A biomonitoring program has been developed in support of the National Policy for the Development of Water Quality-Based Permit Limitations for Toxic Pollutants.

Single species laboratory toxicity tests were found to be good predictors of impacts on the ecosystem when two or more species were

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In 1996 and 1997, 68 hospital laboratories throughout the United States determined the β-lactamase production and susceptibility to macrolides of 1,998 isolates of Haemophilus influenzaeobtained from patients with community-acquired respiratory tract infections. The MICs at which 90% of the isolates are inhibited of azithromycin, erythromycin, and clarithromycin were 4, 8, and 16 μg/ml, respectively. By National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards interpretive criteria, 99 and 78% of the isolates were susceptible to azithromycin and clarithromycin, respectively. The prevalence

Abstract:
Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) disproportionately affects certain populations, but few studies have investigated health outcome disparities among patients with CDI. This study aimed to characterize CDI treatment and health outcomes among patients by age group, sex, race, and ethnicity. This was a nationally representative, retrospective cohort study of patients with laboratory-confirmed CDI within the Premier Healthcare Database from January 2018 to March 2021. CDI therapies received and health outcomes were compared between patients by age group, sex, race, and Hispanic ethnicity us

Abstract:
In the past two decades, runoff-permeable porous pavement and porous friction courses of pavement systems have been implemented more frequently, first in Europe and subsequently in the United States. Consequently, research and case studies are increasing, with a commensurate increase in the knowledge base for these drainable pavement matrices and systems. The main distinguishing parameter of these porous matrices is the hydraulic conductivity (k), as compared with traditional impervious pavements. Equipment and standards for measuring k vary widely. This variability includes laboratory and fie

U.S. offshore wind energy resources are abundant, indigenous, and broadly dispersed among the most expensive and highly constrained electricity load centers. Economic capacity expansion models developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory show that offshore wind energy can compete in future U.S. electric energy markets without major changes in the market variables or revolutionary technological breakthroughs. However, significant research, development, and deployment will be needed to bring the current technology through a course of cost reductions. To maximize the resource potential,

Critical results demand rapid patient evaluation, possibly followed by life-saving intervention. A national survey of children's hospitals determined the critical limits used for emergency notification of critical laboratory results.

The assessment of backwater resulting from extra energy losses on flood flows caused by bridge constrictions is of vital interest in hydraulic engineering due to its importance in the design of waterways and management of flooding. Although many detailed methods for estimating bridge backwater have been developed, an initial estimate of the magnitude of bridge backwater using a practical model, such as the multiple linear regression (MLR) technique, has a crucial importance for rapid evaluation of flood damages upstream of the bridge structure.

Abstract Abstract 2203 Background: Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is frequently characterized by severe ADAMTS13 deficiency, the cause of which is unknown. An important exception is ticlopidine-associated TTP (tc-TTP), the most common drug-induced TTP syndrome. In 1998, a possible association of TTP with ticlopidine was reported. In 1999, two additional series reported this association. In 2000, a fourth study reported severe A DAMTS13 deficiency among six of seven tc-TTP persons- suggesting a causal pathway. All of these reports were from the United States. Recently, we reported ch
