The thermodilution (TD) method of determining cardiac output (CO) is widely used in clinical practice, but its reliability this setting not well understood and may be poor. This especially true when dealing with unstable patients using commercial TD devices. Numerous published reports have shown markedly variable results comparing simultaneously the Fick or dye-dilution methods catheterization laboratories, intensive care units, operating rooms. In order to assist clinicians interpreting...
Objectives: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and HIV infections share risk factors; therefore, coinfection is common. Interactions have been reported but controlled studies limited. Our objective was to study the effect of infection on natural history chronic HBV reverse carrier state infection. Design: Prospective observational cohort study. Setting: Open-access outpatient HIV/genitourinary medicine clinic at a Central London hospital. Patients: Total 152 untreated homosexual male carriers 212...
OBJECTIVE--To determined the prevalence of hepatitis C virus infection and associated risk factors in patients attending a genitourinary medicine clinic, as evidence for sexual transmission. DESIGN--Seroprevalence estimated by reactivity an enzyme immunoassay antibodies to C100 protein with supplementary testing recombinant immunoblot assay RNA. SETTING--Outpatient clinic central London. PATIENTS--The panel 1046 serum samples was from 1074 consecutive during November December 1987 having...
Intact female Beagles from life-span studies in the Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute colony were examined for mammary tumor incidence. The breeding colony, founded 1963, produced five generations 28 founder females. After proportional hazards analysis, two maternal families shown to have markedly different phenotypes, one susceptible and resistant neoplasia, as compared with entire colony. When tumors subdivided into benign malignant based on local invasiveness, familial differences...
SUMMARY Methods for assessing a new measurement technique are examined. The structural equations model is used to estimate the linear relationship between and standard methods. delta method find variance of estimated parameters. A comparison with regression analysis made. This illustrated by study on measuring cardiac output data drawn from published reports. estimates different reports combined give an overall
Prescription psychostimulants, such as methylphenidate (MPH), have served a first line treatment for ADHD and associated developmental disorders since 1961. Psychostimulants has been shown to improve attention, response inhibition, reduce hyperactivity in patients with ADHD, well non-clinical human populations animals. While there is considerable amount of preclinical research investigating the effects stimulant medications on reward sensitivity basic learning male rats, less understood...
