Cost-effectiveness of Quantiferon®-TB Gold-in-Tube versus tuberculin skin testing for contact screening and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection in Brazil. [PDF]
Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is a reservoir for new TB cases. Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) reduces the risk of active TB by as much as 90%, but LTBI screening has limitations.

Green-Schwarz Strings in TsT-transformed backgrounds [PDF]
We consider classical strings propagating in a background generated by a sequence of TsT transformations. We describe a general procedure to derive the Green-Schwarz action for strings. We show that the U(1) isometry variables of the TsT-transformed background are related to the isometry variables of the initial background in a universal way ...

Energy Landscapes in Chemical Reactions and Transport
Kinetics/dynamics of chemical reactivity and transport of chemical species in a solid are both determined by the energy landscape in which they take place. Discussing common grounds but also distinct differences may help in advancing the understanding in both fields.

Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to study the association between vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) parameters and the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) measured by polysomnography in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Methods Patients with epilepsy who underwent polysomnography with an active VNS device between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively ...

The aim of this study was to obtain epidemiological estimates of bovine tuberculosis (TB) prevalence in cattle in the highlands of Cameroon using two population-based tuberculin skin test (TST) surveys in the years 2009 and 2010.

Pure spinor strings in TsT deformed background [PDF]
We consider pure spinor strings that propagate in the background generated by a sequence of TsT transformations. We use the fact that U(1) isometry variables of TsT-transformed background are related to the isometry variables of the initial background in the universal way that is independent of the details of the background.

Muonium addition reactions in the gas phase: Quantum tunneling in Mu + C2H4 and Mu + C2D4 [PDF]
Copyright © 1990 American Institute of Physics.The reaction kinetics for the addition of the muonium (Mu=μ+e−) atom to C2H4 and C2D4 have been measured over the temperature range 150–500 K at (N2) moderator pressures near 1 atm.

After collecting Musa paradisiaca leaves, some were dried and others were used to produce aqueous extracts. The extracts and powders were characterized and then administered to rats made anaemic by PHZ. After 14 days of administration of the two samples, the rats were euthanized and it was observed that after 9 days of treatment, the aqueous extract ...
