An osteopontin‐derived peptide inhibits human hair growth at least in part by decreasing fibroblast growth factor‐7 production in outer root sheath keratinocytes

British Journal of Dermatology, 2020
Given that unwanted hair growth (hirsutism, hypertrichosis) can cause major psychological distress, new pharmacological treatment strategies with safe and effective hair growth inhibitors that do not destroy the hair follicle (HF) and its stem cells need

Layers of protection analysis for human factors (LOPA‐HF)

Process Safety Progress, 2002
AbstractProcess hazard analysis (PHA) performed to meet the requirements of OSHA and EPA regulations must address human factors. Both the human failures that can cause accidents and the human factors that can influence them must be addressed. This is important because it is generally believed that 50% to 90% of process accidents can be attributed to ...

Application of Analytic Hierarchy Process to Identify the Most Influencing Human Factors (HFs) and Performance Influencing Factors (PIFs) in Process Safety Accidents

SPE/AAPG Africa Energy and Technology Conference, 2016
ABSTRACT Numerous studies suggest that 80% of accidents in hydrocarbon processing industries are as a result of human factors (HFs). While a lot is known of human factor influence to process accident, the effects of performance influencing factors (PIFs) on human factors in process accidents is not yet well understood.

Theory-Based Directional-Testng: Revisiting a Primary Option for Efficient Human-Factors/Ergonomics (HF/E) Studies

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2004
This study revisited use of directional-models/analyses in HF/E. Surveys revealed both that: these models/analyses are not widely used in studies reported in HF/E journals, and practitioners avoid them due to misconceptions regarding their scientific validity.

IgA specific helper factor (alpha HF) in human colostrum.

Clinical and experimental immunology, 1987
Induction of immunoglobulin secretion by human colostrum was investigated using human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) and Epstein-Barr virus transformed human B lymphoblastoid cells. Stimulation of the cells with colostrum induced IgA plaque forming cells but neither IgG nor IgM plaque forming cells, indicating the occurrence of IgA specific helper ...

0156 Participant feedback as a driver for change: Analysis of 1 year’s feedback at the Scottish Centre for Simulation and Clinical Human Factors (SCSC^HF)

Posters Without Presentations, 2014
Background/context According to Issenberg et al.1 feedback to participants is the most important aspect of simulation-based medical education (SBME). One might postulate that feedback from participants may be one of the most important aspects of simulation centre/programme development.
