Hemodynamics Change and Clinical Efficacy on Cervical Spondylosis of Vertebral Artery Type Treated by Hot Compress Therapy with Medicinal Salt Pillow by Li CHEN, Lijun YAO, Li ZHAO, Chunqiao FU, Xiaoyu XU

“…Compared with the control group, the improvement of (LVA+RVA) Vp/2 in the observation group with slow blood flow velocity after treatment was more significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt; 0.05). 3) The PI was reduced after treatment in the two groups, and the reduction in observation group with slow blood flow velocity was superior to that in the control group after treatment (<italic>P</italic>&lt; 0.05). 4) The asymmetry of blood flow velocity showed that the difference of peak systolic blood flow velocity of bilateral vertebro-basilar artery[|LVA-RVA|Vp]in the observation group was dropped significantly after treatment (<italic>P</italic>&lt; 0.05). …”

Evaluation of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and Sepsityper Kit™ for the Direct Identification of Organisms from Sterile Body Fluids in a Canadian Pediatric Hospital by Manal Tadros, Astrid Petrich

“…Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) can be used to identify bacteria directly from positive blood and sterile fluid cultures. The authors evaluated a commercially available kit – the Sepsityper Kit (Bruker Daltonik, Germany) – and MALDI-TOF MS for the rapid identification of organisms from 80 flagged positive blood culture broths, of which 73 (91.2%) were blood culture specimens and seven (8.7%) were cerebrospinal fluid specimens, in comparison with conventional identification methods. …”

TSE Diagnostics: Recent Advances in Immunoassaying Prions by Anja Lukan, Tanja Vranac, Vladka Čurin Šerbec

“…However, the ultimate goal of TSE diagnostics is an ante mortem test, which would be sensitive enough to detect prions in body fluids, that is, in blood, cerebrospinal fluid, or urine. Such a test would be of paramount importance also for screening of asymptomatic carriers of the disease with the aim of increasing food, drugs, and blood-derived products safety. …”
