From a clinical perspective, topical immunotherapy of mucosal surfaces with monoclonal antibodies can block entry and transmission of bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites that infect humans, and defeat some key strategies, evolved by many pathogens, to evade the host immune system.
The lung is the major portal of entry and transmission for variola virus, the etiologic agent of smallpox.
Retro-fitting a monitor with a data entry and transmission module [ 25 ].
Data entry and transmission to the data coordinating center was completed on a weekly basis by trained data entry staff.
The HIV epidemic threatens the entire population of Angola and youth are the most vulnerable as a point of entry for transmission of the virus.
36, 37 The RNA-Seq analysis identified the tight junction signaling canonical pathway (Supporting Fig. 1), increasingly thought to be important in HCV entry and transmission.
The MagPi system allows for mobile phone entry and transmission of information as well as real-time data retrieval capabilities in a secure online database.
The purposes of this study were to characterize methicillin-resistant isolates from an outbreak in a NICU, to examine the genetic traits and clonality of CA-MRSA, and to review the characteristics and outcomes of the neonatal cases and investigate the routes of entry and transmission of the MRSA outbreak strain in the NICU under study.
However, handheld computers will not result in greater accuracy of data where the performance of the paper method is already at a high level or where the source of error is in data collection rather than in data entry or transmission.
The aim of the study was to characterize the bacterial isolates, determine the genetic traits and clonality of CA-MRSA, and to review the characteristics and outcomes of the neonatal cases and investigate the routes of entry and transmission of the MRSA strain in the NICU under study.
Since the reporter gene assay measures a post-entry event, transmission electron microscopy was employed to visualize VACV infection of S2 cells.
