Disease relevance of Tastrak

  • Two international methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clones endemic in a university hospital in Patras, Greece [1].
  • Sixty sexually-active male patients affected by colorectal cancer and surgically treated at the Department of Surgery at University of Patras between 1981 and 1987 were interviewed by structured questionnaire to evaluate the etiology of sexual dysfunction [2].
  • In 1996, 19 isolates of serotype 6B Streptococcus pneumoniae with a unique resistance pattern were found in carriers attending daycare centres in Patras, Southwestern Greece [3].
  • In this study we monitored the sensitivity of 239 gram-negative bacteria (of fecal and non-fecal origin), isolated from the old drinking water distribution network of Patras in southwestern Greece, to 20 antibiotic agents [4].
  • The numbers of A. hydrophila were monitored at 11 beaches along the coastline of Patras and the distribution of Aeromonas was not found homogenous [5].
 

High impact information on Tastrak

 

Biological context of Tastrak

  • SETTING: Departments of Dermatology and Ophthalmology, University of Patras, Greece and Department of Dermatology, Heinrich-Heine University of Düsseldorf, Germany. SUBJECTS: Twelve patients (aged 23-52 years) with active BD who had previously been unsuccessfully treated with systemic steroids and/or immunosuppressives [10].
  • The high antibiotic resistance rate of the isolated microorganisms from the Patras drinking water supply is discussed [4].
  • Consecutive late onset PD patients seen in the Department of Neurology, Medical School of Patras, Greece were included in this study [11].
  • CONCLUSIONS: The spread of two clones expressing the vanA gene and virulence factors were responsible for the emergence of GRE in the University Hospital of Patras [12].
  • An initiative for the development of a multinational advanced course in Biomedical Engineering, is implemented in the University of Patras with extended collaboration of European Universities, providing a unique case for achievement of excellency [13].
 

Anatomical context of Tastrak

  • Also, runoff ribosomes from mussels transplanted to Gulf of Patras (that is, ribosomes stripped of endogenous messengers and peptidyl- or/and aminoacyl-tRNAs) were less efficient at initiating protein synthesis in an in vitro-translation system than those prepared from reference samples [14].
  • Compared with the reference samples, mussels transplanted to Gulf of Patras showed a significant increased lysosomal membrane permeability and metallothionein content, reduced polysome levels, and increased chromosomal damage in relation to the contamination burden of each sampling area [14].
  • In the Orthopaedic Department in Patras University 427 intramedullary nailings in the lower limbs were performed between 1989 and 1994 and retrospectively reviewed to evaluate the range of complications [15].
 

Associations of Tastrak with other chemical compounds

  • Air quality data (O3, NO2, NO, CO and SO2) of two Greek coastal cities, Patras and Volos, were analyzed and compared to evaluate: (a) the exceedances of air quality EU threshold values, (b) the diurnal patterns of air pollutants and (c) the "weekend effect" on ozone levels [16].
  • SETTING: Departments of Medicine and Surgery, Patras University Medical School, Patras, Greece [17].
