Background : Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a virus that damages the immune system and CD4 cells. The stronger the virus in destroying CD4 cells, the body has a higher risk for various types of infections and some cancers. There is no cure for HIV / AIDS, but there are several drugs that can reduce or inhibit the multiplication of HIV in the body with antiretroviral therapy (ARV). Opportunistic infections (OI) are the leading cause of death in 90% of people living with AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). The massive increasing number of death from opportunistic infections contributes to AIDS. The purpose of this study was to analysis the relationship of oportunitical infections in PLWHA on arvs compliance within palembang city Method : This research was an observational study, with a cross sectional study design on februari until maret 2020. Data samples of 235 People with Hiv and Aids (PLWHA) in Palembang were chosen by purposive random sampling. Results: The results...

Las infecciones respiratorias agudas bajas son causa frecuente de internación en los primeros años de vida, constituyendo un tema prioritario por su gran implicancia en la morbimortalidad infantil. Esto lleva a la necesidad de disponer de mayor información sobre esta ...

The faculty is located in the north-Moravian part of the Czech Republic. The region has historically developed as a centre of coalmines, metallurgical, chemical and machinery industry. During the years of socialistic regime all these branches have been heavily overdimensioned. The economic transformation in the Czech republic after the year 1989 demanded also the reconstruction of the general educational system. This paper deals with the partial problem -- education of the postgraduates, Ph.D. -- degree, which has been solved simultaneously in the general framework. The goal is to prepare highly qualified, flexible workers for research and new technologies in the development of the region and also for the expected affiliation to the European Community. The article is going to describe the methods of education, different forms of study, newly created branches and innovation of traditional branches, where the faculty holds monopoly position. The postgraduate education belongs to the m...

Hangman’s fracture, also known as traumatic spondylolisthesis of the axis, causes widening of the neural canal and thus a low rate of neurological deficits. This low rate is one of the reasons it is neglected and patients present with late neurological deficits. In an effort to preserve motion at the C1–2 joint, the authors devised a new technique of bilateral C2 pedicle reconstruction. They describe the first two cases in the literature of an old hangman’s fracture with resorbed C2 pedicles due to chronic fracture, in which bilateral C2 pedicles were reconstructed. One of the two cases (case 2) is the first reported case of severe C2–3 spondyloptosis with C2 displaced up to the level of C4. Case 1 had a follow up of 21 months, while case 2 had a follow up of 12 months. Both patients experienced neurological improvement with evidence of fusion and artificial pedicle formation at last follow-up. Bilateral C2 pedicle reconstruction is a feasible technique that can be used with a good ...

The implementation of the market mechanism, which includes electricity price fluctuation, and a wide integration of intermittent generation, namely solar PV and wind energy, in energy production have changed the role and operation manner of conventional generation. It is partly or not at all adapted to new running conditions. Therefore, the efficiency and flexibility of conventional generation has to be improved. The numerical approach is developed in the context of combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) technology to adapt its running conditions to the electricity market mechanism. The developed approach was verified on a case study of the Baltic States (Latvia) examples in a multi-paradigm numerical computing environment MATLab. The obtained results show that the added profit is gained through production of supplementary electricity, and the impact of cycling operation is reduced through the decrease of cycling operation ranges numbers and the substitution of start-up with a less adver...
