BACKGROUND: Some children born small for gestational age (SGA) experience supra-physiological insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) concentrations during GH treatment. However, measurements of total IGF-I concentrations may not...
Optimizing Patient Management and Adherence for Children Receiving Growth Hormone.
Poor adherence with growth hormone (GH) therapy has been associated with worse clinical outcomes, which in children relates specifically to their linear growth and loss of quality of life. The "360° GH in Europe" meeting, held...

Growth hormone (GH) can profoundly influence cardiac function. While GH excess causes well-defined cardiac pathology, fewer data are available regarding the more subtle cardiac changes seen in GH deficiency (GHD). This...
Farmers’ perceptions of the effectiveness of the Cocoa Disease and Pest Control Programme (CODEPEC) in Ghana and its effects on poverty reduction
The study examined the contribution of the Cocoa Disease and Pest Control Programme (CODAPEC), which is a cocoa production-enhancing government policy, to reducing poverty and raising the living standards of cocoa farmers in...
Point process simulation of generalised inverse Gaussian processes and estimation of the Jaeger integral
In this paper novel simulation methods are provided for the generalised inverse Gaussian (GIG) L\'{e}vy process. Such processes are intractable for simulation except in certain special edge cases, since the L\'{e}vy density...

Glycans are major nutrients for the human gut microbiota (HGM). Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) comprise a heterogenous group of plant glycans in which a β1,3-galactan backbone and β1,6-galactan side chains are conserved....
New orientation effect in piezo-active 1-3-type composites
This paper demonstrates the influence of the mutual orientation of the poling direction of single-crystal and ceramic components on the properties of 1-0-3 composites containing two ferroelectric components and a...
Fouling resistant 2D boron nitride nanosheet – PES nanofiltration membranes
