Results: A total of 5321 laboratory requests comprising 4506 malaria parasites (MP), 414 urine microscopy, culture and sensitivity (urine m/c/s), and 410 blood culture were made, processed and reports generated. Of these, 1040 (19.6%) were not collected or delivered to the requesting physician. Urine m/c/s with 37.9% (157/414) accounted for the highest test-specific non-collected reports, close...

By enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with group A-, subgroup-, and serotype-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), we tested 414 stool specimens collected from pediatric and adult patients hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis between January and June 1988. Of 414 specimens tested, 124 (30%) were positive for group A rotavirus. The subgroup was determined in 110 specimens (88.7%); 16.1% were ...

Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta1) inhibits the proliferation of tumors in early stages of cancers, whereas it promotes tumor growth and metastasis in later stages of cancers. To examine the effect of the TGF-beta1 polymorphisms on gastric cancer risk, we studied the association between C-509T and T+29C (Leu10Pro) polymorphisms in TGF-beta1 and gastric cancer risk in 414 cases and 41...

In the present investigation, orthogonal metal cutting simulations were performed using an explicit finite-element code, LS-DYNA. In the simulations, a rigid stee...
