The aim of the study was to identify the Job Demand-Control (JDC) and social support contribution for sickness-absenteeism duration of Health Treatment Licences (HTL) in hospital workers (civil servants) of the Santa Catarina State Department of Health of (SES/SC), Brazil. These health workers have the second highest HTL among civil servants in the state, especially those working in hospitals. ...

OBJECTIVE The evidence on whether there is work stress related dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis is equivocal. This study assessed the relation between work stress and diurnal cortisol rhythm in a large-scale occupational cohort, the Whitehall II study. METHODS Work stress was assessed in two ways, using the job-demand-control (JDC) and the effort-reward-imbalance (ERI)...

The problem of deducing the values of the exchange integrals in yttrium and gadolinium iron garnet from measurements of the magnetization and the magnetic contribution to the specific heat at low temperatures is considered. For these garnets the spin-wave normal modes can be found by solving the semiclassical equations of motion which give rise to a set of n simultaneous linear equations, where...

Abstract Background Some proposed methods for identifying essential proteins have better results by using biological information. Gene expression data is generally used to identify proteins. However, gene prone fluctuations, which may affect the accuracy of protein identification. Therefore, we propose an identification method based on and PPI network calculate similarity "active" "inactive" st...
