A search for supersymmetry in events with two or three low-momentum leptons and missing transverse momentum is performed. The search uses proton-proton collisions at s√ = 13 TeV collected in the three-year period 2016–2018 by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 137 fb−1. The data are found to be in a...

Despite the high use of cardioprotective medications, the risk factor control in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) is still inadequate. Guidelines identify healthy lifestyles as equally important in secondary prevention as pharmacotherapy. Here, we describe reasons for poor lifestyle adherence from the patient's perspective. In the EUROASP...
Background: Brazil has a universal public healthcare system, but individuals can still opt to buy private health insurance and/or pay out-of-pocket for healthcare. Past research suggests that Brazilians make combined use of public and private services, possibly causing double costs. This study aims to describe this dual use and assess its relations...

BackgroundPerson-centered care has been shown to be beneficial for nursing home residents. The know-how and attitude of healthcare professionals, however, can make its implementation difficult. Also, research on person-centered care with regard to medication decision-making and the medicines’ pathway in nursing homes is lacking. This study aimed to...
BACKGROUND: To gain insight into the role of plantar intrinsic foot muscles in fall-related gait parameters in older adults, it is fundamental to assess foot muscles separately. Ultrasonography is considered a promising instrument to quantify the strength capacity of individual muscles by assessing their morphology. The main goal of this study was ...
A measurement of the inclusive jet production in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at s√ = 13 TeV is presented. The double-differential cross sections are measured as a function of the jet transverse momentum pT and the absolute jet rapidity |y|. The anti-kT clustering algorithm is used with distance parameter of 0.4 (0.7) in a phase space region...

Both oral retinoid and valproate containing medicines are highly teratogenic. Their use by women of childbearing age is controlled by risk minimization measures (RMMs) introduced by the European Medicine Agency, including the pregnancy prevention programme (PPP). In 2018, the RMMs were revised as previous measures were insufficient to prevent the u...
Objective To reduce the inappropriate use of broad-spectrum antibiotics in a 1000+ bed acute tertiary care hospital by the introduction of cascade antimicrobial susceptibility reporting for Enterobacterales. Methods Over a 1-year period, we selectively suppressed reporting of susceptibility to the broad-spectrum antibiotics piperacillin-tazobactam ...
