Background & Aims: The protection provided by rotavirus (RV) vaccines is highly heterogeneous among individuals.We hypothesized that microbiota composition might influence RV vaccine efficacy.Methods: First, we examined the potential of segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) colonization to influence RV vaccine efficacy in mice.Next, we probed th
Morbidity and mortality associated with Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum infection in a tertiary care kidney hospital
Malaria is a disease of tropical regions and both types of plasmodia, i.e.Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax, cause significant morbidity and mortality.P.vivax was thought to be benign and cause less morbidity and mortality.Many reports showed the devastating effect of vivax malaria too.We compared the clinical symptoms, laboratory markers,
Thermodynamic second law analysis of magneto-micropolar fluid flow past nonlinear porous media with non-uniform heat source
This study analyzes the second law of thermodynamic for entropy generation in an irreversible hydromagneto-micropolar flow system French Door Latch with non-homogenous heat generation.The non-symmetric microstructure fluid flow past a stretching sheet with saturated porous non-linear media under magnetic field influence.Ignoring the fluid particle
Lessons to be learned from the Nagorno-Karabah conflict
The new threats of modern Soap warfare compel the thinking and development of a credible air defense capability based on early warning systems, surface-to-air missiles, fighter aircraft and associated command and control systems.Ground-based air defence, largely neglected in the air campaigns that dominated the last years of military conflicts, whe
Grease film evolution in rolling elastohydrodynamic lubrication contacts
Abstract Although most rolling element bearings are grease lubricated, the underlying mechanisms of grease lubrication has not been fully explored.This study investigates grease film evolution with glass disc revolutions in rolling elastohydrodynamic lubrication Peizo Ignitor (EHL) contacts.The evolution patterns of the grease films were highly rel
