CONTEXT: Tuberculosis (TB) is an increasing global problem, despite effective drug therapies. Access to TB therapy during conflict situations has not been studied. OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of irregular TB treatment due to an armed conflict in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS: Ongoing retrospective cohort study conducted in the capital city of Bissau among 101 pat

The cetrarioid core group has been the focus of numerous taxonomic and phylogenetic studies in recent years, yet the phylogenetic resolution and support among these clades remains unclear. Here we use four commonly employed loci to estimate if their use increases phylogenetic resolution and support. The present study largely confirms the topologies of previous studies, but with increased support.

OBJECTIVE:: Emerging evidence suggests that women with vasomotor menopausal symptoms (VMS) may have an adverse cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk profile. We investigated whether VMS are related to an increased risk of future coronary heart disease (CHD) and whether possible associations can be explained by CVD risk factors. METHODS:: Data used were from a Dutch and Swedish population-based sample

Background: The pathophysiology of neurodegeneration is complex. Its diagnosis requires an early identification of sequential changes in several hallmarks in the brains of affected subjects. The presence of brain pathology can be visualized in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by protein profiling. It is clear that the field of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) will benefit from an integration of algorithms in

Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is a widely consumed tropical fruit. UV-C irradiation reduces the microbial load of fruits and contributes to the increase their content of phenolic compounds (PCs). Snack-bars were prepared batch using UV-C irradiated pineapple slices (irradiated pineapple bar, IPB) or with non-irradiated pineapple slices (non-irradiated pineapple bar, NIPB). Both snacks-bar samples wer

AIMS: Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) we investigated the cortical and subcortical representations during bladder filling and the effect of simultaneous stimulation of the dorsal clitoral nerve on these cortical and subcortical structures.METHODS: After approval of the local ethics committee, 8 healthy females were included. Prior to scanning, subjects were catheterized and the

Hushållen står för cirka 26 % av den årliga energianvändningen i EU. Som följd av EU:s direktiv om energiprestanda i byggnader har det genomförts internationella initiativ i Europa för att hjälpa länder att definiera och inkludera riktlinjer i sina egna byggregler, till exempel för att etablera konceptet nollenergibyggnader. Detta koncept inkluderar passiv-teknik for energibesparande byggande, eneHouseholds are responsible for approximately 26 % of the annual energy use in the EU. Following the EU-directives regarding energy performance in buildings, international initiatives have been taken in Europe to help countries to define and include guidelines in their own building codes, for example, to establish the concept of zero energy buildings, ZEBs. This concept includes passive building en

A simplified combined-slip model that only considers the extreme case at the friction limit is suggested and used in a closed-loop controller for autonomous vehicle handling in at-the-limit maneuvers. In the development of the controller it is assumed that the front wheels are individually steered, but it is demonstrated in a left-hand turn scenario that with a simple adaptation, the method is sti

A molecular motor potentially performing a continuous unidirectional rotation is studied by a multidisciplinary approach including organic synthesis, transient spectroscopy and excited state trajectory calculations. A stereogenic center was introduced in the N-alkylated indanylidene-pyrroline Schiff base framework of a previously investigated light-driven molecular switch in order to achieve the u

Background: The Stanford integrated psychosocial assessment for transplantation (SIPAT) is a validated psychosocial evaluation tool in the transplant population. Objective: We evaluated SIPAT in predicting post-left ventricular assist device (LVAD) outcomes, including cumulative re-admissions, driveline infections, pump malfunction, pump thrombosis, gastrointestinal bleeding, major bleeding, strok

Liposomes are biodegradable nanoparticle vesicles consisting of a lipid bilayer encapsulating an aqueous core. Entrapped cargo material is shielded from the extra-vesicular medium and sustained release of encapsulated material can be achieved. However, application of liposomes as nano-carriers demands their characterization concerning size and size distribution, particle-number concentration, occu

Trenden i samhällsbyggnadsbranschen visar på ett ökat intresse för innovation. Tidigare forskning har primärt fokuserats på produkt- och processutveckling, där forskningen kring tjänsteinnovation ännu inte fått genomslag. Konsultföretag beskrivs samtidigt som pådrivare av innovation. Detta har öppnat upp för vidare forskning kring hur konsultföretag, som erbjuder tjänster inom förändringsledning i

In today’s fast moving business environment, organisational change is considered a key requisite to remain competitive, however, organisational change can be a double-edged sword as it can create difficulties for individuals in their identity work carried out in the organisation. Moreover, how individuals conduct their identity work in an organisation can amongst other factors be affected by disco

Background: Although diet has long been suspected as an etiological factor for colorectal cancer, studies of single foods and nutrients have provided inconsistent results. Objective: We used factor analysis methods to study associations between dietary patterns and colorectal cancer in middle-aged Americans. Design: Diet was assessed among 293 615 men and 198 767 women in the National Institutes o
