Clinical isolates of Trichomonas vaginalis were obtained from women consecutively enrolled in a study of partner notification. Testing of susceptibility to metronidazole and tinidazole was performed. Resistance to metronidazole and tinidazole was present in 17/178 (9.6%) and 1/178 (0.56%) strains, respectively. In vitro resistance was poorly correlated with clinical response to treatment.

The authors' aim in this study was to analyze the association of nocturia with overweight and obesity. In 2003-2004, a questionnaire was mailed to 6,000 randomly selected Finns aged 18-79 years who were identified from the Finnish Population Register Centre. Information on nocturia was collected through questionnaires using the Danish Prostatic Symptom Score and the American Urological Associat...

An investigation into the isolability of the location of intake and exhaust manifold leaks in heavy duty diesel engines is presented. In particular, established fault detection and isolation (FDI) methods are explored to assess their utility in successfully determining the location of a leak within the air path of an engine equipped with exhaust gas recirculation and an asymmetric twin-scroll t...

AIMS Resistin is an adipocyte-derived factor implicated in obesity-associated type 2 diabetes (T2DM). This study examines the association between human serum resistin, T2DM and coronary heart disease. METHODS One hundred and fourteen Saudi Arabian patients (male: female ratio 46:68; age 51.4 (mean +/- SD)11.7 years; median and range: 45.59 (11.7) years and BMI: 27.1 (mean +/- SD) 8.1 Kgm2 med...

Repeated measures can occur on subjects that are nested within clusters. The clusters may be considered a random effect. Then the covariance structure must accommodate between-cluster variance as well as within-cluster covariance. There also may be higher levels of clustering. In addition, there may be other fixed effect factors that are crossed with some or all of the random effects. The covar...

We present two epoch polarimetric images of the BL Lac object 0735+178 obtained with the Very Long Baseline Array at 22 and 43 GHz. These images provide the highest resolution observations of this source to date, and show a twisted jet with two sharp apparent bends of 90 within two milliarcseconds of the core. The magnetic field appears to smoothly follow one of the bends in the jet, suggesting...

We report the results of deep Hα imaging of the ionized gas surrounding the low-redshift (z = 0.0638) quasar MR 2251–178 using the TAURUS Tunable Filter (TTF) on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. Our observations reach a 2-σ detection level of ∼ 5 × 10 −18 erg s −1 cm −2 arcsec −2 , more than an order of magnitude deeper than conventional narrowband images previously published on this object. Our...

The CCAAT box is one of the most common elements in eukaryotic promoters, found in the forward or reverse orientation. Among the various DNA binding proteins that interact with this sequence, only NF-Y (CBF, HAP2/3/4/5) has been shown to absolutely require all 5 nt. Analysis of a database with 178 bona fide NF-Y binding sites in 96 unrelated promoters confirms this need and points to specific a...
