Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infections in children, and usually it appears in early childhood. The aim of this study was to find out the incidence and distribution of urinary tract infections in childhood, and to analyze clinical presentation of urinary tract infections in children. In the retrospective study were included 164 children, of both genders, who were trea...

Computer viruses are increasing in number and severity, and current tactics for preventing their spread frequently fail. To understand the computer virus phenomenon, I used a model of the internet called scale-free networks. I collected data from three different types of epidemic simulation. The results suggest that a concentrated effort to use anti-virus techniques at the busiest e-mail server...

We present radio observations at three frequencies and contemporaneous optical monitoring of the peculiar BL Lac object AO 0235+164. During a three-week campaign with the VLA we observed intraday variability in this source and found a distinct peak which can be identified throughout the radio frequencies and tentatively connected to the R-band variations. This event is characterized by unusual ...

The M line, which transverses the center of the thick filament region of skeletal muscle sarcomeres, appears to be a complex array of multiple structural elements. To date, two proteins have definitely been shown to be associated with the M line. They are MM-CK, localized in the M 4,4' substriations, and a 165,000-dalton (164 kd) protein, referred to as both M-protein and myomesin. Here we repo...

The objective of the present study was to investigate vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) isoform regulation of cell fate decisions of spermatogonial stem cells (SSC) in vivo. The expression pattern and cell-specific distribution of VEGF isoforms, receptors, and coreceptors during testis development postnatal d 1-180 suggest a nonvascular function for VEGF regulation of early germ cell...

Small-molecule Smac mimetics are being developed as a novel class of anticancer drugs. Recent studies have shown that Smac mimetics target cellular inhibitor of apoptosis protein (cIAP)-1/2 for degradation and induce tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha)-dependent apoptosis in tumor cells. In this study, we have investigated the mechanism of action and therapeutic potential of two different ty...

We evaluated a new membrane dot immunobinding assay (CMV-CUBE; Difco Laboratories) for the detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) antibody in marrow transplant patients and donors. The CMV-CUBE assay was compared with a commercially available enzyme immunoassay (EIA; CMV STAT) and a latex agglutination (LA; CMVScan) test. Serum samples were collected from 311 transplant patients and donors prior to...
