INADEQUATE CEREBROSPINAL FLUID CONCENTRATIONS OF AVAILABLE SALVAGE AGENTS FURTHER IMPEDES THE OPTIMAL TREATMENT OF MULTIDRUG-RESISTANT ENTEROCOCCUS FAECIUM MENINGITIS AND BACTEREMIA

Inadequate Cerebrospinal Fluid Concentrations of Available Salvage Agents Further Impedes the Optimal Treatment of Multidrug-Resistant Enterococcus faecium Meningitis and Bacteremia

Background: Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) in particular has evolved as an important cause of hospital acquired infection, especially in immunocompromised hosts.Methods: We present a complex case of a patient with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia who underwent allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation complicated by persiste

Investigation of Interference Models for RFID Systems

The reader-to-reader collision in an RFID system is a challenging problem for communications technology.In order to model the interference between RFID readers, different interference models here have been proposed, mainly based on two approaches: single and additive interference.The former only considers the interference from one reader within a c
