Any idea if companies will create a board that allows for multiple cameras on one raspberry pi?

The crazy thing is that most people, on both sides of the aisle, are unhappy with the current system. Unfortunately, nobody seems to agree on how to fix it.

I know, I'm not saying that these are hereditary mutations. I'm saying that genes in all of us are involved in refractive development, and thus have to be inherited if mutations exist. I'm saying that our environment of myo

ah, I see what you're saying. Luckily, I've looked into this specific topic! Myopia is definitely hereditary, especially the pathologic variants that can lead to retinal tears and the like. That being said, there is the process of

Are you talking epigenetics? It's relatively closely related to mendelian inheritance. At a high level view, if genes are present in your genome that aren't "on" in a previous generation, but due to changes in behavior b

I'd try it again, the popularity has gone way up - last I checked, it is at >100k concurrent players on line. It's definitely lost some of the nostalgia, but it makes up for it with a load of new content.

Because you quoted the article using BioMedomics' antibody diagnostic test, I will quote the accuracy from their site[0]: > In order to test the detection sensitivity and specificity of the COVID-19 IgG-IgM combined antibody test,

I recently found out that my mini-ITX PC case (the EVGA Hadron) can actually support a larger motherboard with minimal modifications. That means more PCI-e slots, more RAM slots, more storage connectivity, and better I/O. It's mak

I agree it was a weird focus of the article based on the title. There are also problems associated with proning, including but not limited to: body habitus, loss of airway, hypotension, loss of venous access. I imagine that proning isn&#x27

I didn't claim that the QT prolongation implied arrhythmia.

It's pretty interesting seeing some of my peers who second-careered into medicine. They had experience which paid dividends throughout school and residency that will serve them well. I also have no idea how I would manage full time sch

I don't know if I really "left" if I never joined in the first place. I'm almost a doctor, now, but I studied computer science in college and became pre med in my third year of college. I realized I didn't really wa

That's not really fair. Jobs are sometimes hard to get, and landing a job at Amazon could make a huge difference in someone's life.

I'm not saying you're wrong, because you are right...but the title seems pretty self explanatory that it's the actual receptors being discovered, rather than that perception of taste. Unless I'm biased to read the title

That's a weak argument, in my opinion. I've commented on this in the past, but there's nothing physically stopping hospitals and other institutions with their own funding from opening of more spots. You can definitely get ACG

Can't edit this, but to be completely correct, it's looking for viral RNA present in samples, not necessarily blood. More commonly sputum or respiratory samples when it comes to coronavirus.
232.
by epmaybe 7y ago
Yes, but I don't think the PCR test is testing for that, currently. It's looking for pieces of viral RNA that are present in your blood. Antibody serology tests aren't readily available anywhere yet. In fact, the CDC is still

Now that is a very interesting question! Unfortunately, I don't think that we have a complete answer. A couple of notes, that perhaps can provide some perspective: 1. lungs are highly vascularised areas with a large amount of vascular

While low yield, it would be interesting to look at fast-tracked whole genome data from infected patients, and see if there are any SNPs or mutations that could put you at higher risk for mortality.

That's where Angiotensin I (ACE = Angiotensin Converting Enzyme) is converted to Angiotensin II, which acts on tons of blood vessels to increase blood pressure. That's essentially why ACE inhibitors have a blood pressure effect. O

yes, but there isn't a direct route from the outside to your brain. Your eye socket is relatively well insulated from the outside by skin, connective tissue, conjunctiva.

No, I think that's just the fact that most of the people who died were older with lots of comorbidities, like high blood pressure, diabetes, COPD, etc

Another interesting side effect could be other temporizing measures in the inpatient setting. My understanding from a brief skim of older research papers is that the ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers that we use today, like l

A counterpoint - testing like this takes resources, and creates a backlog for other more pressing tests for patients. I mentioned this in another comment, but if I have a patient with pneumonia, I'm more than likely going to treat it t

I meant that in a healthy patient with good access to health care, who presumably would not suffer tremendously from COVID-19, and be treated the same regardless of whether they had that or influenza, why get testing? It's a bit more c
