EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractEditorial Commentary: Challenge of Non–AIDS-Defining Cancers (NADCs), Focusing on Trans Activation Response Element (TAR) RNA Embedding ExosomesLechuang Chen, Ge JinGlobally, 37.9 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2018 (Organization, 2018). Cancer is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in AIDS patients and chronically HIV-infected people. With the aid of combination Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), people living with HIV (PLWH) have a longer life span. However, because the virus is not completely eradicated, PLWH under antiretroviral … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2019 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOutcomes and Risk Factors Associated with Drug Resistant Tuberculosis in Rural Eastern Cape, South AfricaCarine Bokop Fotso, Sandeep D. Vasaikar, Teke ApalataWith the emergence of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) and Extensively Drug-Resistant (XDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Tuberculosis (TB) has become an even greater threat in South Africa (SA). The study sought to investigate the resistance pattern of anti-TB drugs in M. tuberculosis as well as to determine the associated risk factors and outcomes for MDR-TB and XDR-TB. A descriptive study was conducted … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 15 Aug 2018 · 9,537 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of Phenolic Compounds in Creosote Treated Wood Waste by a Composting Microbial Culture Augmented with the Fungus Thermoascus aurantiacusAbdel E. Ghaly, Bopeng Zhang, Deepika DaveProblem statement: Creosote is used as a wood preservative and water proof agent in railway sleepers, utility poles, buildings foundations and fences and garden furniture. It is a mixture of over 300 hydrocarbons which include 75% polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, 2-17% phenolic compounds and 10-18% heterocyclic organic compounds. Exposure to creosote may result in several health problems including damage to kidney, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 Aug 2011 · 9,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPharmacodynamic Comparison of the Carbapenems Against E. coli and Klebsiella spp. Containing Extended spectrum β-lactamasesKathryn J. Eagye, Joseph L. Kuti, David P. NicolauCarbapenems are the treatment of choice for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). Ertapenem is a new member of the carbapenem class, and is often grouped with imipenem and meropenem as a recommended treatment for ESBLs. However, new in vitro data question ertapenem’s inclusion as a first line treatment for these bacteria, suggesting that ertapenem has a lower likelihood of obtaining appropriate pharmacodynamic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordElectromagnetic Assessment on Human Safety of Mobile Communication Base Stations at University of MacauK.H. Chiang, K.W. TamAssessment of the electromagnetic exposure due to the mobile communication base station at University of Macau is presented by two testing scenarios. The first scenario about 20 in-situ measurements and the maximum E-field strength was 2.46 V/m that well below the threshold and compliant to the safety guideline. The second scenario investigates on the distance effect of exposure due to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,754 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordFSH Receptor and Ki-67 Protein Expressions of Endometrial Macaque in Mid-Luteal Phase after Exposure to Various Doses of Recombinant FSH and Fixed-Dose of GnRH AgonistNurhuda Sahar, Ponco Birowo, Rosalina Thuffi et al.There are many advances in Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs). However, implantation rates are still low. The embryo implantation is a mutual interaction between the blastocyst and endometrium. This study aimed to investigate the endometrial cell proliferation stimulated by recombinant Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (rFSH) in various doses by looking at FSH-Receptor (FSHR) and Ki-67 protein expressions. The studied samples were Stored Biological … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 28 May 2021 · 6,349 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Use of a Combination Vaccine in International Travelers Visiting Countries with High Endemic Rates of Hepatitis A and/or Hepatitis BBradley A. Connor, Susan Anderson, Robert SteffenHepatitis A and B represent a significant threat to international travelers. Both diseases are preventable through vaccination, though fewer than half of at-risk visitors in endemic regions are protected. Current vaccination recommendations should be revised to ensure adequate immunity for all international travelers against hepatitis A and B, as both diseases pose comparable danger. Since exposure to the viruses cannot … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,784 accessesView PDFCite
