Adding thymoglobuline to the conventional immunosuppressant regimen in kidney transplantation: A cost-benefit analysis
Background: Thymoglobuline (TG), is used for both induction and rejection therapy in kidney transplantation (TX). This study was conducted to compare between adding TG or not to the conventional drugs to evaluate the rate of rejections, infections and costs. Methods: In two groups of patients, each of 45 cases group A received conventional drugs (cyclosporine, mycophenolate and prednisolone) a...

متن کاملMobile P2P: Turning Heterogeneity to an Advantage
Peer-to-peer content-distribution networks have a large user community in the fixed Internet today and cause a noticeable part of Internet traffic. Enabling popular peer-to-peer applications on mobile devices in cellular networks is an interesting opportunity for both, customers and operators. However, when mobile devices join peer-to-peer networks, the networks become heterogeneous (e.g. diffe...
متن کاملRapid Molecular Testing for TB to Guide Respiratory Isolation in the U.S.: A Cost-Benefit Analysis
BACKGROUND Respiratory isolation of inpatients during evaluation for TB is a slow and costly process in low-burden settings. Xpert MTB/RIF (Xpert) is a novel molecular test for tuberculosis (TB) that is faster and more sensitive but substantially more expensive than smear microscopy. No previous studies have examined the costs of molecular testing as a replacement for smear microscopy in this s...
