Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of MRU and determine its value for detecting ureteric obstruction.Methods The electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane library, were systematically searched for studies published throughout September 2018. The summary of sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio (PLR), negative likelihood ratio (NLR), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were assessed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of MRU. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on the mean age of the included patients (adults or children).Results Eight studies with a total of 594 patients were included. The summary of the sensitivity and specificity of MRU for diagnosing ureteric obstruction was 0.94 and 0.87, respectively. Furthermore, the pooled PLR and NLR were 7.33, and 0.07, respectively. The DOR of MRU for detecting ureteric obstruction was 95.12. In addition, the summary of the area under the ROC of MRU was 0.96. Finally, the specificity, PLR, and area under the ROC of MRU for diagnosing ureteric obstruction in adults were higher than children, while the sensitivity of MRU in adults was lower than children.Conclusions These findings suggested a relatively high diagnostic value of MRU for detecting ureteric obstruction. Diphenhydramine Moreover, the diagnostic accuracy of MRU in adults was higher than in children. Key messagesMRU in detecting ureteric obstruction has relatively better sensitivity, specificity, PLR, NLR, DOR, and AUC.The diagnostic value, including specificity, PLR, and AUC of MRU in adults, was higher than in children, while the sensitivity of MRU in adults was lower than in children.Candida albicans is the causative agent of candidiasis in immunocompromised and diseased individuals. The current study was designed to evaluate the antifungal activity of Trachyspermum ammi (L.) Sprague seeds ethanolic extract and hexanes fraction against Candida albicans, both in-vitro and in-vivo. The minimal inhibitory concentration of hexanes fraction was found to be 225 μg/mL, as compared to the standard drug amphotericin B (200 μg/mL). For the treatment of cutaneous candidiasis in BALB/c mice model, the extract and fraction containing ointment was topically applied on flank of mice at various concentrations, and 90-100% recovery in mice was observed which was better than the standard drug, clotrimazole. The GC/MS analysis of hexanes extract indicated the presence of three major components, including (43.91%), O-cymene (25.53%), and γ-terpinene (22.64%). The results showed that T. ammi possess potential antifungal effect, and can be used for the development of novel antifungal agents after further pre-clinical and clinical trials.1. Changes in feather length and weight and daily losses of down, contour feathers, remiges and retrices were studied in two commercial broiler strains to determine feather growth and moult in broilers up to 112 d of age.2. Ten pens of 20 chicks for each sex x strain were fed adequate amounts of dietary protein in a four-phase feeding programme. Ten birds were sampled per genotype at 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98 and 112 d. Feather loss was determined for individual birds caged within a nylon net.3. All feathers were dry-plucked from each of seven tracts, with representative feathers from the capital-cervical, dorsopelvic and interscapular, pectoral and femoral tracts being randomly selected. Three rectrices of the dorsocaudal tract and three primaries and secondaries of the humeral-alar tract of the right wing were evaluated.4. The length of the selected feathers was measured, and the feathers from each tract and from the whole bird were weighed.5. A wide range of rates of maturing (0.0250 - 0.0907/d) and mature weights (9.62 - 52.9 g) were evident between sampled tracts.6. Feather weight failed to predict some moults which were detected by the measurement of feather losses. From the weight data, moulting was evident only in the humeral-alar and dorsocaudal tracts, whereas, when daily losses were measured, contour feathers accounted for over 0.7 proportion of feather losses. Logistic equations adequately described the cumulative losses of down, contour feathers and remiges.7. Feather loss needs to be considered when feather growth is determined from feather weight at different ages.8. The rate of maturing (B) of feathers was numerically higher in Ross males and females than in the Cobb strain. In females, B was higher than in males (0.0483 vs. 0335/d) but the mature weight was lower (162 vs. 230 g).Supercritical fluid extraction was applied to obtain the lower polarity extracts from Croton crassifolius roots, and chemical investigation of which led to the isolation and identification of two new diterpenoids, named crassifolius P (1) and crassifolius Q (2). In vitro anti-proliferative activities of compounds 1 and 2 on A549, Hep-G2 and Hela tumor cell lines were evaluated. The two new compounds exhibited obvious selectivity to tumor cells with IC50 values ranging from 20.43 ± 1.18 μM to 25.72 ± 1.32 μM.AIMS To determine the outcome at 10 years of a cohort of ASR XL total hip arthroplasties (THAs) and reasons for revision. METHODS Between November 2005 and May 2007, 122 ASR XL THAs were implanted. All patients had a routine review at 6 weeks and 1 year, followed by a review in 2009 because of clinical concern and thereafter annual review up to 10 years with MRI. Review also included functional scores, radiographs, pain scores and blood metal ions. RESULTS 67 (54.9%) ASR XLs had been revised by 11.1 years. Reasons for revision included pain (89.6%), high levels of cobalt and chromium ions (50.7%) and radiographic or MRI changes (80.6%). All 3 factors were present in 23 (34.3%). Pain at 1 year did not predict revision, but pain at the 2009 review did. At 10 years the revised patients had an average Oxford Hip Score (OHS) of 25.38 (12-42) and the non-revised 23.61 (2-21), the difference was not significant (p = 0.48). 3 patients (4.5%) have had a further revision; 2 for a previously unrevised stem and the other for instability.
