Pseudomonas aeruginosa is 1 of the bacteria most adaptive to anti-bacterial treatment. Previous studies have shown nosocomial spread and transmission of clonal strains of P. aeruginosa in European hospitals. In this study we investigated antibiotic susceptibility and clonality in 101 P. aeruginosa isolates from 88 patients admitted to 8 Swedish ICUs during 2002. We also compared phenotypes and gen
Background: The purpose of this work was to study usage of antibiotics, its possible determinants, and patterns of bacterial resistance in Swedish intensive care units (ICUs). Methods: Prospectively collected data on species and antibiotic resistance of clinical isolates and antibiotic consumption specific to each ICU in 1999 were analyzed together with answers to a questionnaire. Antibiotic usage
Local infection control measures, antibiotic consumption and patient demographics from 1999-2000 together with bacteriological analyses were investigated in 29 ICUs participating in the ICU-STRAMA programme. The median antibiotic consumption per ICU was 1147 (range 605-2143) daily doses per 1000 occupied bed d (DDD1000). Antibiotics to which >90% of isolates of an organism were susceptible were de
In this thesis we study the backward shift operator on various spaces of analytic functions, and integral operators of Cesàro type also acting on various spaces of analytic functions.
Tobaksrökning är som tur är på nedåtgående i de flesta länder. Ändå är tobaksodlingen fortfarande en stor industri och många hoppas på att hitta nya användningsområden för denna giftiga växt. Lars Olof Björn och Ingvar Kärnefelt berättar tobakens historia ur ett både botaniskt och mänskligt perspektiv.
Background: Dose-dense (DD) adjuvant chemotherapy improves outcomes in early breast cancer (BC). However, there are no phase 3 randomized data to inform on its combination with trastuzumab for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–positive disease. Methods: This was a protocol-predefined secondary analysis of the randomized phase 3 Pan-European Tailored Chemotherapy (PANTHE
UNLABELLED: Tissue kallikrein is released in the body both physiologically and in many inflammatory disorders. Little is, however, known about the turnover of released tissue kallikrein in humans. Approximately 1 mg of tissue kallikrein (mol wt 43,000 Da) was purified from 85 L human urine by: (1) ultracentrifugation, (2) filtration through an aprotinin-coupled Sepharose 4B column, followed by (3)
