Neural networks capable of generating coordinated rhythmic activity form at early stages of development in the spinal cord. In this study, voltage-imaging techniques were used to examine the spatiotemporal pattern of rhythmic activity in transverse slices of lumbar spinal cord from embryonic and neonatal rats. Real-time images were recorded in slices stained with the voltage-sensitive fluoresce...

Group A rotaviruses, human caliciviruses, astroviruses, and adenovirus types 40 and 41 were detected by enzyme immunoassay or reverse transcription-PCR in 61, 14, 6, and 3% of stool specimens from 414 children consulting for gastroenteritis between 1995 and 1998. These data highlight the importance of caliciviruses in infantile gastroenteritis. Among these, Norwalk-like viruses belonging to gen...

414 Nefrologia 2012;32(3):396-418 possible “cross-talk” between dendritic cells and Th lymphocytes with a consequent intrarenal cytokine production. In addition, both the modulation of the actin cytoskeleton at the glomerular diaphragm filtration level that induce by B7-1 expression, and the destabilization of the synaptopodin protein would be others probable causes of visceral epithelial injury.

Das Projekt Q3 des SFB 414 befasst sich mit Methoden zur interaktiven Volumenvisualisierung und der Integration von Softwaremodulen. Zur Erhöhung der klinischen Akzeptanz wurden vorhande Visualisierungsverfahren optimiert, neuartige haptische Eingabegeräte integriert sowie ein CORBA-basierter Bildverarbeitungsserver entworfen. Eine Visualisierungs-Umgebung stellt die Verfahren für die klinische...

From July 2015 to December 2016, the presence of rickettsial pathogens was investigated for 414 patients with unknown fever in eight places in all the divisions of Bangladesh. Rickettsia felis was identified in blood samples from all the regions (overall detection rate, 19.6%), suggesting nationwide prevalence of R. felis infections.

A low rate of resistance (0.24%) to rifabutin was noted in Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from 414 Japanese patients. The only rifabutin-resistant strain detected showed a point mutation in the rpoB gene and was isolated from a patient with a history of rifampin treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis.
