C-reactive protein genetics is associated with carotid artery compliance in men in the cardiovascular risk in Young Finns study (2008)

Eklund, C, Kivimäki, M, Islam, M.S., Juonala, M, Kähönen, M, Marniemi, J, ...

Although C-reactive protein (CRP) is known to predict cardiovascular events, its status as a causal risk factor is still controversial. CRP gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been shown...

Survival potential of non-culturable vibrio cholerae 01 by laboratory (2007)

Islam, M.S., Miah, M.A., Moniruzzaman, M.S., Begum, S., Felsenstein, A., Sack, R.B., ...

Objective: Assess the survival potential of V, cholerae 01 using conventional cultural, fluorescent antibody and recently developed polymerase chain reaction techniques. In Bangladesh, cholera is...

Peripheral blood granulocytes and mononuclear cell responses in monkeys with experimental shigellosis (2007)

Islam, L.N., Ferdous, A., Azim, T., Qadri, F., Rahman, A., Islam, M.S., ...

Changes in neutrophil response to N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) and the phenotype of peripheral blood mononuclear cells were studied in monkeys after oral challenge with Shigellae....

Socioeconomic differentials of diarrhoea morbidity and mortality in selected villages of Bangladesh (2007)

Islam, M.S., Bhuiya, A., Yunus, M.

In an attempt to examine the possible effects of socioeconomic factors on diarrheal disease in terms of 1) number of household episodes, 2) hospitalizations, and 3) fatalities, data from the Matlab...

Detection of Shigellae from Stools of Dysentery Patients by Culture and Polymerase Chain Reaction Techniques (2007)

Islam, M.S., Hosssin, M.S., Hasan, M.K., Rahman, M.M., Fuchs, G., Mahalanabis, D., ...

In Bangladesh, the isolation rates of Shigella spp. range from 11% to 12% by the conventional culture technique. Since the sensitivity of this technique is low, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)...

Detection of non-culturable Shigella dysenteriae 1 from artificially contaminated volunteers' fingers using fluorescent antibody and PCR techniques. (2007)

Islam, M.S., Hossian, M.Z., Khan, S.I., Felsenstein, A., Sack, R.B., Albert, M.J.
