TL;DR: The results indicate that clarithromycin modified inflammation by sup-pressing IL-8 production and that clarityromycin may affect the expression of other genes through AP-1 and NF-kappa B.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Acting Neuraminidase Inhibitor Laninamivir Octanoate versus Oseltamivir for Treatment of Influenza: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Noninferiority Clinical Trial
TL;DR: A single inhalation of laninamivir octanoate is effective for the treatment of seasonal influenza, including that caused by oseltamiviral-resistant virus, in adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of a polymerase chain reaction assay and a conventional microbiologic method for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
TL;DR: The PCR assay was found to be a sensitive and reliable procedure for the rapid diagnosis of MRSA infection, even in cases in which the conventional MIC assay failed to detect MRSA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochromism of polyaniline film prepared by electrochemical polymerization
Journal ArticleDOI
