Although studies from the 1990s, before the availability of ART, suggested substantially worse treatment outcomes for HIV co-infected MDR-TB patients compared to HIV-negative patients [24], our early findings provide hope that a strategy of integrating second-line TB therapy and ART will improve MDR-TB cure rates in HIV co-infected patients.
The city's endorsement of these policing tactics in view of the availability of alternatives suggests that the true agenda is not safety but dominance.
However, the findings that (1) some former heroin users switched their drug preference to a stimulant; and (2) subsequently attributed this change to the reduced availability of heroin, suggests that reducing the supply of one drug may serve to increase the use of others.
This is consistent with previous observations that the level of SNARE complexes can be controlled by the availability of Sec9p, suggesting that Sec9p is limiting for SNARE complex formation [37].
It is expected that the nematode standing stock at deep-sea seeps and vents is also depending on the availability of food, suggesting that the in situ chemosynthetic production may lead to elevated nematode densities and/or biomass compared to the adjacent phytodetritus fed sediments.
Alternatively the availability of sRAGE suggests a potential means of treating or preventing complications of diabetes.
The value of implementation analysis indicates health systems should be willing to invest substantial amounts, well beyond the cost of the drug itself, to ensure availability of cotrimoxazole, suggesting efforts to improve drug supply are likely to be of value.
Growth rates of both strains were only very mildly affected by changes in the availability of CuSO4, suggesting that copper toxicity or starvation is not achieved under these conditions.
An earlier publication highlighted that the minimal community reaction or pressure resulting from the changes to the availability of pesticides, suggesting a passive acceptance of policymaking (Pearson et al. 2009).
Some of these variables are potentially endogenous, others are time-invariant (e.g., the availability of hospitals), suggesting to apply a Hausman–Taylor framework for panel data in our application.
