Job Satisfaction and Chronic Stress of General Practitioners and Their Teams: Baseline Data of a Cluster-Randomised Trial (IMPROVEjob)
(2021-09-08)
Background: A high prevalence of poor job satisfaction and high chronic stress is documented for general practitioners (GPs) and non-physician practice staff from various countries. The reasons are multifactorial and include ......
Intervertebral Disc and Adipokine Leptin—Loves Me, Loves Me Not
(2020-12-31)
Leptin—the most famous adipose tissue-secreted hormone—in the human body is mostly observed in a negative connotation, as the hormone level increases with the accumulation of body fat. Nowadays, fatness is becoming another ...
Experimental Induction of Micro- and Macrosomatognosia: A Virtual Hand Illusion Study
(2021-04-29)
Although body size misperceptions are known to occur under various neurological and psychiatric conditions, their neurocognitive underpinnings are not yet resolved. Accordingly, it would be beneficial to have an experimental ......
One-Time Acidification of Slurry: What Is the Most Effective Acid and Treatment Strategy?
(2021-06-28)
Acidification of slurry is a common practice to reduce ammonia and methane emissions.
Sulfuric acid is usually used for this process. However, this has been criticized due to the high sulfur
input into soils. Therefore, ...
Replicability and reliability of the background and target velocity effects in smooth pursuit eye movements
(2021-07-07)
When we follow a slowly moving target with our eyes, we perform smooth pursuit eye movements (SPEM). Previous investigations point to significantly and robustly reduced SPEM performance in the presence of a stationary ...
Fetal-Derived Immune Cells at the Roots of Lifelong Pathophysiology
(2021-02-23)
Tissue-resident innate immune cells exert a wide range of functions in both adult
homeostasis and pathology. Our understanding of when and how these cellular
networks are established has dramatically changed with the ...
Assessing the quality of life of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with bone metastases receiving [223Ra]RaCl2 therapy
(2020-08-19)
[223Ra]RaCl2 dichloride treatment in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is associated with improved overall survival (OS) and a delay in the time to the first ...
Endothelial PlexinD1 signaling instructs spinal cord vascularization and motor neuron development
(2022-12-21)
How the vascular and neural compartment cooperate to achieve such a complex and highly specialized structure as the central nervous system is still unclear. Here, we reveal a crosstalk between motor neurons (MNs) and ...
Glucocorticoids in relation to behavior, morphology, and physiology as proxy indicators for the assessment of animal welfare: A systematic mapping review
(2023-01-06)
Translating theoretical concepts of animal welfare into quantitative assessment protocols is an ongoing challenge. Glucocorticoids (GCs) are frequently used as physiological measure in welfare assessment. The interpretation ...
X-linked variations in SHROOM4 are implicated in congenital anomalies of the urinary tract and the anorectal, cardiovascular and central nervous systems
(2022-11-15)
Background: SHROOM4 is thought to play an important role in cytoskeletal modification and development of the early nervous system. Previously, single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) or copy number variations (CNVs) in SHROOM4 ...
