The objective: to evaluate functional and radiological data of the respiratory system assessment in patients with impaired lung diffusion capacity post-COVID period. Subjects Methods. Clinical, were analyzed compared divided into two groups according degree (LDC) impairment measured by carbon monoxide (Dlco) after 180 (135–196) days from onset acute symptoms COVID-19: Group 1 included Dlco 80–6...

Patients and methods: A prospective, open-label study was conducted in 20 patients undergoing CRRT. Blood and dialysate-ultrafiltrate samples were obtained after administration of 500 mg, 1000 mg or 2000 mg of meropenem every 6 or 8 hours by intravenous infusion. The data were analysed under the population approach using NONMEM version V software. Age, bodyweight, dialysate plus ultrafiltrate f...

Within this review, we describe a home-built pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrometer operating at 180 GHz as well as the incorporation of two double resonance techniques, electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) and pulsed electron double resonance (PELDOR), along with first applications. Hahn-echo decays on a TEMPO/polystyrene sample are presented, demonstrating that the obs...

Juvenile turbot Scophthalmus maximus that became sick during an outbreak of disease at mariculture facilities at Go-Chang, Korea, in 2003, were examined to identify the cause of the disease. The fish had pale body color, an enlarged abdomen, protruding eyes, an enlarged spleen and kidney, and pale gills and/or liver.

Background: Respiratory tract infections caused by some viruses with cattle origin have been demonstrated in sheep and goats. OBJECTIVES: The main goal of this study was to determine Bovine Herpes virus type 1 BHV1antigen in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded lung tissue of pneumonic sheep, using immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining method. METHODS: For this purpose, the lungs of 4079 sheep, which...
