Purpose: To assess baseline factors that may predict fast tibiofemoral cartilage loss over a 30-month period. Materials and Methods: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) study is a longitudinal study of individuals who have or who are at high risk for knee osteoarthritis. The HIPAA-compliant protocol was approved by the institutional review boards of all participating centers, and written informe
The aim of this explorative study is to examine the theoretical and empirical notions in the business model of innovation that are influenced by use of management control systems (MCS). By means of a systematic literature review, the theoretical constructs are highlighted and related to the diagnostic and interactive uses of part of the MCS, namely the performance measurement systems (PMS), and th

Cement hydration kinetics are controlled by clinker composition, water addition, sulfate availability and fineness. The analytical access to the first hour of hydration is limited. Here a new setup is introduced to record the initial 30-60 minutes of hydration on a routine basis with isothermal calorimetry. Fast isothermal calorimetry is fully quantitative. Reproducibility is reported in terms of
Background – Advancing the development of highly efficacious and long-lasting malaria vaccines is hampered by incomplete knowledge of protective immune mechanisms and an absence of established correlates of immunity. Antibody avidity is frequently evaluated as an indicator of a high-quality or protective antibody response to vaccination. However, the importance of avidity in vaccine-induced immuni
In this paper a novel filtered back-projection algorithm for inversion of a discretized Radon transform is presented. It makes use of invariance properties possessed by both the Radon transform and its dual. By switching to log-polar coordinates, both operators can be expressed in a displacement invariant manner. Explicit expressions for the corresponding transfer functions are calculated. Further
Inflammation and ischemia have a synergistic damaging effect in the immature brain. The role of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptors 1 and 2 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sensitization and tolerance to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) was evaluated in neonatal murine hippocampal organotypic slices. Hippocampal slices from balb/c, C57BL/6 TNFR1(-/-), TNFR2(-/-), and wild-type (WT) mice obtai
Streptococcus pyogenes is an exclusively human pathogen that can provoke mild skin and throat infections but can also cause fatal septicemia. This gram-positive bacterium has developed several strategies to evade the human immune system, enabling S. pyogenes to survive in the host. These strategies include recruiting several human plasma proteins, such as the complement inhibitor, C4b-binding prot
Moraxella catarrhalis is a human-specific commensal of the respiratory tract and an opportunistic pathogen. It is one of the leading cause of otitis media in children and of acute exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, resulting in significant morbidity and economic burden. Vaccines and new immunotherapeutic strategies to treat this emerging pathogen are needed. Comp
