A 76-year-old male was diagnosed to have diabetes mellitus at 57 years of age and oral hypoglycemic agents were started. Aspart, a human insulin analogue, was initiated because of a poor glycemic control in July 2009, at 74 years of age. He complained of dizziness and faintness caused by hypoglycemia in the early morning and afternoon. He was admitted to another hospital in August 2010; his plasma
Dendritic cells (DCs) with capacity of antigen cross-presentation are of key interest for immunotherapy against cancer as they can induce antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses. This study describes frequencies of DC subtypes in human tonsils and lymph nodes, and phenotypic aspects that may be targeted by adjuvant measures. From human tonsils and neck lymph nodes, DCs were identif
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major public health threat in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Phylogenetic analysis of HBV can be helpful to study the putative transmission links and patterns of inter-country spread of the virus. The objectives of the current study were to analyze the HBV genotype/sub-genotype (SGT) distribution, reverse transcriptase (RT), and surface (S) gen
This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the in vitro, animal, and clinical studies with the bacterial strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v (L. plantarum 299v; formerly named Lactobacillus plantarum 299v) published up until June 30, 2020. L. plantarum 299v is the most documented L. plantarum strain in the world, described in over 170 scientific publications out of which more th
Denna avhandling undersöker vardagen på två dagliga verksamheter inom psykiatrin i Köpenhamns kommun. Mer specifikt fokuserar avhandlingen patienternas kommunikation och beteenden samt den stigmatisering de upplever från omvärlden. Det empiriska materialet bygger på tre års deltagande observationer. De stadsdelar som de två verksamheterna låg i befann sig i var sin ände av kommunens socioekonomiskThis dissertation looks into everyday life at two day-care centres of community psychiatry in the municipality of Copenhagen. More specifically, it is about the patients' communication and behaviour, and about the stigmatization fromthe outer world they experience. The empirical material is based on three years of participant observation. The two daycare centres and their districts were situated i
The global effects of climate change will increase the frequency and intensity of extreme events such as heatwaves and power outages, which have consequences for buildings and their cooling systems. Buildings and their cooling systems should be designed and operated to be resilient under such events to protect occupants from potentially dangerous indoor thermal conditions. This study performed a c
BACKGROUND: The Predicting Bleeding Complications in Patients Undergoing Stent Implantation and Subsequent Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (PRECISE-DAPT) score has been shown to predict out-of-hospital major bleeding after myocardial infarction treated with percutaneous coronary intervention and dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). However, large validation studies have been scarce and the discriminative a
Purpose: To explore school-aged children's experiences about their best interests and participation in care during a hospital admission. Design and methods: A descriptive qualitative design involving in-depth, iterative inductive review of child responses to generate key words that led to identification of categories and themes. The study was guided by the United Nations Convention on the Rights o
The ESS elliptical superconducting Linac consists of two types of 704.42 MHz cavities, medium and high beta, to accelerate the beam from 216 MeV (spoke cavity Linac) up to the final energy at 2 GeV. The last Linac optimization, called Optimus+[1], has been carried out taking into account the limitations of SRF cavity performance (field emission). The medium and high-beta parts of the Linac are com

Oil-in-water emulsions containing N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (DEET) were developed aiming to extend the sustained release of the active compound, by using two oppositely charged nanomaterials, namely silica nanoparticles (SiNP) and cationic cellulose nanofibrils (CCNF), as stabilizers, and a mixture of food-grade nonionic surfactants to avoid precipitation by electrostatic aggregation. The form
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) directly convert chemical energy to electricity with high electrical efficiency. It involves gas transport through the porous electrode to the three-phase boundaries (TPB). The tortuosity of gas transport relates the bulk diffusion of gas in free space to the effective diffusion coefficient of gas migrating through a porous material. Therefore, determining the tortuo
We formulate a version of the low-scale Majoron model equipped with an inverse seesaw mechanism featuring lepton-number preserving dimension-6 operators in the scalar potential. Contrary to its dimension-4 counterpart, we find that the model can simultaneously provide light and ultralight Majorons, neutrino masses and their mixing, while featuring strong first-order cosmological phase transitions
Comparing 3D neutron and X-ray microtomography (NCT and XCT) results of fully pyrolyzed and pristine samples, we observed that the contrast in the neutron images increased for the carbonized samples, suggesting that H would be concentrated at the surface of the carbonized material structure.
BACKGROUND: Prolonged opioid use (more than 90 days) after injury puts the patient at risk for adverse effects. We investigated the patterns of opioid prescription after distal radius fracture and the effect of pre- and post-fracture factors on the risk for prolonged use.METHODS: This register-based cohort study uses routinely collected health care data, including purchases of prescription opioids
Lung cancer is primarily a disease of the elderly, with a median age at diagnosis around 70 years. In our study we sought to address the question of whether and how clinical characteristics, molecular alterations and molecular phenotypes differ between patient populations with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (AC) with respect to age at diagnosis. Patients were stratified based on age at diagnosis
