INTRODUCTION Increasing numbers of new HIV infection is an important issue of public health in Taiwan. We aim to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of HIV non-occupational prophylaxis (nPEP) in Taiwan. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort observational study between March 2011 and May 2014. Three-combined antiretroviral agents were prescribed for all the pe...

Objectives Obesity is a globally well-established risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases; however, some studies have witnessed survival benefits among obese patients and this phenomenon termed ‘the obesity paradox’. Our aim was to evaluate the existence of an paradox in with ‘ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (STE-ACS)’ our population. Methods In observational study, we incl...

Genomic aberrations are of predominant importance to the biology and clinical outcome of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and FISH-based genomic risk classifications are routinely used in clinical decision making in CLL. One of the known limitations of CLL FISH is the inability to comprehensively interrogate the CLL genome for genomic changes. In an effort at overcoming the exi...

Vincristine was incubated at 37 degrees C for 72 h in 0.2 M glycine buffer (pH 7.4 or 8.8) containing 1% bovine serum albumin. The reaction mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis (muBondapak C18 reverse-phase 10-micron steel column; solvent, 50% MeOH in 10 mM KH2PO4, pH 4.5; flow rate, 1.2 ml/min) of the CH2Cl2 extract gave 6 peaks, A, B, C, D, E, and...

We present an algorithm to obtain a lower bound on the distance of cyclic codes, improving Schaub algorithm. In particular, we can provide new better bounds for the duals of binary primitive narrowsense BCH codes of length 255.
