A prospective survey on 14 consecutive cases with tuberculous drug induced hepatitis was done at our chest clinic in a state general hospital over a period of 15 months. There were 30 controls chosen randomly from the chest clinic register. The cases had lower mean body mass index (P<0.008), serum albumin (P<0.005) and higher serum globulin

The environmental conditions of urban spaces in relation to comfort have been the prevailing issues in discussion of climate change and urban environment. However, there are very few researches conducted in relation to urban spaces in hot humid tropical climate. This topic has been studied by Noor Hanita (2000), where investigations were done to ev

Mixed-genotypes hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections are normally ignored in chronic hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of mixed-genotypes infections among hemodialysis patients in Pahang province, Malaysia. Reverse-transcription and polymerase chain reaction methods were performed using two different sets o

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C15H20N2O3S, the hydroxy group is involved in the formation of O-HN hydrogen bonds, which link two molecules into a centrosymmetric dimer. Weak C-HO hydrogen bonds further link these dimers into chains propagating along the a axis. The crystal packing exhibits - interactions between the five- and six-

The first theoretical model of DNA computing, called a splicing system, for the study of the generative power of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the presence of restriction enzymes and ligases was introduced by Head in 1987. Splicing systems model the recombinant behavior of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and the enzymes which perform operation of cutt

The aim of the study was to elucidate the full-length characteristics of HCV genome (genotype 3) in an acute HCV infection. Serum samples were obtained from an acute patient (MAL 43) and one confirmed chronic HCV infected patient (MAL 22). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was employed to amplify the conserve regions of 5’U
