Association Between Neighborhood Deprivation and Heart Failure Among Patients With Diabetes Mellitus : A 10-Year Follow-Up Study in Sweden

Background: Our aim was to study the potential effect of neighborhood deprivation on incident heart failure (HF) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods: The study population included adults (n = 434,542) aged 30 years or older with DM followed from 2005 to 2015 in Sweden for incident HF. The association between neighborhood deprivation and the outcome was explored using Cox regression an

Divisible, Contingent and Parochial? : The instrumentality of EU fundamental rights

Human rights are meant to be universal, indivisible, and inalienable. They are legal norms that claim to reflect urgent moral concerns, and to protect human beings by mere virtue of their humanity. As such they are held to be universal, in that they apply to all human beings regardless of their background and nationality; they are inalienable, in that all human beings are born with them and they c

The host defense peptide LL-37 is internalized by human periodontal ligament cells and prevents LPS-induced MCP-1 production

Objective: The human host defense peptide LL-37 both shows antimicrobial effects and modulates host cell properties. Here, we assess the effects of synthesized LL-37 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells and investigates underlying mechanisms. Background: LL-37 has been detected in the periodontal tissues, but its functional importance for PDL c

Seeing the forest for the trees : Identifying discursive convergence and dominance in complex redd+ governance

Scholars of international law and international relations largely agree that global governance today, and global environmental governance in particular, is marked by institutional complexity. Environmental policy fields are, to varying degrees, governed by a plurality of institutions with different levels of legalization, membership, and jurisdictional scope, and with different degrees of coherenc

Ethanol and erythrocyte membrane interaction: a hemorheologic perspective.

Previous studies have documented structural and functional changes induced by ethanol-erythrocyte membrane interaction. In order to perform an in vitro study on the effect of different ethanol concentrations on erythrocyte hemorheologic properties, blood samples were collected from 21 male donors at the Hospital of Santa Maria. Whole blood aliquots were incubated with ethanol solutions of rising c

Global and domain-specific life satisfaction among older adults with long-term spinal cord injury

Objective: Although life expectancy after spinal cord injury (SCI) has increased, knowledge of life satisfaction and associated factors among older adults with long-term SCI is still very limited. The objective of this study was, therefore, to assess global and domain-specific life satisfaction among older adults with long-term SCI and investigate the association with sociodemographics, injury cha

International multi-institutional bench mark study on dosimetric and volumetric modulation using helical tomotherapy treatment planning for malignant pleural mesothelioma tumors

Determining the most desirable and achievable target dose and organ at risk (OAR) sparing using helical TomoTherapy planning system for mesothelioma treatment plans. A range of planning parameters was used. The reviewers’ ranking assessment (Ranking in Groups: 1 = Good, 2 = Above Average, 3 = Average, 4 = Poor).The overall rankings revealed that a plan with a balanced tradeoff among all planning o
