Does mood influence the realism of confidence judgments?

In this study we investigated how mood influences the degree of realism in participants’ confidence judgments (based on an episodic memory task). Using music and film in combination, we successfully induced half of the participants into an elated mood, but failed to induce a sad mood in the other half. Contrary to our prediction, our data indicated that there was no difference in the realism of th

Anxiety as a factor influencing satisfaction with emergency department care: perspectives of accompanying persons.

Aim. To measure levels of anxiety among people accompanying consumers to the emergency department and to explore how anxiety influences satisfaction with care. Background. When people seek treatment in an emergency department they are often accompanied by a next-of-kin, family member or friend. While the accompanying person plays a vital role in providing psycho-social support to consumers, little

'Arzteführerschule Alt-Rehse'--the main educational centre for promotion of Nazi medicine ideology in Germany during 1935 - 1943.

In Nazi Germany 1933-1945 the medical profession played an important role, not only within the health sector but also for ideological purposes. Some physicians committed criminal acts during the war, for example in concentration camps, and where later put on trial at the Nuremberg Trials in 1946-1947, some of them also sentenced to death. What is little known outside Germany is the existence of a

Assessment of the risk of heat disorders encountered during work in hot conditions

Objective: To co-ordinate the work of the main European research teams in the field of thermal factors in order to develop and improve significantly the methods presently available for assessing the risks of heat disorders encountered during work in hot conditions. Method: Each item from the required sweat rate model was reviewed on the basis of the most recent literature. A database with 1,113 la

Increased serum COMP predicts mortality in SSc: results from a longitudinal study of interstitial lung disease.

Objectives. COMP is a regulator of assembly and maintenance of the fibrillar collagen I and II networks. Serum COMP reflects skin fibrosis in SSc. The purpose of this study was to examine whether serum COMP reflects fibrotic lung involvement in SSc patients and to study if serum COMP predicts mortality.Methods. Three overlapping cohorts of 244 SSc patients were studied. Two hundred and eighteen pa

Water Interactions with Acetic Acid Layers on Ice and Graphite

Adsorbed organic compounds modify the properties of environmental interfaces with potential implications for many Earth system processes. Here, we describe experimental studies of water interactions with acetic acid (AcOH) layers on ice and graphite surfaces at temperatures from 186 to 200 K. Hyperthermal D2O water molecules are efficiently trapped on all of the investigated surfaces, with only a

Polysaccharide-K (PSK) in Cancer : Old Story, New Possibilities?

Polysaccharide-K (PSK, Krestin) is one of the most commonly used medicinal mushroom extracts with a long history as an additive in cancer therapy in Asia, especially in Japan. PSK has a documented anti-tumor activity both in vitro and in vitro, in various types of cancers, including colorectal, gastric, breast, liver, pancreatic, and lung cancer. Despite PSK having been studied for about 40 years

Liquid-jet target for laser-plasma soft x-ray generation

We describe a new liquid-target system for low-debris laser-plasma soft x-ray sources. The system is based on a microscopic liquid jet and is experimentally evaluated for 0.7-1 keV proximity lithography and water-window x-ray microscopy applications. Compared to an existing liquid-droplet target, this target system has the same low debris emission, high x-ray photon flux, and narrow spectral bandw
