| cefazolin vs moxalactam? a double-blind randomized trial of cephalosporins in head and neck surgery. | cefazolin and moxalactam were compared in a prospective randomized double-blind trial of 118 patients undergoing oncologic head and neck surgery. both antibiotics were given 2 g every four hours for four doses. five infections were encountered in the cefazolin group (8.5%) and two infections in the moxalactam group (3.4%); this difference was not statistically significant. this assessment does not indicate, however, that the two regimens are equally efficacious. | 2012 | 3510638 |

| third generation cephalosporin antibiotics in surgical practice. | the new third generation cephalosporins have a significantly greater spectrum of action against gram-negative bacteria likely to be encountered in surgical infections. this expanded spectrum may permit these drugs to be used in place of combination therapy in patients with polymicrobial infections; however, current evidence does not indicate superior results with these agents over earlier generation choices for surgical prophylaxis. the toxicity profile of these drugs warrants close monitoring f ... | 2012 | 3511763 |
| feasibility of same-day identification of members of the family vibrionaceae by the api 20e system. | sixty isolates, comprising nine species of the family vibrionaceae, were tested with the api 20e 5-h same-day procedure (analytab products, plainview, n.y.). included were 27 aeromonas hydrophila isolates, 10 aeromonas sobria isolates, 7 aeromonas caviae isolates, 3 plesiomonas shigelloides isolates, 3 vibrio alginolyticus isolates, 3 vibrio cholerae isolates, 1 vibrio fluvialis isolate, 5 vibrio parahaemolyticus isolates, and 1 vibrio vulnificus isolate. the 5-h profile numbers were specific fo ... | 1986 | 3517061 |
| [technic for digitalized angiography of the legs by unilateral femoral artery puncture and programmed displacement of the examination table. apropos of 56 cases]. | the authors describe a technique for digital subtraction angiography of vessels of the legs, performed in 56 patients for suspicion or control of peripheral vascular disease. owing to an unilateral femoral arterial puncture and a programmed moving of the table top, a subtraction arterial mapping of the two legs is obtained with only two injections of contrast medium. on the side of the puncture the arterial opacification is always very satisfactory. on the other side opacified by reflux the popl ... | 2012 | 3517309 |
| immunocytochemical localization of cathepsin b in rat kidney. ii. electron microscopic study using the protein a-gold technique. | thin sections of lowicryl k4m-embedded materials were labeled with protein a-gold complex. gold particles representing the antigen sites for cathepsin b were exclusively confined to lysosomes of each segment of the nephron. the heaviest labeling was noted in the lysosomes of the s1 segment of the proximal tubules. labeling intensity varied considerably with the individual lysosomes. lysosomes of the other tubular segments, such as the s2 and s3 segments of the proximal tubules, distal convoluted ... | 1986 | 3519753 |
| production of extracellular enzymes and cytotoxicity by vibrio vulnificus. | thirty-three strains of vibrio vulnificus of clinical and environmental origin were examined for production of 12 extracellular enzymes of potential importance to the virulence of this bacterium. strains of vibrio vulnificus were consistent in their production of protease, mucinase, lipase, chondroitinase, hyaluronidase, dnase, sulfatase, and hemolysin. no differences between clinical and environmental isolates were noted. although none of the enzymes appeared to correlate with the ability of th ... | 1986 | 3522090 |

| blood glucose control and diabetic complications. | two hypotheses have been advanced to explain the appearance of microvascular complications in diabetic patients with glycemic control. the genetic hypothesis suggests that the development of diabetic complications is genetically determined and independent of diabetic control, whereas the metabolic hypothesis suggests that long-term hyperglycemia causes the subsequent development of small-blood-vessel complications. we review data that either support or reject these hypotheses and suggest a third ... | 2012 | 3524339 |
| chitinase determinants of vibrio vulnificus: gene cloning and applications of a chitinase probe. | to initiate study of the genetic control of chitinolytic activity in vibrios, the chitobiase gene was isolated by cloning chromosomal dna prepared from vibrio vulnificus. chimeric plasmids were constructed from sau3a i partial digests of chromosomal dna by ligating 5 to 15-kilobase fragments into the bamhi site, i.e., in the tcr gene, of pbr322 (amr tcr). the resulting plasmids were transformed into escherichia coli dh1. chitobiase activity of the insert-bearing clones was detected by using a ch ... | 1986 | 3524459 |
| hemorrhagic bullae associated with vibrio vulnificus septicemia. report of two cases. | bullous lesions associated with vibrio vulnificus infection developed in two patients, both of whom had hepatic cirrhosis. one patient had a recent history of ingestion of raw oysters, while the other patient had recently exposed skin lacerations to sea water. both patients died within 24 hours of hospitalization, in spite of antibiotic treatment. vibrio vulnificus was isolated from blood and bullae in both patients. histologic examination of skin biopsy specimens revealed epidermal/dermal separ ... | 1986 | 3524472 |
