Different strategies to overcome the effect of carbimazole on high- and low-dose radioiodine therapy: results from continuous dose-effect models (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Until now, it remains elusive which strategy - antithyroid drug withdrawal or increased radioiodine target doses - should be preferred to avoid the detrimental effect of antithyroid drugs
Relationship between gender role, anger expression, thermal discomfort and sleep onset latency in women (Publications)
Background: Women with thermal discomfort from cold extremities (hands and feet; TDCE) often suffer from prolonged sleep onset latency (SOL). Suppressed anger could contribute to the genesis of both T
The activity of dispiro peroxides against <em>Fasciola hepatica</em> (Publications)
Dispiro 1,2,4-trioxanes and 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes had superior efficacy against Fasciola hepatica than the corresponding ozonides (1,2,4-trioxolanes). For highest efficacy, spiroadamantane and carboxyme
Opposite effect of negative and positive affect on stress procoagulant reactivity (Publications)
Exaggerated procoagulant responses to acute mental stress may contribute to coronary thrombosis, and continuing low-grade systemic coagulation activation may link negative affect with the development
Identification of nuclear proteins that differentially interact with <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> var gene promoters (Publications)
The Plasmodium falciparum virulence factor PfEMP1 is responsible for both antigenic variation and cytoadherence of infected erythrocytes in malaria. Approximately 50 var genes per parasite genome code
Exposure to endotoxin or other bacterial components might protect against the development of atopy (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Several recent studies have shown that growing up on a farm confers significant protection against the development of atopy. These findings point particularly towards the importance of exp
Outcome of radioiodine therapy without, on or 3 days off carbimazole: a prospective interventional three-group comparison (Publications)
PURPOSE: Carbimazole ameliorates hyperthyroidism but reduces radioiodine uptake and adversely affects the outcome of simultaneous radioiodine therapy. We explored whether withdrawal of carbimazole for
