As given in Table 1, no factor associated with ESBL-imported carriage, except a history of peripheral arterial disease (p = 0.007), was observed in univariate analysis, in particular age (p = 0.8), SAPS II (p = 0.6), hospitalization during the past three months (p = 0.08), transfer from another unit (p = 0.8) and antibiotic exposure during the past three months (p = 0.5).
However, these vaccines are poorly immunogenic for serogroups C, W-135 and Y, do not elicit long-term protection in younger children, do not induce immune memory, do not reduce mucosal carriage (except for serogroup A), and do not confer herd protection [ 17- 20].
And on the train a girl cuts the curls on a doll and talks to it with the whimsical authority of a mother of the inanimate or the invisible, the way the woman I used to meet in the restroom in Penn Station was always fussing and baby talking into a carriage that, except for a few cans and some garbage, was empty.
Participants attending practices in less deprived locations had slightly higher bacterial carriage rates, except for P. aeruginosa, suggesting a possible negative relationship between deprivation score and bacterial carriage.
Association studies, where cases and controls are screened for genetic variants, usually present findings as multiplicative relative risks; that is, the risk for carriers divided by that for persons similar in every way except carriage of the variant.
On this day, Carriage House was empty, except for Mr. Ezrin; the general manager, Johnny Montagnese, and the studio's canine mascot, Toby.
4 1 The other day, travelling on the London Underground just after lunchtime, I suddenly realised that, except for me, the carriage was empty.

The heterozygous carriage was predominant (at least 50%), except for IL-4 −590 and IL-10 −1082.
Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are big attractions because they use the carriage roads, where motor vehicles are banned except for one link open to snowmobiles.
No significant difference was noted between the two groups except a higher proportion of MDR bacteria carriage and less frequent primary diagnosis of infection at the admission for the patients of Group ND.
