TL;DR: Postgonococcal urethritis (PGU) occurred in nearly two thirds of men with gonorrhea acquired in the Far East who were "successfully" treated with procaine penicillin G plus probenecid, suggesting a microbial etiology for the condition.
Abstract: Postgonococcal urethritis (PGU) occurred in nearly two thirds of men with gonorrhea acquired in the Far East who were "successfully" treated with 2,400,000 units of procaine penicillin G plus probenecid. PGU occurred less often after treatment of gonorrhea with tetracycline hydrochloride, and PGU itself responded to tetracycline, suggesting a microbial etiology for the condition. The syndrome was associated to a highly significant degree withMycoplasmainfection of the urethra, and occurred more often after infection with Neisseriagonorrhoeaeof lessened penicillin sensitivity. The high incidence of the syndrome, one of the most common infectious diseases among military personnel in the Far East, requires a reexamination of the traditional use of penicillin in the treatment of gonorrhea in men.

TL;DR: In this article, a quasi-coherent Alfven frequency mode (AFM) was observed in TFTR neutral beam heated plasmas as well as in ohmic Plasmas.
Abstract: An Alfven frequency mode (AFM) is very often seen in TFTR neutral beam heated plasmas as well as in ohmic plasmas. This quasi-coherent mode has so far only been seen on magnetic fluctuation diagnostics (Mirnov coils). A close correlation between the plasma edge density and the mode activity (frequency and amplitude) has been observed, which indicates that the AFM is an edge localized mode with r/a>0.85. No direct impact of this mode on the plasma global performance or on fast ion loss (e.g., the alpha particles in DT experiments) has been observed. This mode is not the conventional TAE (toroidicity induced Alfven eigenmode). The present TAE theory cannot explain this observation. Other possible explanations are discussed

TL;DR: Dietary advice can contribute to healthier eating habits and a trend for weight loss in RTR with AGT and these improvements in conjunction with multidisciplinary care and pharmacological treatment can lead to improvements in cardiovascular risk factors such as lipid profile.

TL;DR: The results of an international collaboration to produce and make freely available a draft sequence of the human genome are reported and an initial analysis is presented, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the sequence.
Abstract: The human genome holds an extraordinary trove of information about human development, physiology, medicine and evolution. Here we report the results of an international collaboration to produce and make freely available a draft sequence of the human genome. We also present an initial analysis of the data, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the sequence.

TL;DR: A theory of intergroup conflict and some preliminary data relating to the theory is presented in this article. But the analysis is limited to the case where the salient dimensions of the intergroup differentiation are those involving scarce resources.
Abstract: This chapter presents an outline of a theory of intergroup conflict and some preliminary data relating to the theory. Much of the work on the social psychology of intergroup relations has focused on patterns of individual prejudices and discrimination and on the motivational sequences of interpersonal interaction. The intensity of explicit intergroup conflicts of interests is closely related in human cultures to the degree of opprobrium attached to the notion of "renegade" or "traitor." The basic and highly reliable finding is that the trivial, ad hoc intergroup categorization leads to in-group favoritism and discrimination against the out-group. Many orthodox definitions of "social groups" are unduly restrictive when applied to the context of intergroup relations. The equation of social competition and intergroup conflict rests on the assumptions concerning an "ideal type" of social stratification in which the salient dimensions of intergroup differentiation are those involving scarce resources.
