Background: Factor VIII (FVIII) trough levels > 1 IU/dL in patients with severe hemophilia A receiving regular prophylaxis may optimize bleed protection. Objectives: In this post hoc analysis of patients receiving tertiary prophylaxis for approximately 1 year, the relationship between estimated FVIII levels and reported bleeds was investigated to predict the potential for zero bleeds. Methods: Six

Wheat flour and cane sugar were partially substituted (50 and 75%) by a mango-processing by-product (MPB) as an added-value food ingredient in muffins. Their sensory analysis, chemical composition, antioxidant activity and in vitro starch hydrolysis properties were studied. Sensory analysis showed statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between control and muffins 75% MPB substituted level

Despite advances in targeted therapies, the treatment of advanced melanoma remains an exercise in disease management, hence a need for biomarkers for identification of at risk primary melanoma patients. In this study we aimed to assess the prognostic value of TERT promoter mutations in primary melanomas. DNA from 300 patients with stage I/II melanoma was sequenced for TERT promoter and BRAF/NRAS m

Patients with haemophilia A (and their physicians) may be reluctant to switch factor VIII (FVIII) concentrates, often due to concerns about increasing the risk of inhibitors; this reluctance to switch may contribute to patients missing the clinical benefits provided by the arrival of new factor VIII products. This topic was explored at the Eleventh Zurich Haemophilia Forum. Clinical scenarios for

The authors compared dietary pattern methods-cluster analysis, factor analysis, and index analysis-with colorectal cancer risk in the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-AARP Diet and Health Study (n = 492,306). Data from a 124-item food frequency questionnaire (1995-1996) were used to identify 4 clusters for men (3 clusters for women), 3 factors, and 4 indexes. Comparisons were made with adjusted

In this work we show how hydrodynamic forces can be used to locally trap molecules in a supported lipid bilayer (SLB). The method uses the hydrodynamic drag forces arising from a flow through a conical pipette with a tip radius of 1-1.5 mu m, placed approximately 1 mu m above the investigated SLB. This results in a localized force-field that acts on molecules protruding from the SLB, yielding a hy

For patients with end-stage heart failure, the use of mechanical circulatory support has increased in the last decade due to improved outcomes with durable left ventricular assist devices. The management of these complex patients requires coordinated care by a multidisciplinary team including cardiac electrophysiologists because atrial and ventricular arrhythmias are prevalent in this population.

The causal association of NUDT1 (=MTH1) and OGG1 with hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. Here, we sought to provide additional evidence for or against the causal contribution of NUDT1 and OGG1 mutations to hereditary CRC and/or polyposis. Mutational screening was performed using pooled DNA amplification and targeted next-generation sequencing in 529 families (441 uncharacterized M

Field-grown genetically engineered and wild-type poplars were pyrolyzed in a micro-pyrolysis (Py-GC/MS) setup under fast pyrolysis conditions. Poplars (Populus tremula x P. alba) down-regulated for cinnamoyl-CoA reductase (CCR), which catalyzes the first step of the monolignol-specific branch of the phenylpropanoid biosynthetic pathway, were grown in field trials in France and harvested after a fu

The latest edition of the Swiss standard SIA181(2006) Protection against noise in Buildings [1], introduces a new methodology regarding the tests to be performed in new constructions for noise induced by human using service equipment in bathroom and kitchen. In this method, a specific pendling hammer has been developed especially for evaluating the decoupling efficiency of service equipment. The g

För att minska och försöka eliminera utsläppen av koldioxid från byggsektorn krävs alternativ till dagens metod att skapa önskad funktion genom att riva befintliga byggnader följt av nyproduktion. Nyproduktion av byggnader medför stora klimatbelastande utsläpp kopplade till framställning av nya produkter och material, men även kopplat till rivnings- och nybyggnadsprocessen. Samtidigt är en del av Decarbonisation of the built environment requires alternatives to the prevailing practice of demolition followed by new construction. The new production of buildings adds upfront embodied emissions, while much of the non-residential stock remains underutilised, and housing demand remains high. Adaptive reuse, the practice of converting existing buildings for new functions, preserves the building's

Background: Hemophilia B is a genetic bleeding disorder caused by a deficiency of clotting factor IX, which presents unique challenges in clinical management. Advances in therapeutic strategies for hemophilia B have significantly improved patient outcomes but have also necessitated ongoing education for healthcare professionals. This illustrated review provides an overview of the challenges and op

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are likely to see a significant increase in the requests for rapid assessment of cardiac function, due to the frequent pre-existence of cardiac pathologies in patients admitted to hospital, and to the emergence of specific cardiac manifestations of this infection, such as myocarditis, sepsis related cardiomyopathy, stress induced cardiomyopathy and acute coronary s

Land surface models are used to provide global estimates of soil organic carbon (SOC) changes after past and future change land use change (LUC), in particular re-/deforestation. To evaluate how well the models capture decadal-scale changes in SOC after LUC, we provide the first consistent comparison of simulated time series of LUC by six land models all of which participated in the coupled model

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have linked transportation noise and cardiovascular diseases, however, atrial fibrillation (AF) has received limited attention. We aimed to investigate the association between transportation noise and AF risk.METHODS: Over the period 1990-2017 we estimated road and railway noise (Lden) at the most and least exposed façades for all residential addresses across De

Purpose: To achieve the high sensitivity of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), a time-consuming reading is necessary. However, synthetic mammography (SM) images, equivalent to digital mammography (DM), can be generated from DBT images. SM is faster to read and might be sufficient in many cases. We investigate using artificial intelligence (AI) to stratify examinations into reading of either SM or
