1Invasive sinonasal disease due to Scopulariopsis candida: case report and review of scopulariopsosis.Invasive sinonasal disease due to Scopulariopsis candida: case report and review of scopulariopsosis.Kriesel, John D.; Gooch, Willis M.; Pavia, Andrew T.Sinonasal infection with fungi of the order Mucorales--termed mucormycosis or zygomycosis--is sometimes seen in immunosuppressed patients, including those with diabetic ketoacidosis and malignancy. We describe a case of invasive sinonasal infection with Scopulariopsis candida (not among the Mucorale...Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor; Itraconazole; Maxillary Sinus1994
2New locus for autosomal dominant stargardt-like disease maps to chromosome 4New locus for autosomal dominant stargardt-like disease maps to chromosome 4Zhang, KangStargardt disease (STGD) is the most common hereditary macular dystrophy and is characterized by decreased central vision, atrophy of the macula and underlying retinal-pigment epithelium, and frequent presence of prominent flecks in the posterior pole of the retina. STGD is most commonly inherited a...Haplotypes; Genetic Markers1999
3Nucleic acid vaccine encoding gD2 protects mice from herpes simplex virus type 2 disease.Nucleic acid vaccine encoding gD2 protects mice from herpes simplex virus type 2 disease.Kriesel, John D.; Spruance, Spotswood L.; Daynes, Raymond A.Nucleic acid vaccinations with plasmids pWW65, containing the sequence for herpes simplex type 2 (HSV-2) gD2, and pRSVnt, lacking the gD sequence, were studied. Groups of mice were immunized with pWW65 alone, pWW65 plus 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D3 (D3), or pRSVnt. Clinical disease (vaginitis), serum an...Mice, Inbred BALB C; Plasmids; Viral Vaccines1996
4Identification and functional consequences of a new mutation (E155G) in the gene for GCAP1 that causes autosomal dominant cone dystrophyIdentification and functional consequences of a new mutation (E155G) in the gene for GCAP1 that causes autosomal dominant cone dystrophyZhang, Kang2001
5Origins and affinities of modern humans: a comparison of mitochondrial and nuclear genetic dataOrigins and affinities of modern humans: a comparison of mitochondrial and nuclear genetic dataRogers, Alan R.; Jorde, Lynn B.To test hypotheses about the origin of modern humans, we analyzed mtDNA sequences, 30 nuclear restriction-site polymorphisms (RSPs), and 30 tetranucleotide short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms in 243 Africans, Asians, and Europeans. An evolutionary tree based on mtDNA displays deep African branch...Base Sequence; Variation (Genetics); Base Sequence1995
6Mutations in LRP5 or FZD4 underlie the common familial exudative vitreoretinopathy locus on chromosome 11qMutations in LRP5 or FZD4 underlie the common familial exudative vitreoretinopathy locus on chromosome 11qZhang, Kang; Yang, Zhenglin; Jiang, LiFamilial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is an inherited blinding disorder of the retinal vascular system. Autosomal dominant FEVR is genetically heterogeneous, but its principal locus, EVR1, is on chromosome 11q13-q23. The gene encoding the Wnt receptor frizzled-4 (FZD4) was recently reported ...Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy; FEVR; Inherited blinding disorders2004
7Anti-interleukin-6 antibodies inhibit herpes simplex virus reactivation.Anti-interleukin-6 antibodies inhibit herpes simplex virus reactivation.Kriesel, John D.; Maulden, Sarah Annamarie; Spruance, Spotswood L.Herpes simplex viruses (HSVs) infect epithelial cells, become localized in neurons, and can reactivate in response to a variety of stimuli, including ultraviolet light and hyperthermia. The sequence of gene activation during viral replication is known, but the molecular linkage between exogenous sti...Mice, Inbred BALB C; Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha; Virus Activation1997
8Role of the laboratory in diagnosis of influenza during seasonal epidemics and potential pandemicsRole of the laboratory in diagnosis of influenza during seasonal epidemics and potential pandemicsPetti, Cathy A.Laboratory diagnosis of influenza is critical to its treatment and surveillance. With the emergence of novel and highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, the role of the laboratory has been further extended to include isolation and subtyping of the virus to monitor its appearance and facilitate ap...Antibodies, Viral; Antigens, Viral; RNA, Viral2006
9Assessment of the utility of viral culture of cerebrospinal fluidAssessment of the utility of viral culture of cerebrospinal fluidPetti, Cathy A.; Polage, Christopher R.Nucleic acid amplification testing is the preferred method to detect enteroviruses and Herpesviridae in cerebrospinal fluid, but clinicians still request viral culture. Review of 22,394 viral cultures of cerebrospinal fluid samples found that <0.1% recovered nonenterovirus, non-Herpesviridae species...Enterovirus Infections; Herpesviridae Infections; Virus Cultivation2006-12-15

11Outbreak of toxic anterior segment syndrome following cataract surgery associated with impurities in autoclave steam moisture.Outbreak of toxic anterior segment syndrome following cataract surgery associated with impurities in autoclave steam moisture.Mamalis, Nick; Nilson, Christian D.BACKGROUND: Toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS), a complication of cataract surgery, is a sterile inflammation of the anterior chamber of the eye. An outbreak of TASS was recognized at an outpatient surgical center and its affiliated hospital in December 2002. METHODS: Medical records of patients...Toxic anterior segment syndrome; cataract surgery; autoclave steam moisture2006
