Importance: Reflex syncope is the major cause of transient loss of consciousness, which affects one-third of the population, but effective treatment for individuals with severe syncope is lacking. Better understanding of reflex syncope predisposition may offer new therapeutic solutions.Objectives: To determine the familial risk of syncope in first-, second-, and third-degree relatives of affected
Background: Chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) is one of the most common neurosurgical diseases. A subtype of CSDH is bilateral chronic subdural haematoma (bCSDH) which represents 20-25% of patients with CSDH and has a higher recurrence rate. There is no clear consensus on how bCSDH should be treated regarding upfront unilateral- or bilateral evacuation of both haematomas. The purpose of this study
Absorption of x-ray photons by atomic inner shells of light-element organics and biomolecules often leads to formation of dicationic electronic states and to molecular fragmentation. We investigated the x-ray-induced dissociation landscape of a representative medium-sized organic molecule, thiophene, by femtosecond x-ray pulses from the Super Photon Ring-8 GeV (SPring-8) Angstrom Compact Free-Elec
Definition of older age in AML is arbitrary. In the context of the clinical studies, it starts with age ≥ 60 or ≥65 years and in recent years ≥70 or 75, depending on the selection of the studied population. In clinical practice, with older age we often mean that the patient is unfit for intensive chemotherapy. Higher age overlaps with categories such as worse performance status, unfitness, co-morb
The paper demonstrates improved structural low-frequency vibroacoustic performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT) floor panels by informed selection of the wood material. The use of wood species and strength classes that are not traditionally assigned to CLT panels was investigated in order to study their influence on dynamic characteristics and vibroacoustic response metrics. The potential of ea
