norA
Most likely, this is -> norA (a genetic mutation of the bacterial strain).

Es geht bei den Streptokokken mit norA speziell um eine chromosomal kodierte Effluxpumpe (= Chinolonresistenz) -> http://www.wissenschaftliche-verlagsgesellschaft.de/CTJ/CTJ2...

Sorry, es geht um Staphylokokken bei dieser Art der Resistenz, nicht Streptokokken!
Mein confidence level korrigiere ich hiermit von 4 auf 2! :-)

Außerdem ist die Platzierung vorn mit dem Doppelpunkt eher seltsam in dieser Aufstellung.

NORA müsste eine Abkürzung für einen Abstrich sein (im Gegensatz zur Blutkultur) - würde jetzt gern das Obenstehende löschen ... -, und zwar mit "oropharynx" o.ä., bzw. R -> Rachen. (s. S. 95: http://www.medlab-pdm.de/filesv/mlp_handbuch.pdf )
also: Nasen-(Mund-)Rachen-Abstrich, maybe *nasal - oral - respiratory? swab*

Normalized residual activity and output efficiency in case of early furosemide injection in children.
Cécile Nogarède, Marianne Tondeur, Amy Piepsz
Department of Radioisotopes, CHU St Pierre, Brussels, Belgium.
OBJECTIVE: Values for output efficiency (OE) and** normalized residual activity (NORA) in paediatric patients ** have been published previously. However, it is now a usual practice to inject furosemide at the beginning of a renogram acquisition (F0 procedure). The aim was to evaluate OE and NORA obtained on F0 renograms, in normal and abnormal paediatric kidneys. METHODS: Three groups of kidneys were selected: group 1, normal kidneys (n=155); group 2, dilated but unobstructed kidneys (n=20); and group 3, hydronephrotic kidneys (n=84). A 20-min Tc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine renogram was obtained under early furosemide injection (F0) and was completed by late postmicturition (PM) images. OE and NORA were calculated at the end of the renogram and on the PM images. RESULTS: Group 1: NORA and OE calculated at the end of the F0 renogram revealed better drainage than without F0 stimulation.
