Impact of introducing fluorescent microscopy on hospital tuberculosis control: A before-after study at a high caseload medical center in Taiwan by Hsin-Yun Sun (61134)

“…</p><p>Results</p><p>After switch to fluorescence microscopy, median non-isolated infectious duration decreased from 12.5 days to 3 days (P<0.001). Compared with conventional microscopy, fluorescence microscopy increased sputum smear detection rate by two-fold (for all patients: from 22.8% to 48.1%, P<0.001; for patients with cavitary lung lesion: from 43% to 82%, P = 0.029) and was associated with a 2-fold higher likelihood of prompt respiratory isolation (odds ratio mediated by the increase in sputum smear detection rate: 1.8, 95% CI 1.3–2.5). …”

Data_Sheet_1_An Upstream Open Reading Frame Represses Translation of Chicken PPARγ Transcript Variant 1.PDF by Yankai Chu (8503011)

“…Bioinformatics analysis showed that chicken PPARγ transcript 1 (PPARγ1) possessed an upstream open reading frame (uORF) in its 5′ UTR. Mutation analysis showed that a mutation in the uORF led to increased Renilla luciferase activity and PPARγ protein expression, but decreased Renilla luciferase and PPARγ1 mRNA expression. mRNA stability analysis using real-time RT-PCR showed that the uORF mutation did not interfere with mRNA stability, but promoter activity analysis of the cloned 5′ UTR showed that the uORF mutation reduced promoter activity. …”
