Cutaneous non‐tuberculous mycobacterial infections: A retrospective study of 94 cases from Germany

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background Cutaneous non‐tuberculous mycobacterial infections (NTM) remain a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The aim of this study was to characterize cutaneous NTM infections in Germany over a 24‐year‐period. Patients and Methods 73 patients with cutaneous NTM infections diagnosed at 17 different German University Hospitals from 2000 ...

Ecological sustainability and urban form [PDF]

One controversial idea present in the debate on urban sustainability is that urban sprawl is an ecological stressing problem. We have tested this popular assumption by measuring the ecological footprint of commuting and housing of the 163 municipalities ...

Constitutional symptoms and response to Penicillin G in erysipelas and cellulitis – a monocentric, retrospective, explorative study

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background: Erysipelas, caused by streptococci, should be treated with penicillin, while uncomplicated cellulitis (phlegmon), often caused by Staphylococcus aureus, requires penicillinase‐resistant beta‐lactam antibiotics, which have a higher risk of adverse effects. Distinguishing between these infections is important.

Monocentric urban simulation models: getting closer to fractal properties and landscape representation

, 2015
Urban growth generates spatial patterns that in many cases demonstrate fractal properties. Geocomputational models, particularly cellular automata and spatial agent-based simulation models have been used over the last 20 years to generate urbanisation patterns with the aim to replicate at best observed expansion footprints, including matching observed ...

Assessment of Oral Health Literacy and Influencing Factors: Retrospective Analysis of Patients Treated by Dental Students

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Oral health literacy (OHL) plays a crucial role in determining oral health outcomes, particularly in preventing and managing oral health issues. It is primarily developed through communication between dentists and patients—a key focus in dental education. To enhance this training, understanding OHL in student teaching is essential.

Causes of sprawl: A portrait from space [PDF]

We study the extent to which US urban development is sprawling and consider what determines differences in sprawl across space. Using remote-sensing data to track the evolution of land use on a grid of 8.7 billion 30x30 metre cells, we measure sprawl as ...

Choosing Wisely: Key Feature Examinations as a Powerful Approach to Foster Clinical Reasoning in Dental Education

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Clinical reasoning is considered a core skill for physicians, and its training should already be addressed in undergraduate medical education. At the University Medical Center Göttingen, students have been able to engage in formative key feature examinations since 2013.

The impact of metropolitan structure on commute behavior in the Netherlands: a multilevel approach [PDF]

The effect of decentralization of land uses on travel behavior remains an unresolved issue in the academic literature. Some US researchers argue that a tendency towards polycentrism is associated with decreasing commute times and distances.
