Moisture damage in home associates with systemic inflammation in children
Indoor Air, 2015This study investigated the association between confirmed moisture damage in homes and systemic subclinical inflammation in children. Home inspections were performed in homes of 291 children at the age of 6 years. Subclinical inflammation at the age of 6 years was assessed by measuring the circulating levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and leukocytes ...

Quantifying moisture damage at mastic–aggregate interface
International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2013This study quantifies moisture damage at the asphalt mastic–aggregate interfaces using finite element method modelling technique in ABAQUS. A model aggregate surrounded by a layer of mastic is subjected to static loads of varying magnitudes and patterns.

Moisture-associated skin damage: an overview for community nurses
British Journal of Community Nursing, 2013The harmful effects of excessive moisture on the skin are well documented. Although traditionally this has been considered as being a specific problem of continence care, it is a common problem encountered in many different patient groups. As a consequence the umbrella term moisture-associated skin damage (MASD) has been introduced to describe the ...

Moisture-associated skin damage: cause, risk and management
British Journal of Nursing, 2018Understanding the differential diagnosis between moisture-associated skin damage (MASD) and pressure ulcers (PU) ensures appropriate management and interventions are instigated at the earliest opportunity. Most damage occurring to the buttocks or sacrum is attributed to pressure, shear, excessive moisture or a combination of these factors.

Managing moisture-associated skin damage in stoma care
British Journal of Nursing, 2018Moisture-associated skin damage from stoma effluent is the most common cause of peristomal skin problems. It is important to identify the causes for any treatment to be effective. A comprehensive assessment should be undertaken using an assessment tool to document the extent of the damage in an accurate and reliable way, and to assist with developing ...

Moisture-associated skin damage: aetiology, prevention and treatment
British Journal of Nursing, 2012The concept of excessive moisture causing damage to the skin is not a new one, and provides a rationale for many fundamental nursing interventions. Although traditionally thought of as a specific problem of continence care, it is a common problem encountered in many different patient groups.

Experimental investigations of moisture damage in asphalt
2012The objective of the presented investigation was to verify findings that moisture has a negative effect on the bond force leading to a reduction of the mean maximum shear force up to 30% for long term water storage or combined pressure and short term water storage at 40°C.
