Abstract Residential care is primarily considered most appropriate for young people with complex needs, often due to multi-type traumas. Children in are disproportionately disadvantaged, children residential vulnerable, which why it so important understand mechanisms that support resilience and post-traumatic growth this group of people. This review aimed advance our understanding how intervent...

Soil erosion worldwide is an intense, poorly controlled process. In many respects, this a consequence of the lack up-to-date high-resolution maps. All over world, problem insufficient information solved in different ways, mainly on point-by-point basis, within local areas. Extrapolation results obtained locally to more extensive territory produces inevitable uncertainties and errors. For anthro...

Histatins 1, 3, and 5 from human parotid secretion were isolated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-2 and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. The complete amino acid sequences of histatins determined by automated Edman degradation of the proteins, Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and tryptic peptides, are as follows: (Sequence: see text). Histatins 1, 3, and 5 contain 38, 32, an...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate corneal endothelium in patients with retinitis pigmentosa using confocal microscopy, and compare their results with those of healthy controls. METHODS This comparative study took place between June 2009 and June 2011 in the Department of Ophthalmology, Selcuk University Faculty of Medicine, Konya, Turkey.

Imidazoles and triazoles represent major classes of antifungal azole derivatives. With respect to UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes, the drug metabolism focus has mainly concentrated on their inhibitory effects with little known about azoles as substrates for UGTs. N-Glucuronide metabolites of the imidazole antifungals, tioconazole and croconazole, have been reported, but there are curr...

Published data on the associations between three well-characterized polymorphisms in the interleukin 6 and 10 (IL-6 and IL-10) genes and the risk of pneumonia are inconclusive. A meta-analysis was performed to derive a more precise estimate. The electronic databases MEDLINE (Ovid) and PubMed were searched from the earliest possible year to May 2014. A total of 9 articles met the criteria, and t...

Current factor VIII (FVIII) products display a half-life (t1/2) of 8-12 hours, requiring frequent intravenous injections for prophylaxis and treatment of patients with hemophilia A. rFVIIIFc is a recombinant fusion protein composed of a single molecule of FVIII covalently linked to the Fc domain of human IgG1 to extend circulating rFVIII t1/2. This first-in-human study in previously treated sub...
