OBJECTIVE The medication used in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has by no means yielded the expected prognostic benefit. This review focuses on drugs that are currently under investigation as part of novel therapeutic strategies in CPR and post-resuscitation care. DATA SOURCES The main categories of drugs under investigation were identified in position papers regarding gaps in scientific...

It is well recognized that new device engineering is indispensable in overcoming difficulties of advanced CMOS and realizing high performance LSIs under 10 nm regime. Here, the channel materials with high mobility and, more essentially, low effective mass, are preferable under quasi-ballistic transport expected in ultra-short channel regime. From this viewpoint, Ge and IIIV semiconductor channe...

Editorials 591 The Millennium Development Goals focused on poverty and development and reducing inequalities between countries. 1 Progress was monitored through national averages without adequate attention to within-country inequality. The post-2015 sustainable development goals (SDG) stress " leaving no one behind " – with goal 10 specifically calling for the reduction of inequality, within an...

The post-genomic era has been driven by the development of technologies that allow the function of cells and whole organisms to be explored at the molecular level. Metabolomics is concerned with the measurement of global sets of low-molecular-weight metabolites. Metabolite profiles of body fluids or tissues can be regarded as important indicators of physiological or pathological states. Such pr...

BACKGROUND Human migration caused by political unrest, wars and poverty is a major topic in international health. Infectious diseases like tuberculosis follow their host, with potential impact on both the migrants and the population in the recipient countries. In this study, we evaluate Mycobacterium tuberculosis transmission between the national population and migrants in Denmark. METHODS Re...
