Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility Assay for Rapid Diagnosis of Lymph Node Tuberculosis and Detection of Drug Resistance.
In this study, 132 patients with lymphadenopathy were investigated. Fifty-two (39.4%) were diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB). The microscopic observation drug susceptibility (MODS) assay provided rapid (13 days), accurate diagnosis (sensitivity, 65.4%) and reliable drug susceptibility testing (DST). Despite its lower sensitivity than that of other methods, its faster results and simultaneous DST are advantageous in resource-poor settings, supporting the incorporation of MODS into diagnostic algorithms for extrapulmonary TB

Excitons and shallow impurities in GaAs-Ga1-xAlxAs semiconductor heterostructures within a fractional-dimensional space approach: Magnetic-field effects
The fractional-dimensional space approach is extended to study exciton and shallow-donor states in symmetric-coupled GaAs-Ga1-xAlxAs multiple quantum wells. In this scheme, the real anisotropic 'exciton (or shallow donor) plus multiple quantum well' semiconductor system is mapped, for each exciton (or donor) state, into an effective fractional-dimensional isotropic environment, and the fractional dimension is essentially related to the anisotropy of the actual semiconductor system. Moreover, the fractional-dimensional space approach was extended to include magnetic-field effects in the study of shallow-impurity states in GaAs-Ga1-xAlxAs quantum wells and superlattices. In our study, the magnetic field was applied along the growth direction of the semiconductor heterostructure, and introduces an additional degree of confinement and anisotropy besides the one imposed by the heterostructure barrier potential. The fractional dimension is then related to the anisotropy introduced both by the heterostructure barrier potential and magnetic field. Calculations within the fractional-dimensional space scheme were performed for the binding energies of 1s-like heavy-hole direct exciton and shallow-donor states in symmetric-coupled semiconductor quantum wells, and for shallow-impurity states in semiconductor quantum wells and superlattices under growth-direction applied magnetic fields. Fractional-dimensional theoretical results are shown to be in good agreement with previous variational theoretical calculations and available experimental measurements.6119131041311

Rarity of monodominance in hyperdiverse Amazonian forests.
Tropical forests are known for their high diversity. Yet, forest patches do occur in the tropics where a single tree species is dominant. Such "monodominant" forests are known from all of the main tropical regions. For Amazonia, we sampled the occurrence of monodominance in a massive, basin-wide database of forest-inventory plots from the Amazon Tree Diversity Network (ATDN). Utilizing a simple defining metric of at least half of the trees ≥ 10 cm diameter belonging to one species, we found only a few occurrences of monodominance in Amazonia, and the phenomenon was not significantly linked to previously hypothesized life history traits such wood density, seed mass, ectomycorrhizal associations, or Rhizobium nodulation. In our analysis, coppicing (the formation of sprouts at the base of the tree or on roots) was the only trait significantly linked to monodominance. While at specific locales coppicing or ectomycorrhizal associations may confer a considerable advantage to a tree species and lead to its monodominance, very few species have these traits. Mining of the ATDN dataset suggests that monodominance is quite rare in Amazonia, and may be linked primarily to edaphic factors
