Caring and Collaborating Across Cultures? Migrant Care Workers' Relationships with Care Recipients, Colleagues and Employers
(2010)The literature on migrant care workers has tended to place little emphasis on themultiple relationships thatmigrant carers formwith care recipients, employers/managers and work colleagues. This article makes a contribution ... -
Toward an Integrative Theory of Care: Formal and Informal Intersections
(Lexington, 2009)Researchers have categorized the complex phenomenon of care into two distinct types: formal and informal. According to this accepted dichotomy, informal care is generally provided by untrained social network members (family ... -
Care revolutions in the making? A comparison of cash-for-care programmes in four European countries.
(Cambridge University Press, 2006)This article describes and evaluates cash-for-care programmes for older people in four European countries, namely Home-Care Grants in Ireland, Direct Payments in the United Kingdom (England), Service Vouchers in Finland ... -
Living in institutional care: Residents' experiences and coping strategies
(2009)Insights into daily living in residential care settings are rare. This article draws on a qualitative dataset (semi-structured interviews and recordings of residents? council meetings) that gives a glimpse of the experiences ... -
Outcome of pregnancy and disease course among women with aplastic anemia treated with immunosuppression
(American College of Physicians, 2002)Background: Aplastic anemia may develop during pregnancy and sometimes improves spontaneously after delivery. The effects of pregnancy on aplastic anemia after immunosuppressive treatment and of aplastic anemia on the ... -
Molecular response to imatinib mesylate following relapse after allogeneic SCT for CML
(American Society of Hematology, 2003) -
Development of leukemia in donor cells after allogeneic stem cell transplantation--a survey of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT).
(Pensiero Scientifico / Ferrata Storti Foundation, 2005)Leukemia in donor cells (donor cell leukemia; DCL) has been reported as a rare but severe complication of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). However, the incidence, potential pathogenetic factors, therapeutic ... -
Effective use of imatinib-mesylate in the treatment of relapsed chronic myeloid leukemia after allogeneic transplantation
(Ferrata Storti Foundation, 2008) -
Chronic granulomatous disease presenting as an oculomucocutaneous syndrome mimicking Behcet's syndrome
(BMJ, 1986)A female patient who presented for the first time at the age of 19 with oculomucocutaneous syndrome was found to have an absolute deficiency of neutrophil peroxide production. Neutrophil peroxide production as measured by ... -
Defective suppression in the autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction in patients with Crohn's disease
(BMJ, 1989)T helper and suppressor cell control of autologous immunoglobulin production was measured in 14 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) using autologous B cells or monocytes to stimulate regulatory T-cell activity. A pronounced ... -
Neurofilament expression in human T lymphocytes
(British Society for Immunology, 1993)The expression of intermediate filaments in normal cells is mainly determined by their embryonal developmental origin. Flow cytometry using monoclonal antibody RT97 demonstrated that neurofilament was detectable in the ... -
Regulation of CD3 expression in a protein kinase C isozyme-deficient T-cell line
(British Society for Immunology, 1993)Using the T-cell lymphoma line HuT 78, and a clone derived from HuT 78, designated K-4, the role of protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes in the expression of a variety of T-cell surface antigens was investigated. HuT 78 expresses ... -
Evolution of the Cerebellar Cortex: Selective expansion of prefrontal-projecting lobules
(2009)It has been suggested that interconnected brain areas evolve in tandem because evolutionary pressures act on complete functional systems rather than individual brain areas. The cerebellar cortex has reciprocal connections ... -
Gastric T lymphocyte responses to Helicobacter pylori in patients with H pylori colonisation
(BMJ, 1994)Helicobacter pylori has been identified as a dominant factor in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer. The aim of this study was to examine peripheral blood and gastric lymphocyte proliferation and cytokine production in ... -
Microalbuminuria in inflammatory bowel disease
(BMJ, 1994)Microalbuminuria independently predicts the development of nephropathy and increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients, but it may be an indicator of the acute phase response. This study examined ... -
Cellular proliferation and activation of NF kappa B are induced by autocrine production of tumor necrosis factor alpha in the human T lymphoma line HuT 78
(The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1995)Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a pleiotropic cytokine which has both cytotoxic and proliferative effects. HuT 78, a T-cell line derived from a Sezary lymphoma, is resistant to the cytotoxic effects of TNF, suggesting that ... -
Protein kinase C isoform expression in CD45RA+ and CD45RO+ T lymphocytes
(Blackwell, 1995)Differences in levels of specific enzymes utilized in intracellular signalling could be a factor in the distinct signalling properties observed in memory and naive T cells. We have studied the expression of both classical ... -
Expression of CD44 on rheumatoid synovial fluid lymphocytes
(BMJ, 1995)OBJECTIVES--To investigate the involvement of the adhesion molecule CD44 in the homing of lymphocytes to synovial tissue, by examining the density of expression and molecular mass of CD44 on rheumatoid synovial fluid ... -
Leukocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) and CD44 are signalling molecules for cytoskeleton-dependent morphological changes in activated T cells
(Oxford University Press, 1995)Signaling through the leukocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) molecule has previously been shown to induce homotypic aggregation in T cells and to induce cytoskeletal changes in T lymphoma cells. In this study we ... -
Helicobacter pylori increases proliferation of gastric epithelial cells
(BMJ, 1996)The direct and indirect effects of helicobacter pylori on cell kinetics of gastric epithelial cell line AGS were investigated by flow cytometric analysis of Ki-67 positive cells and by MTT assay. Flow cytometric analysis ...
