Thyroid function and risk of type 2 diabetes: a population-based prospective cohort study.

BMC medicine

Chaker L, Ligthart S, Korevaar TI, Hofman A, Franco OH, Peeters RP, Dehghan A.
PMID: 27686165
BMC Med. 2016 Sep 30;14(1):150. doi: 10.1186/s12916-016-0693-4.

BACKGROUND: The association of thyroid function with risk of type 2 diabetes remains elusive. We aimed to investigate the association of thyroid function with incident diabetes and progression from prediabetes to diabetes in a population-based prospective cohort study.METHODS: We...

Estimation of downwind viable airborne microbes from a wet cooling tower-Including settling.

Microbial ecology

Peterson EW, Lighthart B.
PMID: 24231886
Microb Ecol. 1977 Mar;4(1):67-79. doi: 10.1007/BF02010430.

In recent years, reuse of municipal waste water as the coolant in drift-producing cooling towers at electrical generating plants has become increasingly common. A hueristic model is presented that can be used to estimate the concentrations of viable airborne...

PP069. Hypertension evaluated by 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurements in previously preeclamptic women one year postpartum.

Pregnancy hypertension

Mulders AG, van der Wilk EC, Lugthart J, Roeters van Lennep JE, Duvekot JJ.
PMID: 26105923
Pregnancy Hypertens. 2013 Apr;3(2):92. doi: 10.1016/j.preghy.2013.04.094. Epub 2013 Jun 06.

INTRODUCTION: Women with a history of preeclampsia have an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) later in life. 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement is considered to be the gold-standard for diagnosing hypertension. Data on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure...

Bees Scavenge Airborne Bacteria.

Microbial ecology

Lighthart B, Prier K, Loper GM, Bromenshenk J.
PMID: 10882436
Microb Ecol. 2000 May;39(4):314-321.

An air conditioned wind tunnel system was designed, fabricated, and tested to determine whether tethered bees scavenge microbeads or Bacillus subtilis var. niger spores from aerosols. Tests showed that microbeads and spores were scavenged by bumblebees and honeybees, respectively....

The role of intravascular ultrasound imaging in vascular brachytherapy.

International journal of cardiovascular interventions

Carlier SG, Coen VL, Sabaté M, Kay IP, Ligthart JM, Van Der Giessen WJ, Levendag PC, Bom K, Serruys PW.
PMID: 12470381
Int J Cardiovasc Intervent. 2000 Mar;3(1):3-12. doi: 10.1080/14628840050516253.

Intracoronary brachytherapy has recently emerged as a new therapy to prevent restenosis. Initial experimental work was achieved in animal models and the results were assessed by histomorphometry. Initial clinical trials used angiography to guide dosimetry and to assess efficacy....

Influence of selectivity on the supramolecular polymerization of AB-type polymers capable of Both A x A and A x B interactions.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

de Greef TF, Ercolani G, Ligthart GB, Meijer EW, Sijbesma RP.
PMID: 18800796
J Am Chem Soc. 2008 Oct 15;130(41):13755-64. doi: 10.1021/ja8046409. Epub 2008 Sep 19.

The supramolecular polymerization of two AB-type monomers capable of hydrogen-bond-mediated A x B heterocoupling and A x A homocoupling is discussed. The AB-type supramolecular polymerization is based on the strong interaction between self-dimerizing 2-ureido-pyrimidinone (UPy) and 2,7-diamido-1,8-naphthyridine (NaPy). In...

Some Changes in Gut Bacterial Flora of Field-Grown Peridroma saucia (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) When Brought into the Laboratory.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Lighthart B.
PMID: 16347703
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1988 Jul;54(7):1896-8. doi: 10.1128/aem.54.7.1896-1898.1988.

Removal of Peridroma saucia from the field to the laboratory caused little change in the quantity of facultative and aerobic bacteria in the gut but produced significant qualitative and quantitative changes in distinguishable groups of the family Enterobacteriaceae in...

Simulation of airborne microbial droplet transport.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Lighthart B, Kim J.
PMID: 16348015
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1989 Sep;55(9):2349-55. doi: 10.1128/aem.55.9.2349-2355.1989.

The framework for a simulation model which describes the dispersion of individual droplets of water containing viable microbes is presented. The model accounts for physical, chemical, biological, and measured meteorological parameters of each droplet at each of many short...

Microbial aerosols: estimated contribution of combine harvesting to an airshed.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Lighthart B.
PMID: 16346481
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1984 Feb;47(2):430-2. doi: 10.1128/aem.47.2.430-432.1984.

From plate counts of the airborne microorganisms in the downwind dust plume of operating grass-seed combines, the mean source concentrations were calculated to be 6.4 x 10 and 4.7 x 10/m, respectively, potentially accounting for at least 41.9% of...

Large-bore Vascular Closure: New Devices and Techniques.

Interventional cardiology (London, England)

Interv Cardiol. 2019 Feb;14(1):17-21. doi: 10.15420/icr.2018.36.1.

Endovascular aneurysm repair, transcatheter aortic valve implantation and percutaneous mechanical circulatory support systems have become valuable alternatives to conventional surgery and even preferred strategies for a wide array of clinical entities. Their adoption in everyday practice is growing. These...

BACKGROUND: GPs are frequently confronted with patients with acute onset chest pain. Although usually benign, approximately 5% is due to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Unfortunately, ACS is not always recognised, leading to a missed diagnosis in 2-5% of presentations.AIM:...
