Diabetic population were reported more likely to suffer carriage and infection with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) than non-diabetic population. We aim to elucidate the prevalence and characteristics of S. aureus and MRSA nasal carriage among diabetic population in the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2001–2004. Univariate analyses were conducted using Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact probability test or

for service due to congestion of arrivals and/or lack of capacity results in increase in the duration of interoperation stays. The different options to organize coach flows at a technical station lead to:
–change in the duration of stay for equipment operation at a technical station;
–change in trainset scheduling, which is basic for scheduling plan and train traffic schedule in the railway network.
Hence, technical stations are complex technological sites where the processes of carriage

Abstract
Neisseria meningitidis is an etiological factor of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD). This Gram-negative diplococcus is transmitted from person to person via droplets or through a direct physical contact with secretions of infected patients or asymptomatic carriers. The latter account for 5–10% of the general population. The aim of the study was to estimate the actual N. meningitidis carriage rate in the military environment with identification of serogroups, genogroups, sequence

Introduction
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most frequently isolated pathogens from the hospital or community-acquired infections. Staphylococci are a large group of bacteria in every environment; however, these bacteria can proliferate only in humans or animals. Many staphylococcal species colonize the skin and mucosal membranes, especially the perineum and pharynx. The other sites that harbor these bacteria are the gastrointestinal tract, vagina, and axilla, but carriage in those areas

FIRE
Fire is a rare but devastating consequence of defibrillation however this risk is not mentioned in standard critical care or cardiology literature.6,7 If fire were to occur during an aeromedical evacuation, it could result in the loss of the patient and crews’ life and loss of the aircraft.
The causes of fire can be further divided into two categories:

Electrical Sparks and Arcs
The production of any spark in an oxygen rich, enclosed environment

The authors propose an engineering solution for a wheel pair with a counter-flange that satisfies the existing standards of vertical and horizontal dynamics and the movement stability index. An improved profile of a rail wheel with a counter-flange is developed. It provides additional contact in the horizontal plane in the situation of transverse vibrations of the wheel pair against the rail track, adds to carriage stability and increases the wheel’s resistance to derailment when passing a

The carriage of food products, in particular fresh products, is particularly sensitive to transport conditions. The aim of this paper is to examine the effect of trailer conditions on the quality of refrigerated food transport services. Six wireless measuring devices installed permanently in 3 trailers were used for the analysis. The built-in transmitter sensors have enabled the collection of data in the areas of temperature, humidity, pressure, shock and light intensity. Monitoring parameters

Quality has a fundamental influence to the services in passenger transport. The main objective of transport is to satisfy customers’ (passengers’) requirements on the qualitative, flexible, fast and safe carriage of people and goods. Organisers of transport (public authority), providers of transport services and their customers have a different view on the perception of quality. This fact is influenced by unsystematic assessment to the quality measurement as well as by ignorance of the

Invasiveness of alien turtles results from their impact on the functioning of the local ecosystem. It is due to predation on or competing with resident species, but also transfer of new and unknown pathogenic bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi. Salmonella is the most often reported microorganism, both in free-living and captive turtles. Zoonotic aspect of Salmonella spp. carriage has led to the definition of RAS (Reptile Associated Salmonellosis) acquired from domestic pet reptiles

The year 1956 is a significant milestone in international road freight transport. The CMR International Convention was adopted this year. The reason for its adoption was to unify the rules in international road freight transport in connection with the contract of carriage. This step was very important not only for carrier but also for the consignee and consignor. The convention also characterized one of the most important documents in road freight transport, which accompanies goods throughout
