Article Synopsis
- - A 13-year-old immunocompromised patient with febrile neutropenia due to osteosarcoma developed a catheter-associated bloodstream infection caused by a Gram-positive bacillus previously not linked to infections in children.
- - The bacterial species was identified using Sanger sequencing and was found to be multi-susceptible, especially to amoxicillin, leading to a treatment plan involving piperacillin/tazobactam for seven days.
- - Despite phylogenetic analyses revealing the complexity of the genus, they did not effectively predict the patient's clinical outcome based solely on 16S rDNA sequence information.
Purpose: To determine the effect of drafting on running time, physiological response, and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during 3000-m track running.
Methods: Ten elite middle- and long-distance runners performed 3 track-running sessions. The 1st session determined maximal oxygen uptake and maximal aerobic speed using a lightweight ambulatory respiratory gas-exchange system (K4B2).
Purpose: The purpose of this research is to study the effects of aging and combined training (sprint and strength) on catecholamine responses [adrenaline (A) and noradrenaline (NA)].
Methods: Thirty-two male subjects voluntarily participated in this study. They were randomly divided into four groups: A young trained group (age 21.
Acute encephalitis is mainly of viral origin. Two groups of are considered: i) primary encephalitis, such as Herpes simplex encephalitis with intra-thecal synthesis of antibodies, and ii) post-viral infection encephalitis or acute disseminated encephalitis with immune dysregulation. The most common clinical presentation (fever, consciousness disturbance and seizures) is not specific and may reveal bacterial meningitis or cerebral abscess which require a specific treatment.
