The article is authored by two authors, Tanyi John Tanyi and Julius Atashilli. Both authors contributed to the development and publication of the article. Tanyi John Tanyi managed and followed-up the patient and wrote the original manuscript. Julius Atashilli critically reviewed the manuscript. Both authors read and approved the final manuscript. Therefore, both authors merit inclusion in the authors list (International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, 2006). The authors do not provide information on whether they received any funding for the article but they declare no conflicts of interest.

Synergistic effect of human plasma and antimicrobial peptidomimetics and antibiotics on pathogenic bacteria: The Application is a promising tool in enhancing the efficacy of future antibiotics.
This work aims at summarizing and critiquing the Research in Microbiology journal research paper titled ‘Improved In vitro evaluation of novel antimicrobials: potential synergy between human plasma and antibacterial peptidomimetics, AMPs and antibiotics against human pathogenic bacteria’ .

Abstract

Condisering the hurdles of cytotoxicity and adverse side effects posed by existing antibiotics and the ever rising resistance of microorganisms to these compounds, there is a dire need for development of innovative antimicrobial peptidomimetics (AMPs) . Despite ...

Article Review: “Has Psychology Failed?” by Jastrow

Article Review: “Has Psychology Failed?” by Jastrow
The article “Has Psychology Failed?” by Jastrow (1935) addresses the issues facing applied psychology and the limitations imposed by different schools of psychology, such as behaviorism and the psychoanalytic school. Even though he commends Watson’s desire to move psychology from theoretical science to applied science and Freud’s appreciation of the importance of emotions and subconscious mental processes in structuring the human mind, Jastrow believes a naturalist perspective would benefit psychology as a unified science with practical implications. However, most of the article is dedicated to lamenting the current state of psychology ...

Background

Each year, millions of mammals cross the Seregenti. The migration of the wildebeest is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world. But there is something not so wonderful in the Serengeti—an endemic disease called anthrax that strikes and kills without discrimination. It kills humans, livestock, and wildlife.

This study is about the ecopathology of Bacillus anthracis (Cohn), the pathogen that causes anthrax. Anthrax is not a big problem in most countries, but anthrax is still common in Africa because sanitation is poor, and there is no access to vaccines.
The ecology of anthrax is not well ...

The article at hand discussed the effectiveness and benefits of usage of MR Imaging in the case of Alzheimer Disease. The study took place in a mouse model, however it claims for being equally effective in the treatment of people who suffer from this disease. The main purpose of the study was to determine whether MR targeted to the hippocampus is helpful in identifying and monitoring Alzheimer Disease. It is also aimed at seeking ways to achieve improvement in pathologic brain abnormalities and behavior that can possibly prevent prompt development of disease.
The choice of the method that was ...

Hotel Monte Carlo Hotel in Las Vegas was built in 1995. Three years later, on 25th January 2008 a fire broke and destroyed some parts of the hotel. It is believed that the main factor for the start of this fire was the welding that happened on the on a catwalk at the roof high screen parapet wall of the Monte Carlo Hotel (Beitel, J., & Evans, D., 2011). The investigation results were never published. However, the questions remained. What were the things that contributed to the spread of fire trough out the building?
The investigators examined the constructions material ...

Technology has led to efficiency in the health care industry. This technology continues to expand due to high investment in research and development in health care. As the technology improves, so will there be more job opportunities for practitioners. New careers will materialize as people handle technology in affecting the health care (Fett, 2006). Technology has given a major boost in quickly gathering medical records since they can rely on the computer system. The computer system enables the review of patients’ records and scheduling of appointments as well as administration of treatment. There have been significant innovations in the field ...

Introduction

SOPA or stop online piracy act is a proposed bill which targets to eliminate the infringement of copyright. This is by blocking access to any site that is facilitated or host pirated content. Stop online piracy act was formed to target any oversea site such as torrent hub, which is widely known for providing unlicensed product. The creators of web content have had an endless war with the web content piracy for an unusually long time. The fact that these websites are located overseas makes it difficult to, totally, stop it. The intention of SOPA was to ensure that the ...

Introduction

The article, “Genotyping and identification of mycobacteria by fingerprinting Techniques” by Khosravi and Seghatoleslami (2009) shows how fingerprinting can be used to identify mycobacteria in combating Tuberculosis (TB) which for a long time has been a serious health concern by the World Health Organization (WHO). Some of the techniques used in molecular epidemiology like MIRU-VNTR and spoligotyping are described in the article.

Summary

The article has deeply illustrated the various ways of carrying out Genotyping of mycobacteria for carrying out epidemiological studies. It has also shown that through molecular typing of MTB the disease can be controlled. The study of the epidemiology ...
