PURPOSE: This study aimed to determine if there are any associations between serum levels of inflammatory markers and proliferative retinopathy (PDR) in type 1 diabetic patients. DESIGN: A cross-sectional design was utilized for this study. METHODS: One hundred twenty-eight type 1 diabetic patients underwent stereo fundus photography according to the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study and
Cash Flow-at-Risk (CFaR) is a risk measure that conveys information on the shortfall in cash flow, associated with a certain probability, a firm could experience over a certain time period. However, to provide information on outcomes that are identified as costly by the risk management literature, in particular underinvestment due to financing constraints, a risk measure needs to make explicit ref
Objective: A prospective evaluation of the long-term effects of early menopause on mortality, risk of fragility fracture and osteoporosis. Design: Prospective population-based observational study. Setting Malmö, Sweden. Population A total of 390 white north European women aged 48 years at the start of the study. Methods: At baseline, bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by single-photon abs
Abstract Conclusion: In this physiological study subjects with Meniere's disease (MD) had high resistance to opening of the eustachian tube (ET) in three of four provocation tests. These subjects can be exposed to pressure deviations in the middle ear (ME) above their equalizing capacity. Transmission of the pressure deviations to the inner ear fluids and influence of the symptoms of MD are feasib

The objective of this study was to provide data for the design of multi-nozzle impactors giving size-fractionated samples for X-ray emission analysis and for size-distribution determinations of the α-particle activity from aerosol-particle-attached radon progenies. Different multi-nozzle impactors with laser-drilled 50–60 μm diameter nozzles designed for a cut-off diameter of about 0.05 μm were ex
The underlying basis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and the basis of its increased incidence in diabetes are unknown. We have quantified pathology in an uncompressed nerve (posterior interosseous nerve, PIN) in the forearm between diabetic and non-diabetic patients with CTS and control subjects. In an age- and gender-matched series, 26 diabetic patients with CTS and 20 non-diabetic patients with
