Transmission of pre-XDR and XDR-TB in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, India [PDF]
AbstractMultidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug resistant (XDR)Mycobacterium tuberculosiscomplex (MTBC) strains are a great challenge for tuberculosis (TB) control in India. Still, factors driving the MDR/XDR epidemic in India are not well defined.To address this, whole genome sequencing (WGS) data from 1 852 MTBC strains obtained from patients ...

AbstractAn overview of the important thermal and chemical processes in “photon-dominated regions” or “photo-dissociation regions” (PDRs) and “X-ray dominated regions” (XDRs) is presented. Applications of the models are shown to observations of the ultra-luminous infrared galaxy Mrk 231, and the starburst galaxy M 82.
