The invention relates to methods and kits for diagnosing and/or treating appendicitis in a subject, comprising obtaining a biological sample from said subject; detecting RNA expression levels of at least three or more biomarkers in the biological sample and comparing the expression levels of said at least three or more biomarkers to a control sample wherein an increase or decrease in the level of expression of said at least three or more biomarkers as compared to the control sample is indicative of appendicitis.
摘要:
A method for treating a patient suffering from one of septic shock, acute kidney injury, severe hypotension, cardiac arrest, and refractory hypotension, but not from myocardial infarction, is provided. The method includes administering a therapeutically effective dose of Angiotensin II, or Ang II, to the patient.

摘要:
The present disclosure provides methods for alleviating or preventing the negative physiological side effects associated with the administration of EGFR blocking therapeutics. The disclosure provides, inter alia, methods for treating or preventing: hypomagnesemia, cardiac dysfunction, and skin lesions, which are induced by EGFR blocking drugs, by administering an NK-1 receptor antagonist.
摘要:
A magnetically enhanced micro-cathode thruster assembly provides long-lasting thrust. The micro-cathode thruster assembly includes a tubular housing, a tubular cathode, an insulator, an anode and a magnetic field. The tubular housing includes an open distal end. The tubular cathode is housed within the housing and includes a distal end positioned proximate the open distal end of the housing. The insulator is in contact with the cathode forming an external cathode-insulator interface. The anode is housed within the housing, proximate the open distal end of the housing. The magnetic field is positioned at or about the external cathode-insulator interface and has magnetic field lines with an incidence angle of about 20 to about 30 degrees and preferably about 30 degrees relative to the external cathode-insulator interface.

A method of predicting a transformative event within a multivariable system includes receiving values for each of a plurality of variables of the multivariable system for a plurality of measurement times over a measurement time period; selecting a plurality of agitated variables as a sub-set of the plurality of variables; calculating a cross correlation coefficient between each pair of agitated variables from the plurality of agitated variables; identifying connected pairs of agitated variables based on the cross correlation coefficients; identifying all clusters of agitated variables such that each agitated variable within each cluster of agitated variables is a connected pair of agitated variables with at least one other agitated variable therein; identifying a percolating cluster of variables as the largest cluster of agitated variables from all clusters of agitated variables identified for the corresponding measurement time; receiving at least one nucleation core variable that is known to be associated with the transformative event; identifying all occurrences of the at least one nucleation core variable in each percolating cluster for each of the plurality of measurement times; calculating a nucleation index based on said all occurrences of the at least one nucleation core variable identified in each percolating cluster for each of the plurality of measurement times; comparing the nucleation index with a predetermined event index; and predicting the transformative event based on the comparing.
摘要:
The present invention relates, inter alia, to a method comprising administering to a subject having high output shock and undergoing treatment with a catecholamine at a dose equivalent to at least about 0.2 mcg/kg/min of norepinephrine a dose of angiotensin II which is effective to raise the blood pressure of the subject to a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of about 65 mm or above, and which is effective to reduce the dose of the catecholamine required to maintain a MAP of about 65 mm to the equivalent of about 0.05-0.2 mcg/kg/min norepinephrine or less, or to the equivalent of about 0.05 mcg/kg/min norepinephrine or less.
