Rainwater Harvesting System (RWHS) is a collection and storage of rainwater for future use have many benefits related to the economy, environment, technology, society. Malaysia well positioned harvest because number rainy days in high average rainfall amount 2500 mm annually. Because effects topography Peninsular Malaysia, distribution varies significantly. Thus, data analysis harvesting potent...

Haemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) should be included in the differential diagnosis of pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO). The hallmark of HPS is the accumulation of activated macrophages that engulf haematopoietic cells in the reticuloendothelial system. We describe a patient with unexplained fever in which a final diagnosis of HPS was established in a bone marrow study.

Results: Our clinical case focuses on a patient who was diagnosed with a mixed picture delirium after developing PUO. This case report notes that Mr A, a patient already prescribed donepezil hydrochloride, saw an improvement in his behavioral symptoms after an increase in his dose. This enabled the patient to avoid receiving neuroleptic or benzodiazepine medication, known to be particularly pro...

pUO-StVR2 is a virulence-resistance plasmid which originated from pSLT of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium through acquisition of a complex resistance island, flanked by regions that provide a toxin-antitoxin system and an iron uptake system. The presence of resistance and virulence determinants on the same plasmid allows coselection of both properties, potentially increasing health risks.

OBJECTIVE To describe characteristic ultrasound findings and clinical features of patients with newly diagnosed cranial and large-vessel (LV) GCA in a specialized ultrasound clinic. METHODS This case-control study includes all consecutive patients between 1997 and 2006 with newly diagnosed GCA. Duplex ultrasound of the temporal, subclavian, axillary and proximal brachial arteries was performe...

Plutonium dioxide (PuO2) is an important compound used in nuclear fuel, irradiation targets, and heat sources. As such, improved understanding of its structural spectroscopic properties has numerous applications. Alpha particle-induced damage a PuO2 crystal lattice modifies several Raman spectrum, including band intensities, positions, widths. The decay also induces growth new bands creates ele...

Prolonged fever in patients can be a diagnostic challenge. Clinicians generally consider infectious diseases, malignant diseases and collagen vascular diseases as possible causes of pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO). Even after extensive evaluation as many as 15 percent of patients with prolonged fever may remain undiagnosed. This case report describes subacute thyroiditis as a cause of prolonged...

Macrophage Activation Syndrome (MAS) occurs as a severe life-threatening complication of several chronic rheumatic diseases. It is more frequent with systemic onset juvenile arthritis and adult onset Still's disease.1 It can be primary, infection related, malignancy associated or autoimmune3. We report a case of Macrophage Activation Syndrome presenting as pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO) and pa...

Infections are the commonest cause of morbidity and mortality in renal transplant recipients. In India, tuberculosis is a one such common infection in these patients and presents with protean manifestations. We report here a case of pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO) and segmental portal hypertension in a renal transplant recipient. Search for the cause of portal hypertension revealed abdominal tu...
