Does radiographic evidence of prior pulmonary tubercular infection influence the choice of empiric antibiotics for community-acquired pneumonia in a tuberculosis-endemic area?
Radiographic evidence of a previous pulmonary TB infection and a lower mPSI score increases the probability of the selection of a β-lactam-based regimen for the treatment of CAP.
These findings provide new insights into the signaling required for ES cell differentiation into hematopoietic as well as cardiac lineages and suggest that ROCK inhibitors are useful in directing iPS cell differentiation into cardiac progenitor cells for cell therapy of cardiovascular diseases.
