A new method for measuring the antioxidant power of wine has been developed based on accelerated electrochemical oxidation 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS). The calibration (R = 0.9922) and repeatability study (RSD 7%) have provided good statistical parameters. is easy quick to apply gives reliable results, requiring only monitoring time absorbance. It applied various red white wines different origins. results compared with those obtained by total status (TAS)...
From August 1978 to December 1981, 200 Streptococcus pneumoniae strains isolated from adult patients with pneumococcal disease were tested for susceptibility penicillin G, erythromycin, clindamycin, tetracycline, and chloramphenicol by disk diffusion. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) determined agar dilution broth dilution. The sources (numbers) of these isolates blood (111), cerebrospinal fluid (30), sputum (26), pleural (16), miscellaneous (17). Of the strains, 18 partially...
Objectives: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of preoperative multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) as a predictor extracapsular extension (ECE) and unfavorable Gleason score (GS) in patients with intermediate high-risk prostate cancer (PCa). Materials Methods: Patients clinically localized PCa who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) had mp-MRI between May-2011 December-2013. Mp-MRI was evaluated according to European Society Urogenital Radiology MRI guidelines by two...
A mutant laccase from the Ascomycete Myceliophthora thermophila has been submitted to iterative cycles of combinatorial saturation mutagenesis through in vivo overlap extension Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Over 180,000 clones were explored, among which S510G revealed a direct interaction between conserved VSG tripeptide, located neighborhood T1 site, and C-terminal plug. The K value increased 1.5-fold, electron transfer pathway reducing substrate copper ion was altered, improving catalytic...
Background: Sexual risk behaviors associated with poor information on sexuality have contributed to major public health problems in the area of sexual and reproductive teenagers young adults Colombia.
The endogenous content of polyamines and the expression genes involved in their metabolism were analyzed grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. 'Mencía') somatic embryo aggregates to determine effect a semipermeable membrane on maturation differentiation medium. polyamine was higher those cultured over significantly increased with culture time due an increase free fraction. Free putrescine represented more than 95% total fraction peaked second week membrane. This finding appears be supported by active...
Objectives: To determine safety, efficacy, and improvement in patient's quality of life (QoL) with 180-W green light laser prostate photovaporization medium-term follow-up. Methods: Observational descriptive analysis. All the patients who were treated photoselective vaporization potassium titanyl phosphate crystal between January 2012 February 2014 included. The primary outcome was change International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). A analysis conducted. Statistic inference made using...
Depression is a predictor of length stay (LOS) and adverse outcomes in patients with cardiac disease. Our objective was to assess the impact depression on LOS Hispanic population admitted cardiovascular intensive care unit (CVICU). This prospective study 151 consecutive CVICU. Patients were administered Center for Epidemiologic Studies (CES-D) scale survey within 24 hours admission. followed until discharge determine outcomes. more prevalent than nonHispanic based CES-D scores (41% vs 14%)....
Describe the scrotal surgical approach for abdominoscrotal hydrocele (ASH) withpreservation of testicular function with midterm follow-up. Two patientsdiagnosed ASH and contralateral abnormalities. Both had scrotalcorrection ASH, one neonatal torsion othercontralateral communicating hydrocele. Four-year follow-up no complications orrecurrence, normal Anti-Mullerian hormone level. This pathology is a clinicaldiagnosis it treated surgery via approach, preventing sequels,contralateral...
The purpose of this report is to describe an unusual case extramammary Paget's disease with urethral and lymph node infiltration demonstrate the role MRI in pre-operative period for assessment, management prognosis disease. Although skin wrinkles on may be misinterpreted based observer's experience, it correlates well pathology provide accurate assessment before interventional therapy.
Abstract Q-tip test offers a simple approach for identifying urethral hypermobility. Considering surgical treatment, stress urinary incontinence (SUI) must be classified and the contribution of intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) and/or hypermobility determine. We believe there's correlation between abdominal leak point pressure (ALPP) mobility degree, aim this study is to explore it using Q-tip. conducted prospective study, years 2014 2016. Females over 18 presenting with signs symptoms...
Background: Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) is associated with significant manipulation of the urinary tract (UT). We aim to describe urological events their management in patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC.Methods: Clinical records treatment between 2007 2015 were reviewed. Urological multidisciplinary analyzed. Descriptive statistics calculated.Results: A total 103 included. Mean age was 51 years (SD ± 11.8). peritoneal cancer index (PCI) 20.4...
The benign mature cystic teratoma is one of the most common human germ cell tumours encountered and it often found in ovaries women reproductive age. Cystic can produce a wide spectrum sonographic appearances, which depends on their major content. A 29-year-old was referred to gynecology department with diagnosis an incidental pelvic mass abdominal sonography that being carried as part acute calculous cholecystitis surgical workup. Pelvic examination showed soft palpable behind uterus smooth...
Abstract Introduction For low-risk prostate cancer (PCa), curative treatment with radical prostatectomy (RP) can be performed, reporting a biochemical relapse-free survival rate (bRFS) at 5 and 7 years of 90.1% 88.3%, respectively. Prostatic specific antigen (PSA), pathological stage (pT), positive margins (R1) are significant predictors relapse (BR). Even though pelvic lymphadenectomy is not recommended during RP, in the literature, it performed 34% these patients, finding 0.37% lymph nodes...
