Erdman,Eileen Schneider,Lauri A. Hicks,Richard G. Wunderink,Kathryn M. Edwards,Andrew T. Pavia,Jonathan A. McCullers,Lyn Finelli +31 more
TL;DR: The incidence of community-acquired pneumonia requiring hospitalization was highest among the oldest adults and despite current diagnostic tests, no pathogen was detected in the majority of patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity of Conus neuropeptides
Baldomero M. Olivera,Jean Rivier,Craig Clark,Cecilia A. Ramilo,Gloria P. Corpuz,Fe C. Abogadie,E. Edward Mena,Scott Woodward,David R. Hillyard,Lourdes J. Cruz +9 more
TL;DR: It now seems that the Conus species will each use a distinctive assortment of peptides and that the pharmacological diversity in Conus venoms may be ultimately comparable to that of plant alkaloids or secondary metabolites of microorganisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new conus peptide ligand for mammalian presynaptic Ca2+ channels
David R. Hillyard,Virginia D. Monje,Isabelle M. Mintz,Bruce P. Bean,Laszlo Nadasdi,J. Ramachandran,George P. Miljanich,Aryan Azimi-Zoonooz,J. Michael McIntosh,Lourdes J. Cruz,Lourdes J. Cruz,Julita S. Imperial,Baldomero M. Olivera +12 more
TL;DR: A new Conus peptide is described that is an effective inhibitor of omega-CgTx-GVIA-resistant synaptic transmission and defines a general approach for obtaining ligands with novel receptor subtype specificity from Conus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serious Bacterial Infections in Febrile Infants 1 to 90 Days Old With and Without Viral Infections
Carrie L. Byington,F. Rene Enriquez,Charles Hoff,Richard Tuohy,Richard Tuohy,E. William Taggart,David R. Hillyard,Karen C. Carroll,John C. Christenson +8 more
TL;DR: Febrile infants with confirmed viral infections are at lower risk for SBI than those in whom a viral infection is not identified, and Viral diagnostic data can positively contribute to the management of febriel infants, especially those who are classified as HR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automated polymerase chain reaction in capillary tubes with hot air
TL;DR: A simple, compact, inexpensive thermal cycler that can be used for the polymerase chain reaction, based on heat transfer with air to samples in sealed capillary tubes, which resembles a recirculating hair dryer.
