Background Bacterial vaginosis is believed to be a risk factor for preterm delivery. We
undertook a study of the association between bacterial vaginosis and the preterm delivery of …

Recently, several implementations of arterial spin labeling (ASL) techniques have been
developed for producing MRI images sensitive to local tissue perfusion. For quantitation of …

Background: Several studies have suggested that pregnant women infected with
Trichomonas vaginalis may be at increased risk of an adverse outcome. Goal: To evaluate …

Our purpose was to use whole brain echo planar magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to
identify and characterize diffusion abnormalities in acute cerebral ischemia. We studied 40 …

PURPOSE: To create qualitative maps of cerebral blood flow (CBF) with the EPISTAR (echo-planar
imaging and signal targeting with alternating radio frequency) technique. …

We isolated spirochetes from the blood of 2 of 36 patients in Long Island and Westchester
County, New York, who had signs and symptoms suggestive of Lyme disease. The …

In developing countries, acquired bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents is common in
isolates from healthy persons and from persons with community-acquired infections. …

PURPOSE Our purpose was to evaluate the clinical efficacy, sensitivity, and specificity of
echo-planar diffusion-weighted MR imaging in patients with acute infarction. METHODS We …

We aimed to determine the frequency and time course of the enlargement of ischemic cerebral
lesions following human stroke and to study the effect of the state of perfusion on lesion …

Voluntary hand movements in humans involve the primary motor cortex (M1). A functional
magnetic resonance imaging method that measures relative cerebral blood flow was used to …
