The skin microbiome undergoes dynamic changes during different phases of wound healing, however the role of bacteria in the wound healing process remains poorly described. In this study, we aimed to determine how wound bacteria develop over time in epidermal wounds, and how they interact with inflammatory processes during wound healing. To this end, we analyzed wound fluid and swab samples collect
Introduction Modern systemic treatment has reduced incidence of regional recurrences and improved survival in breast cancer (BC). It is thus questionable whether regional radiotherapy (RT) is still beneficial in patients with sentinel lymph node (SLN) macrometastasis. Postoperative regional RT is associated with an increased risk of arm morbidity, pneumonitis, cardiac disease and secondary cancer.
Recently impressive weight loss has been reported for novel incretin therapies based on dual-and triple-hormone receptor coagonists. These agents have potential as being positioned as early therapeutics for metabolic diseases for which weight loss is preferred, such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and nonalcoholic liver disease. This development will change the landscape of f
Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACE) can have negative effects on cognitive, social and emotion regulation abilities, which can threaten the child’s school integration and capacity to learn. While steady relations to sensitive, understanding adults may moderate these negative outcomes, the difficulties of children with ACEs pose a major challenge for teachers, whose insufficient prepara
Modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease include overweight, which is prevented by healthy diet and physical activity. Recently settled migrants may have varying levels of exposure to health information. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to explore the associations between self-reported information on healthy diet and on physical activity and overweight and the possible modifi
BACKGROUND: The cross-sectional association between cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (SctO 2) and heart failure (HF) has been previously studied, but the prognostic significance of SctO 2 in HF remains uncertain. This study aimed to assess the role of SctO 2 as a risk factor for all-cause mortality and rehospitalisation, as well as to explore the cross-sectional association between physical ac
The use of natural gas is increasing globally. At the same time, the cheap and easily accessible resources are decreasing rapidly. Among other alternative gases, biogas is considered since it is a renewable resource. In order for biogas to really become a large scale alternative, it needs to be fully compatible with today’s infrastructure and gas applications. This report is evaluating the technic
Phosphorus (P) is a limiting nutrient to production in various agricultural ecosystems and many soils contain large amounts of legacy P that is strongly adsorbed on iron (Fe) and aluminum oxides and therefore poorly available to plants. Here we investigate how much mineral-bound P is mobilized in different cropping systems and the influence of agronomic practices on this process. Root ingrowth cor
Objectives While Mycoplasma genitalium is reported as a common rectal infection among men who have sex with men (MSM), published data refer predominantly to urethral infections. Currently, most guidelines recommend M. genitalium testing from urine in men with symptomatic, non-gonococcal urethritis. Macrolide resistance-associated mutations (MRMs) among M. genitalium have increased during the last
