Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are
common in children, especially during their first year. About 8 out of 100
girls and about 2 out of 100 boys will have a UTI as a child.1
UTIs are more common in boys who are not
circumcised than in
circumcised boys. During the first year of life, boys
are at higher risk for UTIs than girls. After the first year, UTIs become more
common in girls than in boys. This trend continues throughout childhood and
most of adulthood.
Infants and young children often get another
UTI in the months after their first one. Recurrent infections usually happen
within the same year as the first UTI.

Good Afternoon Sue
You know the more she copes with the initial stresses she feels just now, the more she will breeze through later. Have you heard anything then of the Nadal press conference? I gather Murray is in Barcelona as well albeit only to practice and not competing. Maybe Nadal will be saving himself for the Italian Open and Madrid. I guess the most important thing for him at the moment is that he dosent over play early season. You wont believe this but we have had some snow and hailstones this afternoon!!!!!

From what I know of the cost of nuvigil, paying out of pocket for it would be as expensive as the COBRA. The focalin, I think I can help you out. My doctor gave me a coupon that made my first year of focalin XR free. Apparently the pharmaceutical reps give them out. So I would try to get my hands on one of those.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 05:37 PM
Have you tried going to http://www.hrsa.gov/...re/index.html? From the site, it says you may be eligible for Hill-Burton reduced-cost care if your income is as much as two times (triple for nursing home care) the HHS Poverty Guidelines. Here's the link to find out more/apply for Hill-Burton reduced-cost care http://www.hrsa.gov/...on/index.html. You may also want to check out this site to see if there are http://findahealthce...Search_HCC.aspx HRSA Health Centers near you...you pay based on what you can afford. And with implementation of the Affordable Care Act, you should have more options starting in 2014 (with state health insurance exchanges having open enrollment beginning this October...which I know doesn't help you right now). Check out http://www.healthcar...oyed/index.html for more info (I liked to the self-employed section, though you may want to hunt around in case that status changes).
Also, have you checked out the Partnership for Prescription Assistance at http://www.pparx.org/en? I can't get you more specific information since you have to enter some details about where you live and the medications you take, but it could be worth checking out.

Posted 16 February 2013 - 12:28 AM
Nuvigil has a prescription discount/co-pay card they give out. I got one from my doctor, when I got my first prescription. If the doctor who gave you the prescription doesn't have them, you should be able to get one online at http://www.nuvigil.c...UVIGILFree.aspx.

All of these glimpse these people as individuals in a world of their own creation, surrounded by things chosen from their own houses."

WNWT Day 11
Woke up to 33 degrees and sunny in New Braunfels on Thursday. Pieced together breakfast from the hotel spread. Snugged up the chain on the Triumph a bit. It was warming up quickly so I tempted fate and packed away my jacket liner and heavy gloves. Yeah, I'm crazy.
Rode up through Gruene. All you non-Texans, how do you reckon it's pronounced? My understanding is you pronounce it "green". I had guessed about 11 other variations, and none of them were "green". Gruene is a neat old town built on a bluff looking over the Gruene river. They had a riverside grill I would have checked out if it had been closer to lunchtime. This is their 'landmark' building. It's the oldest continuously run dancehall in Texas. Willie Nelson, George Strait, and many others have played here.
My destination for the day was Port Aransas. As I looked at the map, I saw I could make it an "Independence" ride and go through a couple of significant sites... Gonzales and Goliad. First stop was Seguin though. Named after Juan Seguin, he was probably the last guy to leave the Alamo as he rode off to try and get reinforcements. He went on to fight in several other battles, became a senator, etc. He's buried in Seguin. I stopped and saw the tomb, which is on a hillside next to the fairgrounds. I guess any day is a good day for rodeo...
As I rode toward Gonzales, I went through the 3 house town of Belmont and noticed an unusual amount of cars at the Belmont Social Club. That's a good sign. Hmm. I could eat.
This is the forensic evidence of one of the best bbq sandwiches I've had. She asked if I wanted the brisket sliced or chopped. I said chopped, which in the end, made the sandwich really close to a Sloppy Joe type consistency. Dang it was good.
Gonzales is recognized as the first "battle" of the Texas War for Independence. The Mexican army came to take a cannon they had given the town for protection against indians and the towns people wouldn't give it back. They whipped up a snazzy flag for the confrontation, ended up firing the cannon at the Mexican troops (possibly by accident), wounded one Mexican soldier, and then the Mexicans retreated. So Texas won the first battle.
Goliad on the other hand is the site of the "Goliad Massacre". A group of Texans fought nearby and had to surrender, they were marched back to Goliad as POWs. They were being taken care of when word came down from the Mexican general to execute them all. About 300 of them were marched out and executed. I really didn't have any stops planned for Goliad per se. I rode through town and crossed the San Antonio river where I briefly considered whether a loogey hawked along the river walk in San Antonio would have beat me to this spot or not. Not that I did...
Then sweet baby jesus I came up more historical importance.
Presidio La Bahia. It's actually a fort and not a mission, although it has this church for the soldiers stationed here. This location was one of the most fought over forts through several wars. Luckily though, it's still in really good condition and was never turned into a warehouse or a Walgreens for awhile. The Catholic Church has always owned. All the walls and the buildings are there. Very cool to walk around this place...
Keeping watch over my Triumph in the parking lot:
Monument to the massacred soldiers
The ride had been rolling hills with sweeping curves, but shortly after Goliad, I saw the speed limit sign go to 75mph so guessed the terrain was about to get flat and the road straight. Good guess on my part. The 800 has a super-sweet spot right at 81 on the speedo which is about 77-78 on my GPS. Rev Theory's song "Hell Yeah" came up in my playlist, sun was warm and shining and it was a great run on into Port Aransas.
Port Aransas, or "Port A" as the locals call it is a neat town on the north end of the Padre barrier island. I didn't realize it, but to get to Port A you have to take a ferry. It was a slick set up though. Free of charge and you just pulled up just like you're at a stoplight, next thing you know, you're on the ferry and headed across the channel. I don't think I've been on a ferry on the bike before and it was a bit of a weird feeling having the boat move while you mentally thought you were sitting still.
Ferry headed back to the mainland and the pilot house:
Port A reminds me of most beach type towns... like a smaller Daytona Beach. Took a short ride up the beach as the sun was setting behind me.
You can park and spend the night on the beach free for 3 nights a month and there were several RV's parked right off the side of the beach road. Pretty cool. Later on a heard a guy telling how he's figured out how to stay out there pretty much all the time and lives on $10,000 a year but didn't get all the details... "I live in a van... down on the beach..."
It's been dry in Texas and apparently land sharks are becoming a real problem...
Found an ok place to stay and went for food at a seafood place called Castaways since it seemed to have the most cars in the lot. Well, I think it's the early bird specials pulling in the customers. Lots of snowbirds down here. And when I say snowbird, that means oldsters. Food was just ok. Walked out and heard some live music coming from the "Tarpon Ice House" across the street so walked over there for a beer. The band was the "Free Beer Band". Ingenious name. Noticed it on the sign as I left later... you mentally read it as "Free Beer, Band".
Nice day of relaxing riding. Started to get some bugs splattering on the windshield and passed guys mowing the ditches (been a while since I smelled cut grass)... I do believe I've escaped winter. One more days ride and I'll seal the deal.

Name an occupation that requires a cheerful temperament and also plenty of walking around and you'll probably believe, "Nurse". These individuals are a part of the one career selection that needs extensive walking and cheerfulness. Compression socks for nurses will be the perfect method to offer your body some very much needed TLC.
Doctors have used compression socks for their patients for many years. If a patient who runs problems that are developed with their lower legs, the physician would instantaneously prescribe them this kind of sock. They were popular in hospitals for patients who have been confined to the bed. Compression socks for nurses enable nurses to feel the comfort that they deserve and the best part about it's the fact that you don't need the doctors that you simply work for to prescribe them. You merely must decide which you have suffered enough with all the pain of non stop walking.
It doesn't matter if you are a man or woman. Perhaps you are a runner or an outside lover that is active. These socks are ideal regardless of what you would like to pay your day doing for you. No one compression sock is better than another. Their job would be to just make your own life easier so that you'll be able to do that which you want to do the most. They work by helping to ensure that pain is not any longer something that you must just deal with during your long days veins and your heart continue with your active lifestyle.
That is normal and may take some getting used to, but it will greatly help you throughout your day. This simply helps to ensure that you feel less pain throughout the times that are lively because your muscles will not be passing up the oxygen that the need urgently.
Think about gravity. If you are a nurse who is not wearing compression socks for nurses, gravity will take over. Your heart pumps blood that is full of oxygen out. This blood goes the length of the body and deposits oxygen to your own muscles. Once spent, the blood returns to the heart for oxygen that was more valuable. Your veins stop returning spent blood to the heart efficiently as you stand during the day. Veins and the muscles get tired and then you are going to grow pain and muscle fatigue. This is bad for the body and pain will follow.
Wouldn't you like to have the ability to get off work and be able to do something else that you love doing? That is what compression socks for nurses can do for you. Nurses gently use compression against the muscles and veins to keep blood and use your natural movements to encourage it to occur more effectively so you can continue after the day is done, to walk with ease. Can you imagine being pain free for that much time?
Do you want socks which are not the same as many other nurse's socks? Compression socks for nurses can be found in a variety of colors as well as styles. You can choose from tights, a sleeve, or real socks. You will find patterns and bold colours, or black and white. No one pair is not worse than any other. You only reach select on the ones you prefer. Then you only need to take the ones you like home and slip them on the very next morning. Are your feet prepared?
Ill patients like to visit a nurse that's happy about being there and grinning. Have you been supplying this for your patients do you need the help that only compression socks for nurses can provide for you or come the ending of your shift now? They understand if you are in pain and they may feel awful for requesting you to help them through their pain. Why not make yourself and them feel a bit better so that all people can discover a fresh solution to grin through the entire day? They will like it.

With the St. Louis Rams driving, down 17-14 with under a minute left in their game against the Dolphins Sam Bradford connected with Brandon Gibson for an incredibly clutch one-handed grab. Gibson somehow hung onto the ball and stayed in bounds to complete the best catch we have seen in quite sometime. Gibson's catch allowed the Rams to continue their drive and set up their rookie kicker with a chance to win the game, even if it was from 65-yards away. Article found on: Cosby Sweaters

Article: Diagnosis of gnathostomiasis by skin testing using partially purified specific antigen and total IgE levels.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A finding of antibodies to Gnathostoma spinigerum 24-kDa antigen by immunoblot analysis is currently used to confirm a diagnosis of gnathostomiasis. A simple skin test for the diagnosis of gnathostomiasis was developed, and the results were evaluated and compared with the standard Western blot (WB) test. This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Hospital for Tropical Diseases, Bangkok, Thailand, in 2008-2011. All eligible patients were tested with partially purified proteins of mAb-detected fractions pooled and sterilized by 0.2 μm diameter syringe filter, with a phenol saline solution of 1:10 w/v. A total of 69 cases, 39 gnathostomiasis cases and 30 controls, were enrolled into the study; the median age (IQR) was 40 (30.5-52.5) years. The most common presenting symptom was edema (56/69, 81%). Gnathostomiasis cases having strong cutaneous reactions to the intradermal test (81%) were also positive by immunoblot. A significant correlation between skin and immunoblot tests was detected (p<0.001). The difference in total IgE levels between cases and controls was not statistically significant (p=0.51). Logistic regression models showed that positive WB and skin-test results were significantly associated with gnathostomiasis (p=0.001 and p=0.007, respectively). Gnathostoma skin testing, using prepared fractionated antigen solution of Gnathostoma spinigerum, yields good reactivity and significantly correlates with the results of immunoblot testing.Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene 02/2014; 108(2):71-6.

Article: Non-encapsulated Trichinella spp., T. papuae, diminishes severity of DSS-induced colitis in mice.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Helminths use various mechanisms to avoid host immunity and protect themselves from being eliminated. Despite evading host immune responses, immunosuppression and regulation mechanisms elicit functions that diminish the adverse effects of unrelated inflammatory diseases. We investigated whether helminthic infections can ameliorate inflammatory diseases. Methods: Mice were infected with Trichinella papuae and then subjected to induced colitis through the oral administration of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). Macroscopic and microscopic examinations measured weight loss, stool consistency, gross bleeding, colon length, and tissue inflammation. In addition, cytokine expression was observed in colon tissue by SYBR real-time RT-PCR to investigate the Th1, Th2, and regulatory cytokines. The results showed that T. papuae infection decreased the severity of DSS-inducedcolitis, including weight loss, bloody diarrhea, shortening of colon, and colon tissue damage in mice (p <0.05). The expression level of IL-4 was high in the colons of DSS-treated mice without helminthic infection, while infected mice with DSS treatment had lower IL-4 levels (p <0.05). Uninfected DSS-treated mice failed to produce IL-10 mRNA in colon tissue, which may cause more severe colitis. In contrast, prior T. papuae infection DSS-treated mice had IL-10 levels in the colon significant lower than the normal and infected control groups. Our data provide the evidence that prior T. papuae infection can ameliorate DSS-induced colitis in mice and may be considered for a novel therapeutic strategy against immunological diseases in the future.Asian Pacific journal of allergy and immunology / launched by the Allergy and Immunology Society of Thailand 06/2013; 31(2):106-14.

Article: Genetic Diversity of Taenia asiatica from Thailand and Other Geographical Locations as Revealed by Cytochrome c Oxidase Subunit 1 Sequences[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Twelve 924 bp cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 () mitochondrial DNA sequences from isolates from Thailand were aligned and compared with multiple sequence isolates from Thailand and 6 other countries from the GenBank database. The genetic divergence of was also compared with database sequences from 6 different countries in Asia, including Thailand, and 3 countries from other continents. The results showed that there were minor genetic variations within species, while high intraspecies variation was found in . There were only 2 haplotypes and 1 polymorphic site found in , but 8 haplotypes and 9 polymorphic sites in . Haplotype diversity was very low, 0.067, in and high, 0.700, in . The very low genetic diversity suggested that may be at a risk due to the loss of potential adaptive alleles, resulting in reduced viability and decreased responses to environmental changes, which may endanger the species.The Korean Journal of Parasitology 02/2013; 51(1):55-9.

Article: Prevalence and clinical aspects of human Trichostrongylus colubriformis infection in Lao PDR[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: There have been few studies on human trichostrongyliasis in Southeast Asia, information on its clinical manifestations is also sparse. Trichostrongyliasis occurs predominantly in areas where poor hygiene is common especially where human/animal faeces are used as a fertilizer, thereby contaminating vegetables and stream water. The intimate coexistence of domestic animals and humans explains the prevalence of Trichostrongylus infection in such areas. The goal of the current study was to determine the prevalence of trichostrongyliasis among villagers in Thakamrien Village, Sonkon District, Savannakhet Province, Laos, and to investigate potential relationships between clinical features, laboratory data, and severity of infection. Of 272 villagers examined, 160 (58.8%) were determined positive for helminthic infections by faecal examination, and 59 (36.9%) of these were infected with Trichostrongylus. Only 58 cases were in the inclusion criteria of the study and then underwent further assessment, including a questionnaire on personal behaviors, physical examination, and laboratory tests. Villagers in the trichostrongyliasis group were more likely than the control group to have consumed fresh vegetables, not washed their hands before meals or after using the toilet, and to have had close contact with herbivorous animals (goats and cows). Similarly, villagers in the trichostrongyliasis group were more likely than the control group to have a history of loose faeces, rash, or abdominal pain; however, no obvious clinical symptoms were observed during physical examination of the trichostrongyliasis patients. The degree of infection was determined by both faecal egg counts and quantification of adult worms after deworming. Laboratory data were evaluated for any relationship with severity of infection. No significant differences were found in laboratory values between the trichostrongyliasis and control groups, with most values being within normal limits; however, both groups had high eosinophil counts. This study demonstrated that the useful clinical characteristics of trichostrongyliasis patients include history of loose faeces, rashes, and abdominal pain, as well as in personal behaviors, such as the regular consumption of fresh vegetables, lack of hand washing, and close contact with cattle.Acta tropica 01/2013; 126(1).

Article: Evaluation of recombinant serine protease inhibitor from Trichinella spiralis for immunodiagnosis of swine trichinosis.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Serine protease inhibitors, known as serpins, are mainly expressed in newborn and early-stage Trichinella spiralis larvae, suggesting that T. spiralis serpin (TsSERP) could be used as antigen for the immunodiagnosis of swine trichinosis. We produced His-tagged recombinant TsSERP (rTsSERP) in Escherichia coli and purified it using a Co(2+)-affinity column. Western blot (WB) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were performed to determine T. spiralis-infected swine sera samples (n = 5), negative controls (n = 26), and other parasite-infected samples (n = 83). WB showed that T. spiralis-infected sera initially reacted with rTsSERP at day 6 post-infection (dpi), and more strongly in late infection (62 and 84 dpi). However, other parasite-infected sera also elicited cross-reactivity to rTsSERP. On the other hand, indirect ELISA showed that TsSERP was an appropriate antigen for detecting late (> 60 dpi) but not early infection. No cross-reaction was observed with other parasite-infected sera. Sensitivity and specificity of TsSERP-ELISA at 62 dpi was 80% and 100%, respectively, and at 84 dpi 100% and 100%, respectively. These preliminary results show that TsSERP-ELISA method is suitable for the diagnosis of swine trichinosis, and could become the standard test for diagnosis of trichinosis in several hosts, including humans.The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health 09/2012; 43(5):1094-104. · 0.55 Impact Factor
Article: Degradation of human matrix metalloprotease-9 by secretory metalloproteases of Angiostrongylus cantonensis infective stage.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection is the major cause of eosinophilic meningitis. Successful migration and evasion of the immune system by infective-stage larvae (L3) rely heavily on secreted proteases, which activate human pro-matrix metalloprotease (MMP-9) into active MMP-9. This study showed that the proteases in excretory-secretory (ES) products of A. cantonensis third stage larvae degraded recombinant and native human proMMP-9 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Protease inhibitory assays showed that metalloproteases were the key enzymes involved in the degradation of human proMMP-9. To assess the effects of ES products on inflammation, ES products were incubated with THP-1 human monocytic cells, which showed induction of MMP-2 and not MMP-9 production. These results indicated that degradation of human MMP-9 was due to metalloproteases present in ES of A. cantonensis L3, which may be involved in suppressing the host's immune response to allow parasite migration to the host central nervous system.The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health 09/2012; 43(5):1105-13. · 0.55 Impact Factor
Article: Population structure of Angiostrongylus cantonensis (Nematoda: Metastrongylidae) in Thailand based on PCR-RAPD markers.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Angiostrongylus cantonensis is the causative agent of angiostrongyliasis, which is widely distributed throughout the world. It can specifically infect many species of intermediate and definitive hosts. This study examined the genetic differentiation and population structure using the RAPD-PCR method of parasites obtained from 8 different geographical areas of Thailand. Based on 8 primers, high levels of genetic diversity and low levels of gene flow among populations were found. Using genetic distance and neighbor-joining dendrogram methods, A. cantonensis in Thailand could be divided into two groups with statistically significant genetic differentiation of the two populations. However, genotypic variations and haplotype relationships need to be further elucidated using other markers.The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health 05/2012; 43(3):567-73. · 0.55 Impact Factor
Article: Discovery of Opisthorchis lobatus (Trematoda: Opisthorchiidae): a new record of small liver flukes in the Greater Mekong Sub-region.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Metacercariae, morphologically similar to those of small liver flukes, were found to parasitize red-tailed snakehead fish, Channa limbata, collected from the city of Vientiane, Lao People's Democratic Republic. Adult worms that were recovered from experimentally-infected hamsters showed characteristics distinctly different from Opisthorchis viverrini, but closely similar to Opisthorchis lobatus, which was first reported in poultry (Anas sp.) from Pakistan. The present study aimed to redescribe O. lobatus based on the adult worms recovered from experimentally-infected hamsters. Additionally, it aimed to document the genetic relationships among O. lobatus and other opisthorchiid liver flukes using the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) gene and the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region. DNA alignment of the O. lobatus and O. viverrini COI partial sequences (330 bp) showed 3.03% fixed differences (2.72% of amino acids changed) while the ITS2 region (350 bp) indicated a 0.86% difference for nucleotides. Species boundaries between the 2 parasites were determined by neighbor-joining analysis using the molecular sequence data. The phenogram confirmed that O. lobatus was distinctly different from O. viverrini, representing the first reported instance of O. lobatus in the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS) and the first record of C. limbata as the second intermediate host of a small liver fluke. Questions regarding human infection and the extent of the geographic distribution of these species should be investigated further.Journal of Parasitology 06/2011; 97(6):1152-8.

ABSTRACT: In Lahanam Village, Savannakhet Province, Laos, 125 of 253 villagers (49.4%) were found by fecal examination to harbor hookworm eggs. The eggs were heterogeneous in morphology and size, suggesting infections of mixed nematode species. To confirm the hookworm egg species, on a voluntary basis, 46 hookworm egg-positive participants were treated with albendazole, and post-treatment adult worms were collected from purged fecal samples. The common human hookworm was found in only 3 participants; 1 case of Necator americanus, and 2 cases of Ancylostoma duodenale. In contrast, adult Trichostrongylus worms were expelled from most participants (43 of 46, 93.5%). The Trichostrongylus species were confirmed by morphology and internal transcribed spacer 2 sequences; all worms were of the same species (T. colubriformis). In addition, some Trichostrongylus worms were obtained from a goat in the same village and identified as T. colubriformis. The results suggested that T. colubriformis was the main zoonotic species causing hookworm infections in the village.The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene 01/2011; 84(1):52-4.

ABSTRACT: While human gnathostomiasis cases have been reported sporadically in Lao PDR since 1975, little is known about the disease in this country. We aimed to investigate sero-prevalence of gnathostomiasis and Gnathostoma species in Lao PDR. One village each in the north, central and south regions of Lao PDR was selected as the study sites. Overall, 125 (29.8%) of 420 sera from the randomly selected participants were sero-positive by immunoblot technique, with anti-Gnathostoma IgG antibody against the 24 kDa fraction. The sero-prevalence was high in the central (47.1%) and south (38.6%), but low (3.6%) in the north. Risk factor analyses revealed that the consumption of raw/undercooked fish was significantly associated with Gnathostoma sero-positivity (95% CI 1.05-17.05, P=0.042). The sero-positivity significantly increased with the age of the participants. Several fish, swamp eels, and frogs collected from central and southern Lao were infected with G. spinigerum advanced 3rd-stage larvae. Channa limbata (red-tailed snakehead fish) was identified as a natural second intermediate host of G. spinigerum. Eggs of G. spinigerum were found in dog feces collected in the south. Gnathostomiasis is endemic in central and southern Laos, so that preventive measures should be introduced for people living in these regions.Parasitology International 12/2010; 59(4):599-605.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to clarify the clinical features of Haplorchis taichui infection in humans in Nan Province, Thailand, and to correlate the clinical features with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)-like symptoms. In this study area, only H. taichui, but neither other minute intestinal flukes nor small liver flukes were endemic. The degree of infection was determined by fecal egg counts and also by collecting adult worms after deworming. The signs and symptoms of individual patients together with their hematological and biochemical laboratory data were gathered to evaluate the relationship between the clinical features and the severity of infection. Special emphasis was made to elucidate the possible similarities of the clinical features of H. taichui infection and IBS-like symptoms. The results showed useful clinical information and the significant (> 50%) proportion of haplorchiasis patients complained of abdominal pain, lassitude, and flatulence, which were the important diagnostic symptoms of IBS. This study has reported a possible link between H. taichui and IBS, and H. taichui might probably play a role in the etiology of these IBS-like symptoms.The Korean Journal of Parasitology 09/2010; 48(3):225-9.

Article: Esophageal deformation of Gnathostoma spinigerum in ivermectin-treated rats, and anthelminthic efficacy[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Ivermectin 2 mg/kg single dose reduced worm load by 83.3 % (75.0 – 91.7 %) for rats experimentally infected with 20 Gnathostoma spinigerum advanced third-stage larvae administered at week 1, with sacrifice at week 15 post-infection. Some larvae recovered from the muscles of treated rats were found to be grossly deformed in appearance. Morphological changes in the Gnathostoma larvae were clearly observed. The internal structures of the deformed larvae showed significant degeneration in the esophageal glandular tissues. The esophageal lumen branched irregularly and occupied a wider area in the center of the esophagus. The epithelial cells thickened along these branches. The esophageal gland ducts were completely destroyed. The excretory ability of the esophageal cell glands may be depressed, causing loss of function. It is suggested that ivermectin is effective against Gnathostoma larvae due to worm recovery reductions. The drug efficacy appears to generate by esophageal destruction of the worms.

ABSTRACT: A human trichinellosis outbreak caused by Trichinella papuae occurred in the Uthai Thani Province of Thailand in September 2007. A total of 34 villagers suffering at least one of the symptoms suggestive of trichinellosis, or those who were asymptomatic but had a history of ingesting raw wild pig meat, were enrolled in the study. Twenty-two villagers had ingested undercooked pork from a hunted wild pig (Sus scrofa). One patient with a severe clinical picture was hospitalised and more than 80 non-encapsulated larvae were detected in the muscle biopsy. The larvae were identified as T. papuae by molecular analyses of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and the expansion segment 5 (ES5) of the large subunit rRNA. Of the 34 suspected cases, 27 agreed to be subjected to haematological and serological tests. Immunoblot analysis using crude antigens from T. spiralis muscle larvae revealed anti-Trichinella IgG in 20 of the 26 serum samples (1 serum sample could not be analysed). All infected people were successfully treated with mebendazole; the one patient with severe symptomatology was treated successfully with prednisolone.Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene 06/2010; 104(6):433-7.

Article: Monophyly of Opisthorchis viverrini populations in the lower Mekong Basin, using mitochondrial DNA nad1 gene as the marker[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The liver fluke, Opisthorchis viverrini, causes serious public-health problems in the Lower Mekong Basin. This study aimed to clarify whether O. viverrini populations may be genetically divided into sub-specific taxa. We collected 6 populations of O. viverrini from different places in Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Thailand, along both sides of the Mekong River, and analyzed the population structure of these using the mitochondrial nad1 gene as a marker. The results of the DNA polymorphism measurements, by theta-w (thetaw) and -pi (thetapi) values, neutrality tests, and mismatch distribution, suggested that the population of O. viverrini has expanded under the influence of purifying selection and selective sweep. The analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) test revealed no significant genetic differences among the O. viverrini populations on opposite sides of the Mekong River. O. viverrini haplotypes occurred in multiple populations, and no distinct geographical clade. The star-like haplotype network confirmed a demographic expansion of the O. viverrini population. Overall, the genetic data from these populations suggested that the postulated existence of an O. viverrini species complex should be rejected. The bio-geographical diversity of O. viverrini populations should be explored further, using other appropriate markers and a wider range of samples from geographically different areas.Parasitology International 02/2010; 59(2):242-7.

Article: Pila ampullacea and Pomacea canaliculata, as new paratenic hosts of Gnathostoma spinigerum.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Aquatic snails, Pila ampullacea and Pomacea canaliculata were experimentally found to be suitable paratenic hosts for advanced third-stage larvae (L3) of the nematode Gnathostoma spinigerum, the causative parasite of gnathostomiasis in humans. G. spinigerum (L3) were found to be encapsulated in the tissue of the snail's foot and its internal organs. The infection, intensity and survival of third-stage larvae of G. spinigerum in both species of aquatic snails are described. This is the first evidence to reveal that not only vertebrates but also invertebrates (snails) can serve as paratenic hosts to this parasite. Aquatic snails are one of several sources of human gnathostomiasis in Thailand.The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health 04/2009; 40(2):243-6. · 0.55 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: A 54-year-old male Thai patient from Prachin Buri Province presented with a history of chronic watery diarrhea for many years. He passed stool five to ten times per day with occasionally colicky pain, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting. He had visited hospitals and private clinics and received treatment but with no improvement. He presented to the Hospital for Tropical Diseases, Bangkok, Thailand, where on physical examination, he had moderate dehydration, weakness, abdominal distension and a gurgling abdomen. The eggs, larvae and adult worms of Capillaria philippinensis were found on stool examination. The patient was admitted and treated with Mebendazole for 20 days, whereupon his symptoms resolved. Two months previously, he had ingested a raw small fresh-water fish dish called "Phra-Pla Siw/Soi". Small fresh-water fish near the patient's home were collected and examined for Capillaria philippinensis larva. The results were negative for parasitic organisms.The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health 12/2008; 39(6):1000-4. · 0.55 Impact Factor
Article: School-based health education for the control of soil-transmitted helminthiases in Kanchanaburi province, Thailand[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Soil-transmitted helminthiases are major parasitic diseases that cause health problems world-wide. School-based health education is one of several basic interventions currently recommended by the World Health Organization for the control of these infections. A 3-year programme of health education for the control of soil-transmitted helminths (STH) has recently been completed in four primary schools in the Hauykayeng subdistrict of Thong Pha Phum district, in the Kanchanaburi province of Thailand. Overall, the percentage of the schoolchildren found infected with STH increased between the start of year 1 of the intervention (16.6%) and the end of year 2 (23.8%) but showed signs of falling by the end of year 3 (19.4%). Although none of these year-on-year changes in overall prevalence was statistically significant, some significant trends were detected when the six school grades (i.e. age-groups) were considered separately. The grade showing the highest prevalence of STH infection changed, from grade 6 (representing the oldest children investigated) at the start of year 1 (when grade-1 children were excluded from the survey) to grade 1 (representing the youngest children) at the ends of year 2 and year 3. By the end of year 3, the children in grades 5 and 6 had significantly lower prevalences of infection than the grade-1 subjects. The prevalence of STH infection in the grade-1 children was significantly higher than that in any of the older grades at the end of year 2 and significantly higher than that in grades 3-6 at the end of year 3. These results indicate that the health education had a greater impact on the children in the higher grades (who, presumably had better levels of understanding and practised better, personal, infection prevention) than on the younger children. Although school-based interventions can serve as a useful entry point for parasite control, more effort, including anthelminthic treatment, may be required among the youngest children. The activities need to be sustainable and supported by appropriate school-health policies.Annals of Tropical Medicine and Parasitology 10/2008; 102(6):521-8.

ABSTRACT: We confirmed sympatric occurrence of Taenia solium, T. saginata, and T. asiatica in western Thailand. DNA analysis of morphologically identified T. saginata, in a dual infection with T. solium, indicated it was T. asiatica. To our knowledge, this report is the first of T. asiatica and a dual Taenia infection from Thailand.Emerging infectious diseases 10/2007; 13(9):1413-6. DOI:10.3201/eid1309.061148 · 7.33 Impact Factor

iHerb Customer Reviews
I mix flax seed oil, wheat germ oil, cod liver oil and olive oil for a healthy, balanced way of getting Omega fatty acids in our diet and our pets diets. Healthy oils are cold pressed which of course these are. Supplement your pets diets with these oils, minced garlic and rosemary for beautiful skin and coats.
We have tried other "flavors" and come back to this. The price is great. It is simple and unadulterated. The flavored ones end up having a fishy aftertaste which defeats the purpose in my opinion. Might as well just take it and expect it to taste a tad fishy since it comes from a fish! Mixing it into orange juice is nice too.

The history of interpretation of Adam from Genesis to the 1st Century reveals a bold and astonishing diversity in which the authors made of Adam what they needed of Adam.
When we make distinctions between natural and supernatural activity in Scripture, not only do we push our modern categories into the Bible, but we also limit God's action.
In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
From 2012: Many secular and many evangelical voices agree on one 'truism'—that if you are an orthodox Christian with a high view of the authority of the Bible, you cannot believe in evolution in any form at all. New Atheist authors such as Richard Dawkins and creationist writers such as Ken Ham seem to have arrived at consensus on this.
The biggest science stories of the week are reviewed.
Some of the Christian objections to evolutionary creation come from a misunderstanding of what the Bible means when it says "God created".
When we sit down to read sacred Scripture, we need to develop a rapport with the Bible's various authors and their worldviews. Otherwise, we will unintentionally demand they communicate in the same manner we do.
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
All of you who do science, all of you who teach or research or you're involved in engineering or medicine or education, or biology or chemistry or physics—you are doing a noble thing. You are thinking God's thoughts after him. … You are obeying God's command given way back in Genesis to exercise dominion, to learn about, to be curious and discover and steward the earth.
The Psalmist is saying that when we walk outside and look up, the heavens are telling us two things about God: they tell us about his glory, and they tell us about what his hands can do.
"Such a paradigm will enable joyful Christ-followers to be wholly engaged in being the presence of hope in our glorious—yet broken—world."
It's eminently easy "in God's name" to demand things of people as a pre-requirement for acceptance by God—things which Christ himself never demanded.

During his seminary education, Dr. Murphy also gained a deeper understanding of Luther's theology of the cross, and he realized that it's really the best way to approach the science and theology dialogue.
In this talk, originally delivered at the BioLogos President's Circle meeting in October 2012, Dr. John Walton discusses the origin stories of Genesis 1-3, and why their focus on function and archetypes mean there is no Biblical narrative of material origins.
Since the sermon is the main component used to build the congregation's collective approach to understanding how the church relates to the world, I want to take a few moments to lay out what has worked in my preaching and what has not when it comes to science, and more specifically, the subject of evolution.
The six-part series by Dr. Keller considers three main clusters of questions lay people raise with their pastors when introduced to the teaching that biological evolution and biblical orthodoxy can be compatible. As a pastor and evangelist, Keller takes these concerns seriously and offers suggestions for addressing them without requiring believers to adopt a particular view or accept a definitive answer.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Friday, 11 February 2011 09:50AM
The app, created by Saint, allows users to create a film involving the Innocent smoothie superhero character from the TV ads, and upload it to Innocent's YouTube channel through Facebook and Twitter.
Users can record action against a background of their choice, tilting the smoothie bottle into different postures by moving their iPhone, or changing the direction of the action by tapping the phone.
The app supports the £2.7m integrated campaign, created by Swarm@RKCR/Y&R, sister agency of RKCR/Y&R.
Adam Graham, managing partner at Saint, said: "This is one of many fresh mobile apps coming out of Saint right now – demonstrating our increasing focus on location and social media this year."
Saint recently created an online 'Snack Invaders' game for Innocent, based on the old computer game Space Invaders. Players use their computer keyboards to navigate the Innocent superhero character around unhealthy snacks, such as cake and doughnuts, and then destroy them.

It's ok..
The strikeout one is too hard do u think u could take out the thing where u jump on platforms and those things come around and knock u off just replace it with something else and on the one where u jump thru those red things make the second one the same as the first. I think these changes would make wipeout a lot more fun! I love this app otherwise but if u did that it would make this game awesome! And I think I speak for everyone when I say that.
Good luck,
Icey dragon
I love this game it is so fun and the controls are easy to use and learn
And it's funny which is a plus !
Me and my sis played it on the way to Florida and it kept us entertained for almost half the way Lol
To parents with kids under 12, there is no reason to have this game be a +12!! I am 11 and It doesn't even have anything to make it 12+!!! Kay byyyeeee!
Fun; most of the time....
This game is fun but I already beat all of the levels, you need more levels, and also lately I've had a lot of glitches when I'm trying to beat the levels again. Please get a new update that doesn't say "new bug fixes" I want one that says "new levels available," please make that happen soon because Wipeout2 is not good at all.

You surprised me, Wolvie.
Didn't think you were a Lain fan. This is a little different than your usual pop-culture parodies.
A bit pretensious, but so is Lain. Good work.
(3d rendered Lain was a little strange, though, for the original cartoon Lain's features are so flat!)
...I originally thought this was about Lain's cute bear-pajamas she wears.
Congrats on the daily 4th!
Thank you very much!
Fucking sweet
One of the best bear movies on NG. Except maybe after the Swearbears movies. Well anyways I'm very impressed. Good work, man
Thank you buddy!
Nice Job
What program did you use to draw the bear, and make him 3d? Also I loved the shadows you used. Is there a secret to making shadows? I would really love to know how, please help me out. Once again nice job, and hope to see more.
Thanks! I used Carrara Studio 2.0. The shadows work like this:
1) set your light source and direction.
2) tell which items should cast shadows.
3) tell which items should be shadow cathers.
Hope that helps =]
that was some crazy awesome shit guy it was awesome it probly took u a hell of a long time though u should get payed to do stuff like that
Thanks! Getting paid for it, that would be a dream! =]
holy wow
That was really good!! Visually stunning! I loved the shadows, and the 3D landscapes...Very good job man. This must have taken a lot of work! Bravo!
It did take mucho work. Glad you liked it!
