Evidently, if the sexual roles are indeed in conflict here, this also provides scope for investigating the possibility of the recipient to evolve resistance traits to counteract the effect of a specific seminal fluid component (persistence trait).
The same behaviour occurred in case of amniotic fluid leaking; the persistence of the symptoms however contributed to the decision eventually to seek care.
Increased PGE concentrations in uterine fluid cause luteal persistence in cows [ 18], suggesting that in cows with metritis this prostaglandin plays a local role in the pathogenesis of persistent CL.
Several studies have shown that both the magnitude and persistence of fluid overload are associated with worse outcomes, suggesting that prevention and correction of fluid accumulation are modifiable risk factors to improve survival.
The application of ultrasound is enormously important during follow-up, because in case of persistence of fluid collection over a period of more than 2 weeks of antibiotic shielding, a catheter change is recommended.
Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytology showed persistence of predominantly neutrophilic inflammation through day 14 after zymosan administration in p47phox−/− mice, whereas BALF neutrophilic leukocytosis in WT mice normalized by day 7 (>90% macrophages; Figure 1D and E).
We analyzed whether a positive fluid balance and its persistence over time was an independent prognostic factor in septic patients.
However, sequestration also leads to tubular hypoperfusion, and its persistence despite fluid and anti-malarial therapy [ 25, 35] may again explain why AKI continues to evolve in some patients.
Supplementary MRI, (c) sagittal STIR and (d) T1-weighted images show erosion of the dens and protrusion of the tip into the occipital foramen causing narrowing of the spinal canal to 9 mm, but persistence of cerebrospinal fluid around the cord.
A second bronchoscopy was performed and BAL fluid cytologic analysis showed the persistence of 20 to 30 AFB/field, which were again identified as M. genavense, without other pathogens.
