Of the patients presenting with intraocular pressure (IOP) below 30 mmHg, 3/29 (10%) needed subsequent cyclodiode laser therapy compared to 35/43 (81%) patients with a baseline IOP above 30 mmHg (p less then 0.001). Conclusions In a clinical setting, many patients show evidence of NE already at the first visit. A substantial part of patients…[Lees meer]

The highly polarized morphology of neurons is crucial for their function and involves formation of two distinct types of cellular extensions, the axonal and dendritic compartments. An important effector required for the morphogenesis and maintenance and thus the identity of axons and dendrites is the microtubule cytoskeleton. Microtubules in axons…[Lees meer]

UV-LED curable coatings represent an up-to-date attractive field due to the high curing efficiency even in the presence of high filler loadings, as well as to the absence of infrared wavelengths that may negatively impact on heat-sensitive substrates. The addition of carbonaceous materials, such as biochar (BC) and/or multiwalled carbon nanotubes…[Lees meer]

To investigate the clinical relevance of germline SMARCB1 mutation in AT/RT patients, we performed sequence analysis of the coding regions. The two patients with AT/RT were found to have germline SMARCB1 mutations. No BRAF mutations were found, and only NTRK gene fusion was present in one patient. We also have examined the association with OS and…[Lees meer]

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of liver cancer worldwide and carries a poor prognosis. Historically, sorafenib was the only available systemic treatment for advanced HCC. However, in recent years, 6 new treatments have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regorafenib, lenvatinib, cabozantinib,…[Lees meer]

According to qPCR results, Staphylococcus aureus (24·24%) was predominated in animal pyogenic infections, whereas Klebsiella pneumonia (31·81%) was commonly detected in neonatal sepsis.

Saponin combined with DNase-1 allowed the efficient recovery of microbial DNA from blood and pus samples in sepsis using qPCR assay.

Metagenomic q…[Lees meer]

Health-care workers are an important vaccination target group, they are more frequently exposed to infectious diseases and can contribute to nosocomial infections. We established a country-wide online monitoring system to estimate influenza vaccine uptake and its determinants among German hospital staff (OKaPII). The online questionnaire included…[Lees meer]

Lysine demethylase 3A (

) has been increasingly recognized as an important epigenetic regulator involved in cancer development. This study aims to explore the relevance of

to cervical cancer (CC) progression and the molecules involved.

Tumor and the adjacent tissues from CC patients were collected.
