Fatigue is common among adolescent girls, and iron deficiency is often considered a potential contributing factor. However, the association between iron status and self-reported fatigue in this population remains insufficiently understood. In a cross-sectional study of 485 post-menarchal girls aged 15-19 years, we examined associations between iron status, menstrual health, lifestyle factors, fati

Most of the Danish Jews who did not manage to escape to Sweden in the Autumn of 1943 were deported to this ghetto, which also functioned as a concentration camp.

OBJECT: Accurate differentiation between glioblastomas (GBM) and solitary brain metastases (MET) is crucial for treatment planning. This study evaluated the ability of amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) MRI with and without fluid suppression (FS) to distinguish between GBM and MET.METHOD: Thirty-two patients with histopathologically confirmed GBM (n = 24) or MET (n = 8) were included. Post-proc

A recent and compelling discussion advanced understandings of political imagination and social change, calling for sociology to have a greater role in analysing the dynamics between them. The present article addresses this discussion through exploring Bruno Latour’s agency and New Climatic Regime concepts with regard to potential critical analyses of discourse surrounding the environmental and cli

Biosensors represent a promising approach for rapid therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of β-lactam antibiotics. However, no single biosensor strategy has yet been established to cover all four major β-lactam classes: penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and monobactams. Recently, an enzyme thermistor biosensor using New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) as the biorecognition element enabled

The last decades have seen rising economic polarisation, often portrayed as a dichotomy between unequal yet successful metropolitan regions and ‘left behind’, poorer and predominantly smaller regions. However, there is also an argument for a more complex picture in which regions transition between economic growth and decline. This paper explores the long-term evolution of regional wage structures
