BACKGROUND: Bacterial infection causes accumulation of neutrophils that release antimicrobial proteins including heparin-binding protein (HBP). In human airways, this neutrophil accumulation can be re-capitulated via intrabronchial exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist, that also causes a local increase in the neutrophil-mobilizing cytokine IL-26. Although LPS

Pretend play is usually defined as an activity wherein objects and actions (but also 7 affective expression, at times) are separated from their original meanings. Its developmental 8 appearance is set around the second year of life, and increases dramatically in duration, 9 frequency and quality when play episodes start becoming more complex, both linguistically 10 and interactionally reaching its

The implementation of continuous processing in the biopharmaceutical industry is hindered by the scarcity of process analytical technologies (PAT). To monitor and control a continuous process, PAT tools will be crucial to measure real-time product quality attributes such as protein aggregation. Miniaturizing these analytical techniques can increase measurement speed and enable faster decision-maki

Background: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) caused by hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is often severe and difficult to treat. The content of Cr(VI) in cement can be reduced by, for example, addition of iron(II) sulfate. Since 2005 the content of Cr(VI) in cement is regulated in the EU Directive 2003/53/EC and must not exceed 2 ppm. Since this regulation came into force, ACD caused by cement has

In times of increasing global temperatures and apathy in the face of climatic and social crises, understanding why people do or do not act is critical. Despite high pro-environmental attitudes, most people ignore the reality of climate change in their everyday lives (Moser & Kleinhückelkotten, 2017). This may be a sign for internal conflict and attempts to protect the self from threat (Norgaar

PURPOSE: To describe a concept for prevention of secondary conditions in individuals with chronic neuromuscular disabilities by using two Swedish developed follow-up-programmes for cerebral palsy (CP; CPUP) and myelomeningocele (MMC; MMCUP) respectively as examples.METHOD: This paper describes and outlines the rationale, development and implementation of CPUP and MMCUP.RESULTS: Both programmes are

Building on Michel Foucault’s (1976) argument that a grand narrative of sovereignty characterised the idea of government and permeated entire systems of thought in the twentieth century, this paper asks whether Freudian psychoanalysis is also embedded within the same meta-discourse. Drawing on psychoanalytic accounts of Rebecca West’s work (Varney, 2000; Bonikowski, 2005) which tend to focus on We

How do care seekers navigate through healthcare services and make choices about where to access medicines? Rui Liu took an interest in the field of substandard and falsified medicine when she began with her doctoral studies. She had the ambition to focus on the grey zones and bring awareness of what counts as legal, ethical and moral. With a bachelor’s degree in applied linguistics and two master’
