Accordingly, antibiotic treatments targeting P. aeruginosa are currently recommended for severe patients with frequent episodes of exacerbation with this clinical profile [ 10].
However, the discrepancy between the number of potential islet recipients (ie, patients with T1D with frequent episodes of severe hypoglycemia and those with devastating microvascular diabetes complications) [ 9] and the number of available donors remains the major crucial issue to be solved, before a broader use of islet transplantation might become a reliable clinical alternative [ 1].
This is not an unexpected finding, and it is consistent with previous reports, which have revealed that the use of remifentanil is associated with more frequent episodes of bradycardia compared with other opioids [ 28].
Number of severe hypoglycemic episodes over the past year correlated with impairment scores for both math time (r = 0.39, P = 0.04) and reaction time (r = 0.40, P = 0.02) when blood glucose was >22.2 mmol/l, indicating that more frequent episodes were associated with more impairment.
His wife of 16 years reports that he has had a 5- to 7-year history of worsening behavior, with frequent episodes of having a 'short fuse' and losing his temper with their two young children.
In dialysis patients, the treatment of hyperphospathemia with calcium based compounds, when compared with sevelamer, is associated with more frequent episodes of hypercalcemia, suppression of intact parathyroid hormone and with progression of coronary calcifications.
M. Liao and colleagues had similar findings, with more frequent episodes of alcohol use being independently associated with unprotected anal sex, bisexual identity, multiple male sex partners, drug use, and higher levels of HIV/AIDS-related stigma and discrimination.
Materials and Methods: A total of 680 children with frequent episodes of acute otitis media were enrolled in the study.
Patients with narcolepsy-cataplexy (NC) present excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), cataplexy and an altered architecture of nocturnal sleep, with frequent episodes of REM-sleep at sleep onset (SOREM-sleep).
