Abstract Background For pregnant women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), concurrent active tuberculosis (TB) disease increases the risk of maternal mortality and poor pregnancy outcomes. Plasma indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) activity measured by kynurenine-to-tryptophan (K/T) ratio has been proposed as a blood-based TB biomarker. We investigated whether plasma K/T ratio could be used to diagnose active TB among pregnant women with HIV. Methods Using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), we measured K/T ratio in 72 pregnant women with and active TB and compared them to

In this work, we investigated the influence of fluorocarbon component ratio in the CF4 + C4F8 + O2 gas mixture on electro-physical plasma parameters, steady-state densities of active species and silicon etching kinetics under typical reactive-ion process conditions. The combination of plasma diagnostics (double Langmuir probes, optical emission spectroscopy) and plasma modeling confirmed known peculiarities of plasma chemistry of individual fluorocarbons in the presence of oxygen as well as provided an extended analysis of both fluorine and oxygen atom kinetics in the three-component gas mixtu

Intravenous angiotensin II infusion (0·3 μg/kg body wt per min for 1 h) in four Na+-replete 16-month-old bulls decreased salivary Na+ concentration and increased that of K+. It also increased plasma cortisol and plasma aldosterone concentrations, and decreased plasma renin activity (PRA). In four 16-month-old bulls Na+ def

Abstract Plasma diagnostics is a topic having a great impact on R&amp;D in compact ion sources as well as in large fusion reactors. Towards this aim, non-invasive microwave diagnostics approaches, such as interferometric, polarimetric and microwave imaging profilometric techniques can allow obtaining volumetric, line-integrated or even space-resolved information about plasma electron density. Special probes can be also designed and implemented in order to characterize external and/or self-generated radio-waves in the plasmas. In particular, the design, construction and operation of a K-band mi

There are several markers of renal hypoperfusion which are used in the differential diagnosis of acute kidney failure. Albuminuria is observed after almost any exercise.

The TTKG was close to 7 in aldosterone deficient ADX rats while on a normal K+ diet and fell towards unity when amiloride or a low K+ diet was administered to these rats. 4. With a longer time on

Abstract When relativistic heavy ions collide, a plasma of quarks and gluons is created. It expands, cools down and eventually reaches the hadronization temperature, when a hadron gas phase is formed. In this phase, K ∗ and K can interact with light mesons and change their abundances with respect to the predictions of statistical hadronization models. In a previous article, we studied the effect of the cooling of the gas, the freeze-out temperature and the interaction cross sections on the K ∗/K yield ratio.

Linear relationships were confirmed between the applied volume (1.25~5.0 µl) and the counts of X-ray from each element. Some elements showed, however, saturated curves over 5.0 µl.
