PDF generated at: Wed, 26 Aug 2009 16:14:57 UTC Contents Articles Viral load 1 Fantastic Voyage 3 B movie 10 Blight 39 References Article Sources and Contributors 40 Image Sources, Licenses and Contributors 41 Article Licenses License 42 Viral load 1 Viral load Viral load is a measure of the severity of a viral infection, and can be calculated by estimating the amount of virus in an involved body fluid. For example, it can be given in RNA copies per milliliter of blood plasma. Determination of viral load is part of the therapy monitoring during chronic viral infections, and in immunocompromised patients such as those recovering from bone marrow or solid organ transplantation. Currently, routine testing is available for HIV-1, cytomegalovirus, hepatitis B virus, and hepatitis C virus. HIV viral load test Several different HIV viral load tests have been developed, and three are currently approved for use in the US: • Amplicor HIV-1 Monitor test (Hoffman-La Roche), better known as the PCR test • NucliSens HIV-1 QT, or NASBA (bioMerieux) • Versant/Quantiplex HIV-1 RNA, or bDNA (Chiron/Bayer) These tests have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States for use in monitoring the health of people with HIV, in conjunction with other markers. Higher numbers in the viral load tests indicate an increased risk of getting sick from opportunistic diseases. These tests are also approved for monitoring the effects of anti-HIV therapy, to track viral suppression and detect treatment failure.

  • What to Do Till the Doctor Comes? Frank Capra E a Grande Depressão
    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS What to do till the doctor comes? Frank Capra e a Grande Depressão José Manuel Manta MESTRADO EM ESTUDOS INGLESES E AMERICANOS ESPECIALIZAÇÃO EM ESTUDOS DE CULTURA 2015 UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS What to do till the doctor comes? Frank Capra e a Grande Depressão José Manuel Manta MESTRADO EM ESTUDOS INGLESES E AMERICANOS ESPECIALIZAÇÃO EM ESTUDOS DE CULTURA DISSERTAÇÃO ORIENTADA PELO PROFESSOR DOUTOR MÁRIO JORGE TORRES 2015 2 Agradecimentos Aos amigos e aos colegas de mestrado, em particular ao Zé e ao Ricardo, porque como em Doe, Smith e Deeds a incerteza nunca os demoveu; aos meus pais, pelo afeto; aos professores que encontrei na FLUL, pelo exemplo; ao Professor Mário Jorge Torres, por ter sido o interlocutor para quem esta dissertação foi sendo escrita, pelo desafio acrescido que isso representou. 3 Resumo Nenhum outro realizador a trabalhar em Hollywood durante os anos 30 do século XX alcançou maior notoriedade do que Frank Capra. A sua biografia, tão parecida com as histórias de rags to riches, parece coexistir com as narrativas ilustradas em alguns dos seus filmes mais perenes. No entanto, apesar de todo este sucesso, a carreira de Frank Capra seria relativamente curta e, sobretudo, quase exclusivamente associada à década da Grande Depressão. A elaboração deste trabalho tem por objetivo articular a história pessoal de Frank Capra com as histórias da Grande Depressão, utilizando os filmes que dirigiu durante essa década e, neste processo, tornar aparentes alguns dos motivos para o sucesso do realizador durante os anos 30. Palavras-chave: Frank Capra, Robert Riskin, Grande Depressão, Hollywood.
