...that occurs outside the hospital setting often looks innocuous at first - you may see pimples, swollen skin and a rash, and you may develop a fever. If you're concerned about whether you've been exposed to MRSA, take precautions to keep your wound covered so you don't transmit the bacteria to others, and see your doctor immediately. But remember that staph is not a death sentence - with the right antibiotics, it can be treated...
...abortions over the past 15 years. Maine Middle schoolers, like kids all across the country, are already postponing sex longer: The percentage who reported having sexual intercourse dropped from 23% in 1997 to 13% in 2005, according to the Maine Youth Risk Behavior Survey. While rates of sexually transmitted disease remain alarmingly high, the best chance of attacking the problem would transmit the values and the facts together, rather than implying that the two are at odds...
...study found that the mutant mice could also transmit the disease to other mice through feces, suggesting the genetic defect encourages the growth of aggressively infectious bacteria...
...that matter - that would measure structural problems like strain, deflection, cracks, corrosion or the loosening of bolts, says Chuck Farrar, a civil engineer at the Los Alamos lab. Once the sensors identify a hazardous change in the structure's vitals, such as its dimensions or temperature, they would transmit the information to a computer, which would analyze the data to figure out what went wrong...
...chief problem with the sensor technology is how to find an inexpensive way of transmitting the sensors' data to computers. Sensors currently rely on batteries that often need to be replaced, and they require a fair amount of bulky hardware. "Right now, it wouldn't be a cost-effective way [to monitor changes] on structures like bridges," Farrar says. So his team is testing small, remote-controlled helicopters that would send a pulse to provide power to the sensor, take a reading and send it back to the helicopter's computer and then transmit the data to officials...
