Draft genome sequence of <i>Chelonobacter oris</i> strain 1662^T, associated with respiratory disease in Hermann’s tortoises

Chelonobacter oris 1662(T) is a type strain of the recently described species of the Pasteurellaceae family. The strain was isolated from the choanae of a captive tortoise with signs of respiratory tract infection. The genome reported here is approximately 2.6 Mb in size and has a G+C content of 47.1%

Udgange på undersøgende matematik

I denne artikel præsenteres og analyseres udvalgt empiri knyttet til opsamling og fællesgørelse af elevers undersøgende arbejde i matematik på mellemtrinnet. Empirien er indsamlet i projektet “Kvalitet i Dansk og Matematik” (KiDM) som gennem et pilotforløb og tre interventionsforløb på 45 skoler har tilrettelagt særlige undervisningsforløb af et halvt års varighed hvor der har været fokus på undersøgende og dialogisk matematikundervisning. Gennem projektet har vi indsamlet empiri både under besøg på skolerne, via referater fra faggruppemøder og gennem opsamlingsmøder i regionerne. I denne artikel kategoriserer og analyserer vi lærernes vanskeligheder ved at samle op på elevernesundersøgende arbejde

Fatal left cardiac failure caused by external compression of left internal mammary artery graft in an accident: a case report

We report for the first time a case of a 54 years old man with a fatal motorcycle accident due to an external bleeding compression of left internal mammary artery graft to the left anterior descending artery. The possibility of cardiac failure in trauma caused by external compression or traumatic injury of the graft should be considered in people who previously underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery

How does HPV vaccination status relate to risk perceptions and intention to participate in cervical screening?:a survey study

Abstract Background Women in several countries will soon be covered by two preventive programmes targeting cervical cancer: HPV vaccination and cervical screening. The HPV vaccines are expected to prevent approximately 70 % of cervical cancers. It has been speculated, that HPV vaccinated women will not attend screening because they falsely think that the vaccine has eliminated their cervical cancer risk. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between HPV vaccination status and perceptions of cervical cancer risk; perceptions of vaccine effect; and intention to participate in cervical screening. Furthermore, to investigate associations between perceptions of cervical cancer risk and intention to participate in cervical screening. Methods A random sample of Danish women from the birth cohorts 1993–1995 was invited to complete a web-based questionnaire concerning risk perceptions and intentions to participate in cervical screening. Main outcomes were: perceived lifetime-risk of cervical cancer; perceived HPV vaccine effect; and intention to participate in cervical screening. Results HPV vaccinated women more often than unvaccinated women intended to participate in screening: adjusted odds ratio (OR) for being HPV vaccinated when intending to participate in screening of 3.89 (95 % CI: 2.50–6.06). HPV vaccinated women perceived cervical cancer risk to be higher than unvaccinated women did: adjusted OR of 0.11 (95 % CI: 0.03–0.39) and 0.51 (95 % CI: 0.33–0.78) for being HPV vaccinated while having the lowest perception of risk (in two different pre-specified dichotomisations). HPV vaccinated women perceived the vaccine effect to be larger than unvaccinated women did: adjusted OR of 0.31 (95 % CI: 0.18–0.51) and 0.37 (95 % CI: 0.25–0.53) for being HPV vaccinated while having the lowest perception of vaccine effect (in two different pre-specified dichotomisations). There were no associations between perceived cervical cancer risk and intention to participate in screening. Conclusions HPV vaccinated women more often than unvaccinated women intended to participate in screening and they perceived cervical cancer risk to be higher and the vaccine effect to be larger than unvaccinated women did. However, in our analyses, risk perceptions could not explain screening intentions neither among vaccinated nor among unvaccinated women
