In contrast to the early phase, in which well described guidelines for the sampling indication and procedure exist, the indication for blood culture sampling during the late time points are often also determined by the clinical phenotype and may not be as precisely captured when compared to the onset phase.
We believe these issues are largely irrelevant provided one has a goal of determining success of infection control within an institution, if the sampling indications remain similar over time, which is an assumption behind much passive infectious disease surveillance.
All codon 12/13 mutations detected by Pyrosequencing were confirmed, and in three additional samples indications of KRAS mutations were found.
A limitation is that, as it occurs in the greatest majority of large prospective cohort studies, for each individual PAI-1 level could only be assessed in a single plasma sample; thus, indications of long-term variation in these levels since baseline are lacking.
In contrast, a limitation of the present study is that, as it occurs in the greatest majority of large prospective cohort studies, for each participant the PAI-1 level could only be assessed in a single plasma sample; thus, indications of long-term variation in its levels since baseline are lacking.
AMML: Automated Microbial Metabolism Laboratory, a NASA-sponsored instrument that was designed to test soil samples for indications of life.
Our calculations are essentially a business-case and provide sample-specific indications on costs, which can help other trusts plan their individual cases.
To describe clinical characteristics driving repeated blood culture sampling: clinical indications, time interval between cultures, and rates of blood culture-positivity.
"Our researchers are constantly gathering new samples and indications of infections based on this vulnerability". For general home users worried about security, Prof Woodward suggested simply keeping an eye on manufacturer websites for updates - particularly for hardware such as broadband routers.
We recorded the maternal ages at the expected time of delivery, gestational ages at blood sampling, and indications for invasive testing.
