Impact of climate change on wetland ecosystems : A critical review of experimental wetlands

Climate change is identified as a major threat to wetlands. Altered hydrology and rising temperature can change the biogeochemistry and function of a wetland to the degree that some important services might be turned into disservices. This means that they will, for example, no longer provide a water purification service and adversely they may start to decompose and release nutrients to the surface

Women with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss are a high-risk population for adverse obstetrical outcome : A retrospective cohort study

Introduction

Globally, the twenty-first century will witness rapid population ageing. Already in 2050, one out of five persons in the world, and one out of three in Europe, is expected to be 60 or over (UN 2015). Moreover, we have entered into a new stage of population ageing in terms of its causes, which have altered its consequences. In the first stage, lasting until the middle of the twentieth century in de

A retrospective study assessing the accuracy of [18F]–fluorocholine PET/CT for primary staging of lymph node metastases in intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy with extended lymph node dissection

Background: Previous studies have investigated [18F]-fluorocholine (FCH) positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT) in primary staging of men with intermediate or high-risk prostate cancer and have generally shown high specificity and poor sensitivity. FCH PET/CT is not recommended for the primary staging of metastases in the European guidelines for prostate cancer. However, it

Genetically determined NLRP3 inflammasome activation associates with systemic inflammation and cardiovascular mortality

AIMS: Inflammation plays an important role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. The NOD-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome contributes to the development of atherosclerosis in animal models. Components of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway such as interleukin-1β can therapeutically be targeted. Associations of genetically determined inflammasome-mediated systemic inflammation with CV

Total adiponectin in indigenous Melanesians on Kitava

Objectives: Experimental and small human studies have indicated that high total adiponectin levels have beneficial cardiometabolic effects. In contrast, however, high total adiponectin levels are also associated with higher all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in thoroughly adjusted epidemiological studies. To gain further insight into these seemingly contradictory results, we report results on

Human and simian adenoviruses : phylogenetic inferences from analysis of VA RNA genes

Adenovirus VA RNA genes have primary sequence constraints due to internal promoter regions and a high degree of secondary structure in the RNA product. To determine the relationships between human and simian adenoviruses, the VA RNA genes of several primate adenoviruses were characterized and compared to those sequences already published. Human adenoviruses of subgenera A, B:2, and F have only one
