Chronic pulmonary function impairment caused by initial and recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis following treatment

TL;DR: Tuberculosis can cause chronic impairment of lung function which increases incrementally with the number of episodes of tuberculosis and can be achieved by early detection and by reduction of the risk of tuberculosis through intervention on risk factors such as HIV, silica dust exposure, silicosis, and socioeconomic factors.

Gait Pattern in the Early Recovery Period after Stroke

TL;DR: The gait patterns of eighteen patients who had had a single infarct due to obstruction of the middle cerebral artery were evaluated within one week after the patients had resumed independent walking and before a gait rehabilitation program had been initiated.

Risk Factors for Lack of Detectable Antibody Following Hepatitis B Vaccination of Minnesota Health Care Workers

TL;DR: Certain populations of health care workers are at increased risk of not responding to hepatitis B vaccination, and immunogenicity of currently available recombinant hepatitis B vaccines in persons at high risk for primary vaccine failure is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic BLUP Decoded: A Look into the Black Box of Genomic Prediction

TL;DR: It is speculated that modeling polygenic effects via pedigree relationships jointly with genomic breeding values using Bayesian methods may prevent that decline in accuracy of GEBVs based on additive-genetic relationships, and genomic BLUP cannot capture short-range LD information well.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of cardiac performance with quantitative radionuclide angiocardiography: Right ventricular ejection fraction with reference to findings in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

TL;DR: A reproducible noninvasive technique for measuring righ ventricular ejection fraction was developed using first pass quantitative radionuclide angiocardiography, which was sensitive to changes in inotropic state induced with isoproterenol and was reproducible, with minimal inter- and intraobserver variability.
