Biochemical, chemical, and nucleic acid analyses were carried out on some lactobacilli isolated from the vaginas of patients suffering from trichomoniasis. Phenotypically the strains resembled Lactobacillus fermentum and L. reuteri. Nucleic acid studies, however, showed that the vaginal strains were distinct from these and all other lactobacilli examined and therefore warrant a new species. The name Lactobacillus vaginalis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of L. vaginalis is NCTC 12197.

Abstract Gasification in supercritical water at pressures up to 30 MPa and temperatures around 600 °C is a very attractive method to use biomass with a high water content for energy production. Under these conditions hydrogen and carbon dioxide are formed as the main products. The reaction is significantly influenced by biomass ingredients. The effect of alkali salts is of special interest: the addition of alkali salts drastically increases the hydrogen yield, presumably as a consequence of the catalysis ...

The dynamics of a nonlinear and dispersive long surface capillary-gravity wave model equation is studied analytically in its short-wave limit. We exhibit its Lax pair and some non-trivial conserved quantities. Through a change of functions, an unexpected connection between this classical surface water-wave model and the sine-Gordon (or sinh-Gordon) equation is established. Numerical and analytical studies show that in spite of integrability their solutions can develop singularities and multivaluedness ...

We describe a new semi-automated method that measures aortic regurgitation (AR) on contrast aortography with the objectives of reducing the inter-observer variability and standardising image acquisition.Aortograms from three participating centres were reviewed to generate the following quality criteria: entire left ventricle and aortic root in view, descending aorta or TOE probe not over-projected, breath hold, no table motion, and adequate contrast opacification of the aortic root. AR was visually ...

Background Anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) due to Leishmania (L.) tropica infection is a chronic, frequently disfiguring skin disease with limited therapeutic options. In endemic countries healing of ulcerative lesions is often delayed by bacterial and/or fungal infections. Here, we studied a novel therapeutic concept to prevent superinfections, accelerate wound closure, and improve the cosmetic outcome of ACL. Methodology/Principal Findings From 2004 to 2008 we performed a two-armed, randomized, ...

The aim of this study was to identify variables associated with tissue fragment embolization during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Brain magnetic resonance imaging and transcranial Doppler studies have revealed that cerebrovascular embolization occurs frequently during TAVR. Embolized material may be r thrombotic, tissue derived, or catheter (foreign material) fragments. A total of 81 patients underwent TAVR with a dual filter–based embolic protection device (Montage Dual Filter System, ...

Patient- and procedure-related factors are known to be associated with aortic regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Nevertheless, this entity may also be caused by a specific device-host interaction due to the biomechanical properties of the valves, independently of clinical factors. We sought to elucidate the role of frame geometry in the occurrence of aortic regurgitation after Medtronic CoreValve and Edwards SAPIEN valve implantation. We conducted an observational study ...

The use of multi sources systems of energy progressed significantly in different industrial sectors. Between all the existing sources of energy, batteries and renewable sources, such as photovoltaic and wind, contain the highest specified energy. However, solar and wind energies are not available all the time, their performance is affected by unpredictable weather changes and therefore, it is difficult to control as it is not always feasible to obtain an accurate mathematical model of the controlled ...

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is increasingly used to treat patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at increased risk for surgical aortic valve replacement and is projected to be the preferred treatment modality. As patient selection and operator experience have improved, it is hypothesised that device-host interactions will play a more dominant role in outcome. This, in combination with the increasing number of valve types and sizes, confronts the physician with the dilemma to choose ...

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation has become an established procedure to treat severe aortic stenosis. Correct device sizing/positioning is crucial for optimal outcome. Lotus valve sizing is based upon multiple aortic root dimensions. Hence, it often occurs that two valve sizes can be selected. In this study, patient-specific computer simulation is adopted to evaluate the influence of Lotus size/position on paravalvular aortic regurgitation (AR) and conduction abnormalities, in patients with ...
