Oxacillin resistance among Staphylococcus aureus isolated from peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2011-01-01)
Peritonitis remains as the major cause of peritoneal dialysis failure, and Staphylococcus spp. are the main etiologic agents of these infections. Lower resolution rates are associated to Staphylococcus aureus episodes. ...

The objective this study was to detect methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in clinical and/or surveillance cultures of patients seen at a Brazilian teaching hospital and to associate their detection with the ...
Emergence of sensory selection mechanisms in Artificial Life simulations
(London, 2008)
Background
The evolutionary advantages of selective attention are unclear. Since the study of selective attention began, it has been suggested that the nervous system only processes the most relevant stimuli because of ...
