It is currently thought that life-long blood cell production is driven by the action of a small
number of multipotent haematopoietic stem cells. Evidence supporting this view has been …

Background The authors tested the hypotheses that, compared with an overnight continuous
femoral nerve block (cFNB), a 4-day ambulatory cFNB increases ambulation distance and …

A continuous femoral nerve block (cFNB) involves the percutaneous insertion of a catheter
adjacent to the femoral nerve, followed by a local anesthetic infusion, improving analgesia …

Objective Retrograde pedal access may allow the treatment of tibial occlusive lesions when
standard endovascular techniques fail. We aimed to analyze the outcomes in patients with …

Zika virus (ZIKV) is a globally emerging mosquito-transmitted flavivirus that can cause severe
fetal abnormalities, including microcephaly. As such, highly sensitive, specific, and cost-…

Although many different crop species have been used to produce a wide range of vaccines,
antibodies, biopharmaceuticals and industrial enzymes, tobacco has the most established …

Background The authors tested the hypotheses that after hip arthroplasty, ambulation distance
is increased and the time required to reach three specific readiness-for-discharge criteria …

Dengue virus (DENV) and West Nile virus (WNV) are two well-documented mosquito-borne
flaviviruses that cause significant health problems worldwide. Driven by this need, we have …

West Nile virus (WNV) can cause severe human neurological diseases including encephalitis
and meningitis. The mechanisms by which WNV enters the central nervous system (CNS) …

BACKGROUND: It remains unclear whether local anesthetic concentration or total drug dose
is the primary determinant of continuous peripheral nerve block effects. The only previous …
