Efficacy and safety of darunavir/ritonavir at 48 weeks in treatment-naïve, HIV-1-infected adolescents: results from a phase 2 open-label trial (DIONE).

Background: Twice-daily darunavir/ritonavir is indicated in treatment-experienced children (≥3 years). This study assessed once-daily administration in treatment-naïve adolescents.

Methods: Phase 2, 48-week, open-label, single-arm study evaluating pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of once-daily darunavir/ritonavir 800/100 mg in treatment-naïve, HIV-1-infected adolescents (≥12 to <18 years, ≥40 kg) with zidovudine/lamivudine or abacavir/lamivudine.

Effects of bedding type on compost quality of equine stall waste: implications for small horse farms.

Our objective in this study is to compare 4 of the most common bedding materials used by equine operations on the chemical and physical characteristics of composted equine stall waste. Twelve Standardbred horses were adapted to the barn and surrounding environment for 2 wk before the start of the study. Groups of 3 horses were bedded on 1 of 4 different bedding types (wood shavings, pelletized wood materials, long straw, and pelletized straw) for 16 h per day for 18 d.

Faking and the validity of conscientiousness: a Monte Carlo investigation.

The article reports the findings from a Monte Carlo investigation examining the impact of faking on the criterion-related validity of Conscientiousness for predicting supervisory ratings of job performance. Based on a review of faking literature, 6 parameters were manipulated in order to model 4,500 distinct faking conditions (5 [magnitude] x 5 [proportion] x 4 [variability] x 3 [faking-Conscientiousness relationship] x 3 [faking-performance relationship] x 5 [selection ratio]). Overall, the results indicated that validity change is significantly affected by all 6 faking parameters, with the relationship between faking and performance, the proportion of fakers in the sample, and the magnitude of faking having the strongest effect on validity change.

[Lipids in the exhaled air condensate of pneumonia patients].

Lipid composition of exhaled air condensate (EAC) was assessed by thin layer chromatography in patients with pneumonia and normal subjects. In parallel with this, diene conjugates and diene ketones were assessed by spectrophotometry. Berhan's principle was for the first time used for noninvasive obtaining of EAC from each lung separately.
