USE OF ISOTRETINOIN AMONG GIRLS AND WOMEN OF CHILDBEARING AGE AND OCCURRENCE OF ISOTRETINOIN-EXPOSED PREGNANCIES IN GERMANY: A POPULATION-BASED STUDY.

BackgroundExposure to isotretinoin during pregnancy must be avoided due to its teratogenicity, but real-world data on its use are scarce.We aimed to describe (i) isotretinoin use in women of childbearing age in Germany; (ii) the occurrence of isotretinoin-exposed pregnancies; and (iii) malformations among children exposed in utero.Methods and findi

Abstract In view of the influence of variability of low-frequency noise frequency on noise prevention in real life, we present a novel two-dimensional tunable phononic crystal plate which is consisted of lead columns deposited in a silicone rubber plate with periodic holes and calculate its bandgap characteristics by finite element method.The low-f

In response to the difficulty of satellite network management and maintenance and the urgent need for large-capacity data transmission, a software-defi ned satellite optical network cross-layer wavelength routing algorithm based on ant colony algorithm (SDNCLRWA) was proposed.The algorithm took delay and available wavelength rate as heuristic funct

PurposeNephrolithiasis is thought to be a risk factor for osteoporosis, but data assessing if osteoporosis predisposes to the risk of nephrolithiasis are lacking.The present study aims to investigate whether patients with nephrolithiasis have a prominently higher prevalence of osteoporosis than the controls and vice versa via a cumulative analysis.

Empirical studies in decentralized settings associate FLORADIX FORMULA ambiguities in the division of responsibilities between government spheres with coordination problems.This study explores the mechanisms behind this association, mainly drawing on in-depth interviews with local government officials in Poland.A typology emerges from the data.Ambi
