Short-term complementary and alternative medicine on quality of life in women with fibromyalgia.

Dias PA1, Guimarães AB1, Albuquerque Ade O1, de Oliveira KL2, Cavalcante ML1, Guimarães SB1.
Journal of integrative medicine.J Integr Med.2016 Jan;14(1):29-35. doi: 10.1016/S2095-4964(16)60235-2.
BACKGROUND: Fibromyalgia (FMS) is a syndrome characterized by chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain, whose etiology is not completely understood. Different therapeutic approaches have been used with inconsistent results. This observation does not invalidate the continued search for alternative tre

QMRA for Drinking Water: 2. The Effect of Pathogen Clustering in Single-Hit Dose-Response Models.

Nilsen V1, Wyller J1.
Risk analysis : an official publication of the Society for Risk Analysis.Risk Anal.2016 Jan;36(1):163-81. doi: 10.1111/risa.12528.
Spatial and/or temporal clustering of pathogens will invalidate the commonly used assumption of Poisson-distributed pathogen counts (doses) in quantitative microbial risk assessment. In this work, the theoretically predicted effect of spatial clustering in conventional "single-hit" dose-response mod

Upscaling NZ-DNDC using a regression based meta-model to estimate direct N2O emissions from New Zealand grazed pastures.

Giltrap DL1, Ausseil AG2.
The Science of the total environment.Sci Total Environ.2016 Jan 1;539:221-30. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2015.08.107. Epub 2015 Sep 9.
The availability of detailed input data frequently limits the application of process-based models at large scale. In this study, we produced simplified meta-models of the simulated nitrous oxide (N2O) emission factors (EF) using NZ-DNDC. Monte Carlo simulations were performed and the results investi

Comment on "Curvature capillary migration of microspheres" by N. Sharifi-Mood, I. B. Liu, K. J. Stebe, Soft Matter, 2015, 11, 6768.

Würger A1.
Soft matter.Soft Matter.2015 Dec 23;12(2):331-2. doi: 10.1039/c5sm01948f.
In a recent paper, Sharifi-Mood et al. studied colloidal particles trapped at a liquid interface with opposite principal curvatures c1 = -c2. In the theory part, they claim that the trapping energy vanishes at second order in Δc = c1 - c2, which would invalidate our previous result [Phys. Rev. E: S

Doctors and Vampires in Sub-Saharan Africa: Ethical Challenges in Clinical Trial Research

Peeters Grietens Koen,Ribera Joan Muela,Erhart Annette,Hoibak Sarah,Ravinetto Raffaella M.,Gryseels Charlotte,Dierickx Susan,O'Neill Sarah,Muela Susanna Hausmann,D'Alessandro Umberto
The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene 91(2), 213-215, 2014-08
… Strikingly, one of the reasons for participant reticence is the occurrence of local rumors surrounding "blood stealing" or "blood selling." Such fears can potentially have dire effects on the success of research projects--for example, high dropout rates that would invalidate the trial's results--and have ethical implications related to cultural sensitivity and informed consent. …
