German cockroaches (GCRs), Blattella germanica (L.) (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae), are attracted to those beer semiochemicals (e.g., ethanol) that formerly living and active yeasts have produced or otherwise formed in the brewing process. We predicted that an earlier step in the production of beer, where yeasts actively metabolize the sugar in malted barley powder (dry malt extract [DME]), is ver...

Diabetic macular edema (DME) represents one of the leading causes of visual impairment in working-age adults. Although there are several proven treatments available for this condition, pharmacotherapy through the use of intravitreal antivascular endothelial growth factor agents has revolutionized the management of DME over the past decade with superior outcomes compared to laser therapy. This r...


 CADTH recommends that Beovu be reimbursed by public drug plans for the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME) if certain conditions are met.
 should covered to treat patients with DME provided is a similar patient population and in way other anti–vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs currently adult DME.
 only prescribed an ophthalmologist experience managing its c...

Starting from the environmental issues related to global warming, climate change and 15 reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, this review paper describes how CO2 recycling can represent 16 a challenging strategy suitable to explore new concepts and opportunities for catalytic and 17 industrial development. In this view, the production of dimethyl ether (DME) from catalytic 18 hydrogenation of ...

PURPOSE To report the three-year outcomes of macular laser photocoagulation following intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) for diffuse diabetic macular edema (DME). METHODS A prospective, randomized controlled study was completed. Eighty-six eyes of 74 patients with diffuse DME were randomized into two groups. Eyes assigned to the combination group (n = 48) were subjected ...

PURPOSE To investigate the correlation of outer retinal layers (ORL) thickness and visual acuity (VA) in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). METHODS Consecutive DME patients seen at the Retina Clinic of The University of Hong Kong were recruited for OCT assessment. The ORL thickness was defined as the distance between external limiting membrane (ELM) and retinal pigment epithelium (RP...

Thermochemical biorefinery based on dimethyl ether (DME) as an intermediate is studied. DME is converted into methyl acetate, which can either be hydrogenated to ethanol or sold as a co-product. Considering this option together with a variety of technologies for syngas upgrading, 12 different process concepts are analyzed. The considered products are ethanol, methyl acetate, H2, DME and electri...

Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a potentially sight-threatening disease that predominantly affects patients with type 2 diabetes. The pathogenesis is complex, with many contributing factors involved. In addition to overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor in the diabetic eye, there is an inflammatory pathway that contributes to the breakdown of the blood-retina barrier and nonperfus...

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the most common cancer in endemic areas of liver fluke infection. Although the liver fluke is recognized as a carcinogenic agent in cholangiocarcinogenesis, other factors may play important roles in bringing about the high prevalence of the cancer in populations of this region. Drug metabolizing enzymes (DME) are essential for detoxification of toxic and carcinogenic...

Dimethyl ether (DME) is considered a promising alternative to diesel fuel in compression-ignition engines because of low particulate and NOx emissions along with high thermal efficiencies as well as improved auto-ignition characteristics due to its high cetane number. Recently, DME also has been selected as a prospective fuel candidate for the validation of turbulent combustion models organized...
