    Author : S.Nurmaya Musa; Ou Tang; Jan Olhager; David Zhang; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Supply chain risk management; risk analysis; risk control; co-citation; system dynamics; modelling;

    Abstract : Supply chains have expanded rapidly over the decades, with the aim to increase productivity, lower costs and fulfil demands in emerging markets. The increasing complexity in a supply chain hinders visibility and consequently reduces one’s control over the process. READ MORE

  2. 2. Urinary tract infections in pregnancy : studies in vivo and in vitro

    Author : Musa Sekikubo; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) in pregnant women is increased and predisposes them to acute pyelonephritis together with poor pregnancy outcomes. Increased frequency of micturition, nocturia and lower abdominal discomfort are common non-specific complaints during pregnancy, which render clinical diagnosis of UTI inaccurate. READ MORE

  3. 3. Probabilistic Stability Analysis of Underground Mine Excavations

    Author : Musa Adebayo Idris; Tarcísio Celestino; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : The creation of underground mine excavation disturbs the original state of the rock mass surrounding the excavation which often leads to instability of the excavation. This poses a threat to the safety of personnel and equipment in and around such excavations. READ MORE

  4. 4. Plantaricins as a novel group of antibacterial compounds and enhancers of antibiotics

    Author : Amani Musa; Hazem Khalaf; Torbjörn Bengtsson; Elena Vikström; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bacteriocin; antimicrobial peptide; plantaricin; antibiotic resistance; PLNC8 αβ; ESKAPE pathogens;

    Abstract : Antibiotics have revolutionized medicine, however, the rapid development of an-tibiotic resistance among bacteria is diminishing their efficacy. Antimicrobial pep-tides produced by Lactobacillus plantarum, i.e., plantaricins, are considered prom-ising alternatives to antibiotics against infections. READ MORE

  5. 5. Clinical characteristics and prognosis of peripartum cardiomyopathy

    Author : Kamilu Musa Karaye; Michael Henein; Krister Lindmark; Maria Schaufelberger; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : peripartum cardiomyopathy; characteristics; survival; selenium; RV dysfunction; Cardiology; kardiologi;

    Abstract : Background:Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is an incompletely understood disease that causes significant morbidity and mortality in many parts of the world, including Northern Nigeria. The aims of this Thesis were: [1] to determine if selenium deficiency, serum ceruloplasmin and traditional birth practices are risk factors for PPCM, in Kano, Nigeria; [2] to describe the one year survival and left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) in a group of patients with PPCM from three referral hospitals in Kano, Nigeria; [3] to identify potential electrocardiographic (ECG) predictors of PPCM; and [4] to assess right ventricular systolic dysfunction (RVSD) and remodelling in a cohort of PPCM patients in Kano, Nigeria.
