Obstetrics & Gynecology (116)2 Pt 1 2010
Abstract
We searched electronic databases of the human literature in PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library up to February 2010 using the following key words: "preterm/pre-term + (birth/delivery)" and "cytokine" or "inflammation/inflammatory + marker/biomarker."
We included observational studies that repor...

Abstract
Abstract
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common nosocomial infection in the intensive care unit (ICU) and its outcome is affected by the adequacy and timing of initial antibiotic therapy. Recent studies have suggested that surveillance cultures of the lower airways may provide microbiologic...

Zoology (Jena) (113)2 2010
Abstract
We killed slugs at different mating stages and studied their penial glands and skin histologically. Two types of secretion granules appeared at a very early stage of courtship, and the penial gland was already filled 15min into the courtship. At copulation, the gland everted this secretion onto the...

Abstract
A total of 85 pediatric patients (63 male, 22 female; mean age: 7.88+/-3.403 years) with blunt abdominal trauma were included in the present study. Forty percent of the patients had intraperitoneal fluid, while 60% had pelvic fluid. The majority (35.3%) of patients applied due to falling from height...

Abstract
We suggest that oleic acid in femoral secretions might be a reliable advertisement of a male's body condition, which females could use to select high-quality mates in conjunction with information provided by other chemicals. Alternatively, scent marks with more oleic acid might be simply more attrac...

Abstract
Persistent umbilical drainage may be due to vestigial remnants of the omphalomesenteric duct. Rarely, it may be owing to the presence of ectopic pancreatic tissue within these remnants. An 18-month-old boy underwent surgical exploration for umbilical discharge. An umbilical nodule containing both ec...

Abstract
Biparental Campbell's hamster (Phodopus campbelli) were used for testing the hypothesis that secretions of father-male specific skin glands (midventral gland and additional sacculi) may promote juveniles survival in mother's absence. For the hypothesis testing, juveniles at age 7 or 8 days were left...

We prospectively tested the clinical effectiveness of cevimeline at increasing saliva secretion in patients with SS, and the results were compared with the clinical parameters of the patients. Saliva secretion was increased >160% in 17 of 30 (56.7%) patients (P < 0.005). When the clinical parameters...

Abstract
We analyzed virus-free supernatants from HCMV-infected cells (HCMV secretomes) for growth factors, by mass spectrometry and immunoassays, and found that the HCMV secretome contains over 1,000 cellular proteins, many of which are involved in AG/WH. Importantly, functional assays demonstrated that CMV...

Dimeric ExsC also interacts directly with ExsD to form a heterotetrameric complex. The difference in bind...
