Healthcare for migrants, participatory health research and implementation science—better health policy and practice through inclusion. the restore project
(Informa UK Limited, 2014-01-27)
Background: This is a time of unprecedented mobility across the globe. Healthcare systems need to adapt to ensure that primary care is culturally and linguistically appropriate for migrants. Evidence-based guidelines and ...
Chondrogenic differentiation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in a simulated osteochondral environment is hydrogel dependent
(ECM Research Journal, 2014-02-03)
Hydrogels pose interesting features for cartilage regeneration strategies, such as the option for injectability and in situ gelation resulting in optimal filling of defects. We aimed to study different hydrogels for their ...
Deep broadband observations of the distant gamma-ray blazar pks 1424+240
(IOP Publishing, 2014-03-28)
We present deep VERITAS observations of the blazar PKS 1424+240, along with contemporaneous Fermi Large Area Telescope, Swift X-ray Telescope, and Swift UV Optical Telescope data between 2009 February 19 and 2013 June 8. ...
Investigating broadband variability of the tev blazar 1es 1959+650
(IOP Publishing, 2014-12-03)
We summarize broadband observations of the TeV-emitting blazar 1ES 1959+650, including optical R-band observations by the robotic telescopes Super-LOTIS and iTelescope, UV observations by Swift Ultraviolet and Optical ...
Multiwavelength observations of mrk 501 in 2008
(EDP Sciences, 2014-12-17)
Context. Blazars are variable sources on various timescales over a broad energy range spanning from radio to very high energy (>100 GeV, hereafter VHE). Mrk 501 is one of the brightest blazars at TeV energies and ...
The most powerful flaring activity from the nlsy1 pmn j0948+0022
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-11-27)
We report on multifrequency observations performed during 2012 December-2013 August of the first narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy detected in gamma-rays, PMN J0948+0022 (z = 0.5846). A y -ray flare was observed by the Large ...
Simvastatin in the acute respiratory distress syndrome
(New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM/MMS), 2014-10-30)
BACKGROUND
Studies in animals and in vitro and phase 2 studies in humans suggest that statins may be beneficial in the treatment of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This study tested the hypothesis that ...
The enigma consortium: large-scale collaborative analyses of neuroimaging and genetic data
(Springer Nature, 2014-01-08)
The Enhancing NeuroImaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis (ENIGMA) Consortium is a collaborative network of researchers working together on a range of large-scale studies that integrate data from 70 institutions worldwide. ...
Aliskiren alone or with other antihypertensives in the elderly with borderline and stage 1 hypertension: the apollo trial
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-03-09)
Aims We studied the unclear question whether blood pressure (BP) lowering reduces cardiovascular disease (CVD) in elderly individuals with systolic BP <160 mm Hg.
Methods and results We initiated a randomized ...
