Staphylococcus aureus is a drug resistant pathogen with zoonotic potential commonly isolated from humans and animals. The aim of this study was to compare the occurrence resistance, resistance genes, sequence types (STs), genotypes S. humans, livestock, wildlife in eastern Poland. A high percentage isolates penicillin (63%), erythromycin (39%), clindamycin (37%), tetracycline (31%), methicillin...

A 12-lead ECG was obtained from a 59-year-old man experiencing chest pain on his first postoperative day following a triple-vessel coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). Is this a single-lead ischaemia? (Fig. 1). The ST-segment elevation in V6 does not represent ischaemia. In fact, lead V6 was inadvertently connected to an epicardial pacing wire, recording a unipolar signal (Fig. 2). www.elsevier...

  Background :Disruption of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a common ligamentous injury of the knee. The choice of graft for (ACL) reconstruction remains controversial. This prospective, randomized clinical trial aimed to compare clinical results of bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) grafts and four-strand semitendinosus-gracilis (ST) grafts for ACL reconstruction over a 3-year follow-up inte...

Pindad. headlight component made several manufacturing processes that were carried out. It consists many parts, which a variety machines manufacture each part. components using machining such as laser cutting, welding, and drilli...

We analyzed the clinicobiological features and treatment outcome of a series of acute promyelocytic leukemias (APLs) occurring as a second tumor (APL-st's, n = 51) and compared these with a large group of de novo APL cases (n = 641), both observed by the Italian cooperative group GIMEMA. In the APL-st group, 37 patients had received radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy for their primary malignancy ...

A novel putative autotransporter protein (NMB1998) was identified in the available genomic sequence of meningococcal strain MC58 (ET-5; ST-32). The mspA gene is absent from the genomic sequences of meningococcal strain Z2491 (ET-IV; ST-4) and the gonococcal strain FA1090. An orthologue is present in the meningococcal strain FAM18 (ET-37; ST-11), but the sequence contains a premature stop codon,...
