in response to the international journal of health policy and management (ijhpm)editorial, this commentary adds to the debate about ethical dimensions of compassionate care in uk service provision. it acknowledges the importance of the original paper, and attempts to explore some of the issues that are raised in the context of nursing practice, research and education. it is argued that each of ...

among the more desired reforms of civil liability law, some appear as particularly useful. this is notably the case of the recognition of a new form of damages which call for the restitution, by the responsible party, of the proceeds he has derived from the illicit activity. another suggestion could consist of completing an already widely undertaken evolution towards a rationalization of the ju...

proton transfer (pt) and methyl group transfer (mgt) occurring in small biomimetic systems, formamide-formamidic acid (fa-fi), and n-formyl-n-methylformamide-(e)-methyl n-formylformimidate (nmfa-nmfi) are investigated in the gas phase and in single-walled carbon nanotubes by using the density functional theory and the oniom approach. it is shown that pt reaction is disfavoured in single-walled ...

This paper examines interlinkages and hedging opportunities between nine major cryptocurrencies from 30 September 2015 to 4 June 2020, a period which notably includes the COVID-19 outbreak lasting early 2020 end of sample period. Estimated time-varying correlation coefficients that are based on TVP-VAR show high degree interconnectedness among throughout Notably, correlations reach their joint ...

We offer a series of reflective insights about the state and direction studies related to politics regulation. Notably we argue that field is characterized by persisting divisions between Americanists Europeanists. Largely focused on actions taken political principals, former regularly report substantial politicization regulatory behavior. Reflecting recent developments in US however, show infl...

Recent developments of the model quantized helical QCD string are presented, notably baryon production. An overview experimental evidence is discussed as well possible applications.

Drug transporters are now recognized as major actors in pharmacokinetics, involved notably in drug-drug interactions and drug adverse effects. Factors that govern their activity, localization and expression are therefore important to consider. In the present review, the implications of protein kinases C (PKCs) in transporter regulations are summarized and discussed. Both solute carrier (SLC) an...

We aimed to identify the hepatoprotective effects of Terminalia chebula water extract (TCW) and its corresponding pharmacological actions using C57/BL6 mice model of tert-butylhydroperoxide-(t-BHP-) induced acute liver injury. Mice were orally administered with TCW (0, 50, 100, or 200 mg/kg) or gallic acid (100 mg/kg) for 5 days before t-BHP (2.5 mM/kg) injection. Liver enzymes, histopathology,...

We monitored long-term (median 11 months) concentrations of platelet serotonin and urinary serotonin, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, and seven catecholamine metabolites in 44 patients with carcinoid tumors. Tumor serotonin and catecholamine contents (11 patients) and urinary histamine and N-methylhistamine (15 patients) were determined. Consistently increased concentrations of indoles, notably pla...

The aim of this study was to examine the proliferative ability of dibutyryl chitin (DBC) on scratch wounds in HaCaT keratinocytes and to evaluate the effect of nanoporous non-woven mat (DBCNFM) on skin wound healing in hairless mice using the advantages of DBCNFM, such as high porosity and high surface area to volume. The cell spreading activity of DBC was verified through a cell spreading assa...
