Abstract Background Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus (GBS)) is an important human pathogen, particularly of newborns.Emerging evidence for a relationship between genotype and virulence has accentuated the need for efficient and well-defined typing methods.The objective of this study was to develop a single nucleotide polymorphism (SN
Abstract Background Those attempting to implement changes in health care settings often find that intervention efforts do not progress as expected.Unexpected outcomes are often attributed to variation and/or error in implementation processes.We argue that some unanticipated variation in intervention outcomes arises because unexpected conversations
Abstract Background The fibroblast growth factor receptor substrate 2 (FRS2) gene is located close to MDM2 and CDK4 within the 12q13-15 chromosomal region.FRS2 gene was recently found to be consistently amplified in atypical lipomatous tumor (ALT)/well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDL) and dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDL), suggesting the detection
Rapeseed, weeds, and pathogens interact with each other.However, these interactions are not well understood.The aim of our work was to describe the relationships between weed vegetation and pathogen manifestations in rapeseed stands.Results from the four seasons show that different rapeseed stand structures produce different weed and pathogen respo
Introduction Over 4.5 TB of data will be collected in a randomized clinical trial assessing continuous pressure imaging technology in reducing pressure injuries.To permit efficient analysis we examined different approaches to generating a reduced representation of the data that still produced similar analytical results to the full data set.Objectiv
