The authors report on a case of concurrent herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) and malignant glioma. The co-occurrence of HSE and malignant glioma is very rare, but it can occur during glioma treatment. Both radiotherapy and chemoradiation with temozolomide can induce viral reactivation, leading to HSE relapse. Careful observation for HSE is necessary when administering chemoradiation to patients...

background: in the refractory brick manufacturing industry, because of the high risks associated with the level of dust in the factory environment and thermal stress, a precise identification of industrial hazards is required as a part of safety analysis. the aim of this study was to introduce a preventive approach to risk identification and assessment in the refractory brick production line.  ...

Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) is a rare complication of Herpes simplex virus type-1 infection. It results in severe parenchymal damage in the brain. Although viral latency in neurons is very common in the population, it remains unclear why certain individuals develop HSE. Here we explore potential host genetic variants predisposing to HSE. In order to investigate this we used a rat HSE mode...

MOTIVATION Half-sphere exposure (HSE) is a newly developed two-dimensional solvent exposure measure. By conceptually separating an amino acid's sphere in a protein structure into two half spheres which represent its distinct spatial neighborhoods in the upward and downward directions, the HSE-up and HSE-down measures show superior performance compared with other measures such as accessible surf...

background: the aim of this paper was the comparison of ergonomic risk assessment results (final score and action levels) for the entire body as determined using quick exposure check (qec) and rapid entire body assessment (reba).  materials and methods: this was a cross-sectional study in which all 82 workers engaged in various processes with different activities in an anodizing and aluminum pr...

background: work-related musculoskeletal disorders (wmsds) are a leading cause of disability and workers compensations. objectives: the research was done in tehran pars-electric factory to prevent inducing wmsds. rapid entire body assessment (reba) was carried out to assess musculoskeletal loads on workers due to their postures, repetition, and force. nordic musculoskeletal questionnaire (nmq) ...

AIMS Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is long-recognized in association with epilepsy (HSE ) and more recently in the context of cognitive decline or dementia in the elderly (HSD ), in some cases as a component of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) and fronto-temporal lobe dementia (FTLD). There is an increased risk of seizures in AD and spontaneous epileptiform discharges...

BACKGROUND The Health & Safety Executive Management Standards Indicator Tool (HSE-MS IT) is a questionnaire commonly used to assess work-related stress risks at an organizational level. A critical factor in determining whether this instrument is actually useful is that higher levels of stress risk in the work-design domains should predict higher levels of stress and stress-related outcomes in w...
