Blood cultures (BC) are often repeated when contamination with commensal organisms is suspected. Subsequent BC contamination rate (CR), however, is unknown. We compared the CR in all BC (n=15394) and BC in patients with a prior contamination (n=901). CR after a prior contamination was ...
There is compelling evidence that initiation and maintenance of epileptic seizures in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is facilitated by excessive accumulation in the extracellular (perisynaptic) space of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate (Glu). This review discusses the mechanisms underlying this phenom...

In the US alone, roughly 8 million people break a bone every year [2]. Fractures of the tibia, particularly the distal tibia, are at a higher risk of delayed healing and non-union than other long bones due to their special structure and poor blood supply [3, 4]. Distal tibial ...
Pairing vitamin D3 with vitamin K2 helps improve calcium absorption and inflammation control. I recommend taking a vitamin D3 supplement with at least 3,000-5,000 IU’s of vitamin D3 and at least 90 mcg of vitamin K2. For a supplement with the proper ratios, I highly recommend thisVitami...
Light is the visible part of the electromagnetic radiation within a range of 380–780 nm; (400–700 on primates retina). In vertebrates, the retina is adapted to capturing light photons and transmitting this information to other structures in the cent

Excessive salt intake has been associated with the development of non-communicable diseases, including hypertension with several cardiovascular consequences. Although the detrimental effects of high salt on the skeleton have been reported, longitudinal assessment of calcium balance together with changes in bo...
