Attempts to satisfy the soldiers' religious needs became a British strategy to maintain military discipline among the soldiers in Europe and to avoid public unease and discontent in colonial India. Based on archival material, this article examines how the British tried to identify the religious

S-nitrosothiol-terminated Pluronic F127: Influence of microstructure on nitric oxide release

Hypothesis: Nitric oxide (NO)-releasing Pluronic F127 hydrogels (F127) containing dissolved S-nitrosothiols or pendant N-diazeniumdiolate (NONOate) groups have been described. The NO charging of these hydrogels is usually limited by their low stability or disruption of the micellar packing. S-nitrosothiol-terminated F127 may emerge as a new strategy for allowing NO delivery at different rates in b

Disentangling the contribution of hospitals and municipalities for understanding patient level differences in one-year mortality risk after hip-fracture : A cross-classified multilevel analysis in Sweden

BACKGROUND: One-year mortality after hip-fracture is a widely used outcome measure when comparing hospital care performance.
