TL;DR: The development of this set of process-based measures represents an important step in the assessment of clinical practice in pediatric burn care, and further research is needed to link these process- based measures to clinical outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Central role of interleukin-6 in burn induced stimulation of hepatic amino acid transport.
TL;DR: It is suggested that interleukin-6 may play a key role in the stimulation of hepatic glutamine transport following burn injury, which produces a marked and prolonged hypermetabolic state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methods for the prevention or treatment of bacterial and fungal infections
TL;DR: In this paper, improved methods for treating, stabilizing, or preventing a bacterial or a fungal infection in a plant or an animal, such as a mammal, were presented, which involve the use of a compound, that is controlled by MvfR, and that affects the expression of an MvFR protein or that promotes its modification or inactivation, in late stationary phase cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI
