA into hosts through the type III secretion pathogenicity island to cause fire blight in susceptible Malus genotypes.

Susceptibility-weighted imaging and quantitative susceptibility mapping in the brain [PDF]
Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that enhances image contrast by using the susceptibility differences between tissues. It is created by combining both magnitude and phase in the gradient echo data. SWI is sensitive to both paramagnetic and diamagnetic substances which generate different phase shift ...

Resistance of Citrus species (Citrus spp.) to the root lesion nematode Pratylenchus sp.
The study was carried out to evaluate the resistance of various domestic citrus species to the root lesion nematode Pratylenchus sp. for further research in rootstock selection as well as nematode management.
