Six quinolones were tested on 817 consecutive pneumococcal isolates for which ciprofloxacin MICs were high (> or =2 microg/ml); the isolates had been collected during two recent Spanish surveillance studies. For strains for which the ciprofloxacin MIC was >or =4 microg/ml, the MICs at which 90% of the isolates tested against gemifloxacin, moxifloxacin, gatifloxacin, sparfloxacin, levofloxacin, ...

We investigated how group distinctiveness threats affect essentialist beliefs about group membership in a stigmatized fan community. An experiment conducted on 817 members of the fan community revealed that highly identified fans who perceived significant stigmatization were the most likely to endorse essentialist beliefs about group membership when exposed to a distinctiveness threat via compa...

Kochenberger and Woolsley have introduced slack variables into the constraints of a geometric program and have added their reciprocals to the objective function. They find this augmented program advantageous for numerical minimization^ In this paper the augmented program is used to give a relatively simple proof of the "refined duality theory of geometric programming. This proof also shows that...

FlyTED, the Drosophila Testis Gene Expression Database, is a biological research database for gene expression images from the testis of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. It currently contains 2762 mRNA in situ hybridization images and ancillary metadata revealing the patterns of gene expression of 817 Drosophila genes in testes of wild type flies and of seven meiotic arrest mutant strains ...
