Characterization of a Mycobacterium tuberculosis insertion sequence, IS6110, and its application in diagnosis.
TL;DR: An insertion sequence-like element, IS6110, was isolated from a Mycobacterium tuberculosis cosmid library as a repetitive sequence and found to be specific to mycobacteria belonging to the M. tuberculosis complex.

TL;DR: In this paper, a radially collapsible and expandable prosthetic heart valve is disclosed, with a valve frame having a tapered profile when mounted on a delivery shaft, with an inflow end portion having a smaller diameter than an outflow end portion, and a diagonally woven inner skirt can elongate axially with the frame.
Patent
Device and method for replacing mitral valve
TL;DR: A prosthetic mitral valve assembly and method of inserting the same is described in this article, where the valve assembly can be adapted to expand radially outwardly and into contact with the native tissue to create a pressure fit.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Brisson-Noel,C Aznar,C Chureau,Son V. Nguyen,C Pierre,M Bartoli,R Bonete,G Pialoux,Brigitte Gicquel,G Garrigue +9 more
TL;DR: The potential of DNA amplification for early diagnosis of mycobacterial infections is confirmed and pre-treatment of samples with guanidium thiocyanate reduced the proportion of false-negative results and of samples that contained inhibitors.
