    Refugees and general practitioners: partners in care? = Vluchtelingen en huisartsen: bondgenoten in de zorg?

    No full text
    The aim of this study is to explore the reflections, perceptions and opinions of former refugees and GPs in the Netherlands concerning their encounters. The aim is not to arrive at a ‘generalised thruth’ based on the evidence of numbers, but to gain an insight into how interaction processes are perceived and reflected on by both parties, and learn from the confrontation of their perspectives. The principal question is: which factors lead to success or failure in the way a working relationship develops between a refugee patient and a GP/ care provider, viewed from the perspective of both refugees and GPs

    Pectin - Xyloglucan linkages in type I primary cell walls of plants

    No full text
    Evidence for covalent pectin - xyloglucan linkages in the cell wall of growing cells and maturing tissues has been reported. In-vitro studies using isolated Golgi membranes, and pulse-labelling studies in vivo, indicate that pectin - xyloglucan linkages form in the Golgi apparatus. The structure and biological significance of these complexes are discussed. © 2005 Società Botanica Italiana.Abdel-Massih RM, 2003, PLANTA, V216, P502, DOI 10.1007-s00425-002-0861-y; Brett C.T., 1996, PHYSL BIOCH PLANT CE; BRETT CT, 2004, 10 CELL WALL M 2004, P66; Femenia A, 1999, CARBOHYD POLYM, V39, P151, DOI 10.1016-S0144-8617(99)00003-X; KEEGSTRA K, 1973, PLANT PHYSIOL, V51, P188, DOI 10.1104-pp.51.1.188; MCCANN MC, 1990, J CELL SCI, V96, P323; POPPER ZA, 2004, 10 CELL WALL M 2004, P85; Thompson JE, 2000, PLANTA, V211, P275, DOI 10.1007-s004250000287; Vincken JP, 2003, PLANT PHYSIOL, V132, P1781, DOI 10.1104-pp.103.022350; WALDRON KW, 1992, PHYTOCHEMISTRY, V31, P1931, DOI 10.1016-0031-9422(92)80336-D89

    Contribuicao para o estudo da epidemiologia molecular e da patogenia das infeccoes causadas por Chlamydia trachomatis

    The study determined Chlamydia trachomatis (C.t.) genotype E as predominant, in the biological products of Lisbon citizens infected by C.t.. The author developed an experimental model of chronic infection, using mice of different haplotypes, inoculated (once or more) in the uterus (through the vagina) with one E C.t. strain. C.t. was isolated, by culture, after the first inoculation, but C.t. DNA was detected during the six months period of experiments; C.t. remained in tubal tissues in a nonviable biological state. The humoral immune response of infected animals indicated a chronic C.t. infection. The evaluation of the genetic expression of different cytokines produced by Th1 or Th2 cells, couldn't determine a profile specifically related with the chronic C.t. infection; however, the IFN_#gamma# production by illiac node cells, only occured during the acute infection. The production of isotype IgG2a or IgG1 showed a Th1 profile in C3H/He mice and a Th2 profile in C57BL/6 mice. C3H/He mice produced antibodies to the C.t HSP60 (CHSP60) during both acute and chronic C.t. infection; C57BL/6 mice only reacted to CHSP60 when submitted to several C.t. infection episodes. Mice carrying a chronic C.t. infection didn't exhibit any histological changes suggesting episodes. Mice carrying a chronic C.t. infection didn't exhibit any histological changes suggesting the establishment of a chronic inflammatory processAvailable from Fundacao para a Ciencia e a Tecnologia, Servico de Informacao e Documentacao, Av.

    An Auto-Zero Stabilized Voltage Buffer with a Trimmed Input Current of 0.2pA

    No full text
    This paper presents an input-current trimming scheme for auto-zero amplifiers. Since their input current is mainly due to charge injection,the scheme operates by trimming the clock swing,and hence the charge injection,of two dummy input switches. At room temperature,the trimming scheme reduces the maximum input current of an auto-zero stabilized voltage buffer from 1pA to 0.2pA (13 samples) over its full input voltage range (0 to 1.3V). This increases to 0.4pA over temperature (0 to 85°C),which is well below the leakage of typical ESD diodes,and is the lowest input current ever reported for an auto-zero amplifier.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic InstrumentationMicroelectronic

    An Auto-Zero-Stabilized Voltage Buffer With a Quiet Chopping Scheme and Constant Sub-pA Input Current

    No full text
    This article describes an auto-zero stabilized voltage buffer that achieves low offset and low noise with sub-pA input current. A high gain stabilization loop is used to periodically cancel the buffer’s offset. The loop itself is periodically disconnected from the buffer and auto-zeroed, during which its bandwidth is reduced to reduce the associated noise folding. However, this also reduces its offset correction range, and so to avoid overloading, its initial offset is digitally trimmed. To break up the correlation between the residual low-frequency (LF) noise of the auto-zero and stabilization phases, the loop is periodically chopped, which significantly reduces the buffer’s LF noise. Finally, the duty-cycle of the two phases is optimized to bring the buffer’s LF noise density close to 2–√ times its white noise density (14 nV/ Hz−−−√ ), which is the fundamental limit of an AZ amplifier. The buffer also achieves a constant and low input current (0.8 pA), as well as a state-of-the-art offset (0.4 μV ).Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic InstrumentationMicroelectronic
