Et vigtigt demokratisk spørgsmål er derfor, om anbefalingsalgoritme eksponerer publikum incidentalt for politisk information, ...

Scientific workflows integrate data and computing interfaces as configurable, semi-automatic graphs to solve a scientific problem. Kepler is such a software system for designing, executing, reusing, evolving, archiving and sharing scientific workflows. Electron tomography (ET) enables high-resolution views of complex cellular structures, such as cytoskeletons, organelles, viruses and chromosome...

Abstract Thick specimens, as encountered in cryo-scanning transmission electron tomography, offer special challenges to conventional reconstruction workflows. The visibility of features, including gold nanoparticles introduced fiducial markers, varies strongly through the tilt series. As a result, tedious manual refinement may be required order produce successful alignment. Information from hig...

The inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic, immune-mediated and chronic intestinal condition. In the present study, the effect of Setarud (IMOD), a novel natural drug with known immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties was investigated in experimental colitis in rats and compared with the dexamethasone and infliximab. Immunologic colitis was induced by intracolo...

Introduction Cerebral toxoplasmosis is a leading cause of central nervous system (CNS) lesions in severely immunocompromised human immunodeficiency virus+ (HIV+) patients who are seropositive for the parasite and have not received effective chemoprophylaxis. A 48-year-old HIV+ woman presented to our emergency room with seizure and decreased level of consciousness. She had developed fever, produ...
