This study deals with selective separation of mono- and divalent cations from aqueous salt solutions using polymeric films based on polyethylene (PE) and polyamide6 (PA6), and two different commercial nanofiltration (NF) membranes. The diffusion rates (D) of ions (Na+ and Ca2+), separation factors (α) and ion rejections (R) of the films and NF…[Lees meer]

Surgery was performed via a posterior instrumented fusion. Postoperatively, both patients remained in their halos for 3months. One pin in BL was removed for loosening. Both patients achieved fusion union by 9months.

3D models of the skull can be a useful tool to guide safe pin placement in patients with skeletal dysplasias, who require…[Lees meer]

Preservation of the testicle is directly associated with the duration of torsion. The aim in this retrospective study was to identify factors that influence pre-and in-hospital times and measure the extent to which these times affect testicle survival.

A retrospective review of 116 patients who underwent exploration for testicular torsion…[Lees meer]

This study aimed at differentiating normative developmental turmoil from prodromal depressive symptoms in adolescence.

Negative and positive mood (daily) in different contexts (friends, home, school), and (subsequent) depressive symptoms were assessed in Dutch adolescents.

Mixture modeling on one cross-sectional study, using a…[Lees meer]

Even as we near therapeutic translation, there remain many questions about the governance of muscle function in human health and disease. With this review, we provide a broad overview of contemporary understanding of myosin SRX, and explore the complexities of targeting this myosin state in human disease.This article has an associated Future…[Lees meer]

In patients with renal impairment (n=22 of 39), the median serum concentrations of linezolid, PNU-142300, and PNU-142586 were 1.6-, 3.3-, 2.8-fold higher for linezolid, PNU-142300 and PNU-142586, respectively, compared to patients without renal impairment. Metabolite concentrations in paired samples were poorly correlated to linezolid…[Lees meer]

While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have antitumor effects, they also have characteristic side effects, including colitis. However, gastritis has rarely been reported. We report a case of a patient with lung adenocarcinoma who presented with epigastric pain and diarrhea following pembrolizumab administration. Sonography of the abdomen…[Lees meer]

Although site-specific pest management has the potential to decrease control costs and environmental impact associated with traditional pest management tactics, the success of these programs relies on the accurate characterization of arthropod distributions within a crop. Because potential correlation of insect counts with remotely sensed field…[Lees meer]
