was performed. Methods and Resuls. The study included 930 patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted to primary referral hospitals. Administration of magnesium in acute myocardial infarction was associated with a 49%o reduction in ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. The incidence of cardiac arrest was reduced by 58%. The frequency of supraventricular tachycardias was also lower. O...

The SARS epidemic was the first communicable disease epidemic of the 21st century, with 29 countries affected. The first human case was identified in Guangdong, China on 16 November 2002 and the last known case had a symptom onset date of 5 July 2003 in Taiwan. The disease infected 8098 individuals of whom 774 died.1,2 Hong Kong bore a large proportion of this morbidity and mortality burden, an...

The gene most commonly altered in human glioblastomas is the epidermalgrowth factor receptor (EGFR). We profiled transcripts induced by mutantEGFR to better understand its role in tumor progression. The pattern found suggested enhanced tumor invasion. The highly induced genes included extracellular matrix components, metalloproteases, and a serine protease. We confirmed that mutant EGFR did mak...

Underwater ultrasonic sound of finless porpoises Neophocaena phocaenoides were monitored concurrent with visual observations in the Yangtze River, China. In a total of a 774 km cruise, 588 finless porpoises were sighted by visual observation and 44,864 ultrasonic pulses were recorded. The acoustic monitoring system could detect presence of the finless porpoises 82% of the time. False alarms in ...
