Smith, Rodney A. Moxley, Michael E. Olson, Paul D. Fey, Andrew K. Benson
Identification Of Common Subpopulations Of Non-Sorbitol-Fermenting, Β-Glucuronidase-Negative Escherichia Coli O157:H7 From Bovine Production Environments And Human Clinical Samples, Zhijie Yang, Joy Kovar, Jaehyoung Kim, Joseph Nietfeldt, David R. Smith, Rodney A. Moxley, Michael E. Olson, Paul D. Fey, Andrew K. Benson
School of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences: Faculty Publications
Non-sorbitol-fermenting, β-glucuronidase-negative Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains are regarded as a clone complex, and populations from different geographical locations are believed to share a recent common ancestor. Despite their relatedness, high-resolution genotyping methods can detect significant genome variation among different populations. Phylogenetic analysis of high-resolution genotyping data from these strains has shown that subpopulations from geographically unlinked continents can be divided into two primary phylogenetic lineages, termed lineage I and lineage II, and limited studies of the distribution of these lineages suggest there could be differences in their propensity to cause disease in humans or to be transmitted to humans. Because …

Role Of Tuberculosis Laboratories In Saudi Arabia. A Call To Implement Standardized Procedures, Sahal A. Al-Hajoj, Fahad A. Alrabiah
Role Of Tuberculosis Laboratories In Saudi Arabia. A Call To Implement Standardized Procedures, Sahal A. Al-Hajoj, Fahad A. Alrabiah
Saudi Medical Journal
There is no doubt that the laboratory is the backbone for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). Only through testing in the laboratory can the physician confirm suspicion of TB despite any previous clinical and x-ray findings. Recent visits to several laboratories in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia showed that some need considerable improvement. Unless there are standardized procedures to diagnose TB, and safety measures are implemented in all laboratories, it will be impossible to diagnose accurately and control TB. The laboratories should be redesigned to conform to international TB Diagnostic Centers, with well trained staff and proper safety procedures.

Towards Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines In Saudi Arabia, Lubna A. Al-Ansary, Abdulla Alkhenizan
Saudi Medical Journal
The objective of this review is to provide a brief background on clinical practice guidelines CPGs and tools to assess and locally adapt CPGs. Over the last 2 decades, CPGs have become an increasingly popular tool for synthesis of clinical information, so as to change clinical practice and improve quality of health care. Such a quantitative growth in the number of guidelines available in different specialties is a source of concern since there is evidence that recommendations produced by different groups can be conflicting, invalid, unreliable, and even harmful. Various critical appraisal instruments were designed and tested to assess whether …

Plasma Concentrations Of Non-Esterified Fatty Acids In Chronic Renal Failure In The United Arab Emirates, Michael P. Gillett, Enyioma N. Obineche, Safina T. Khan, Abdishakur M. Abdulle
Saudi Medical Journal
OBJECTIVE: In end-stage renal failure, dyslipoproteinemia is linked to risk of cardiovascular disease. Increased concentrations of triacylglycerol-rich, very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and decreased concentrations of high density lipoproteins (HDL) are usual, whilst total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) concentrations are not increased. Non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) are not transported by lipoproteins, but increased concentrations may also be associated with cardiovascular disease risk. In this study, plasma concentrations of NEFA and other lipids were compared in healthy subjects and patients with end-stage chronic renal failure who were either undialyzed or undergoing peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis. METHODS: Fasted blood samples …

Subcutaneous Dirofilariasis Caused By Dirofilaria Repens, Rajan Chopra, Bodh R. Panhotra, Yusef Al-Marzooq, Abdul-Rahman Al-Mulhim
Saudi Medical Journal
Human dirofilariasis caused by Dirofilaria repens D. repens is a common zoonosis in the Mediterranean countries and parts of South Asia. During the last decade, it has been reported from countries previously considered non-endemic. This is likely due to the increased awareness regarding Dirofilaria infection. In some such cases however, dirofilariasis correlated with the travel of the patient to the endemic areas. We present the case of a Saudi male who had D. repens infection in the subcutaneous tissues of the forearm. The patient had traveled to Iraq, Syria, United Arab Emirates and Kuwait in the last 2 years. However, …

Primary Ovarian Hydatid Disease In The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia, Onnuola A. Adewunmi, Hoogar M. Basilingappa
Saudi Medical Journal
Human hydatid disease is caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Its distribution is world wide and it affects mainly the liver, but other organs could be involved. Primary involvement of pelvic organs is very rare. This is a case report of primary ovarian hydatid disease in a postmenopausal woman, diagnosed postoperatively. Surgical excision was adequate. Ultrasonography, particularly high frequency trans-vaginal, computed tomography scan and, more recently, magnetic resonance imaging are more frequently used in the diagnosis of Echinococcus cyst. They appear more reliable than many of the old tests of varying sensitivities. Whereas, there are anecdotal reports of obstetric and gynecological manifestations …

City Of Santa Clara's Housing Element Approach To The Provision Of Affordable Housing, Ahmed M. Arikat
Master's Projects
“Affordable Housing” refers to housing provided for low-income population. The generally accepted definition of affordability is for a household to pay no more than 30 percent of its annual income on housing.'’ Since the median cost of housing in California is higher than the median cost for the nation, even moderate-income households end up spending more than 30 percent of their income on housing. The lack of affordable housing is a significant hardship for these households preventing them from meeting their other basic needs, such as nutrition and healthcare, or saving for their future and that of their families. It …
