Cycling standing up allows for greater power output in the short run because of the application of body weight to forward motion. [7] [8] People whose bodies are lighter suffer lower efficiency cost from standing up, thus lighter professional riders such as Alberto Contador are more often seen standing up. [9] [5]
Rifampicin, also known as rifampin, is an ansamycin antibiotic used to treat several types of bacterial infections, including tuberculosis (TB), Mycobacterium avium complex, leprosy, and Legionnaires' disease. [3]
Rifampin rapidly kills fast-dividing bacilli strains as well as "persisters" cells, which remain biologically inactive for long periods of time that allow them to evade antibiotic activity. [7] In addition, rifabutin and rifapentine have both been used against tuberculosis acquired in HIV-positive patients.
Isoniazid/rifampicin, also known as isoniazid/rifampin, is a medication used to treat tuberculosis. [1] It is a fixed dose combination of isoniazid and rifampicin (rifampin). [1] It is used together with other antituberculosis medication. [1] It is taken by mouth. [1] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. [2]
Rifapentine, sold under the brand name Priftin, is an antibiotic used in the treatment of tuberculosis. [2] In active tuberculosis it is used together with other antituberculosis medications. [2] In latent tuberculosis it is typically used with isoniazid. [2] It is taken by mouth. [2]
Following a 40-year break in discovering classes of antibacterial compounds, four new classes of antibiotics were introduced to clinical use in the late 2000s and early 2010s: cyclic lipopeptides (such as daptomycin), glycylcyclines (such as tigecycline), oxazolidinones (such as linezolid), and lipiarmycins (such as fidaxomicin).
[5] Even common herbs and vegetables like rau răm (Vietnamese coriander), kinh giới (Vietnamese balm), cải cúc (crowndaisy), rau muống (water spinach) [6] are used. [7] The flowers of Magnolia champaca, Jasminum sambac are also employed for their pharmacologic properties. Animal products like silkworms are infrequently used. [8]
It includes a saddle, pedals, and some form of handlebars arranged as on a (stationary) bicycle. [1] [2] A stationary bicycle is usually a special-purpose exercise machine resembling a bicycle without wheels. [citation needed] It is also possible to adapt an ordinary bicycle for stationary exercise by placing it on bicycle rollers or a trainer.
