The array answers to these questions forms “production–consumption debate” currently taking place examination agro–food If networks are conceptualized interactive, socio–ecological metabolic circuits linking...
Summary Background Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is a prognostic marker in patients with cirrhosis. Transient elastography measures liver stiffness (LS). Aim To assess the correlation between LS and HVPG to investigate performance of transient for diagnosis significant portal hypertension (PHT). Methods Liver was measured by Fibroscan 150 consecutive who underwent biopsy haemodynamic measurements. Usual clinical biological data were collected. Significant PHT defined as ≥10 mmHg....
Summary. Fulminant hepatitis E has not been well characterized in industrialized countries. The aim of this study was to prospectively describe patients with acute presenting as fulminant hepatic failure, i.e. encephalopathy and prothrombin index <50%. Between February 1997 April 2005, seven were diagnosed using viral RNA detection. These compared 33 a mild form (absence encephalopathy) during the same time period. Patients 65 ± 11 years old. Five active drinkers six had chronic liver...

Backgound. Patients with a mild to moderate decrease of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are at risk cardiovascular (CV) events and CV remodelling has been demonstrated in patients advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, early stages CKD the mechanisms involved these modifications have not studied. Methods. A total 104 (mean GFR 60 ± 21 ml/min/1.73 m2) had cardiac vascular ultrasound study measurement extracellular fluid by multifrequence spectroscopic bioimpedance. Results. decline...
Neurologic disorders, mainly Guillain-Barré syndrome and Parsonage–Turner (PTS), have been described in patients with hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection industrialized developing countries. We report a wider range of neurologic disorders nonimmunocompromised acute HEV infection. Data from 15 French immunocompetent were retrospectively recorded January 2006 through June 2013. The could be divided into 4 main entities: mononeuritis multiplex, PTS, meningoradiculitis, demyelinating neuropathy....
Ever since the word "sustainability" entered public discourse, concept has escaped definition. The United Nations christened years 2005–2014 "The UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development" and called upon universities "to make education sustainability a central focus higher curricula, research, physical operations, student life, outreach to local, regional, global communities." Nevertheless, indeterminacy as challenged those designing university efforts, in terms both campus...
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a functional renal failure that occurs late during cirrhosis. The prognosis extremely poor with mean survival of 1.7 wks from the time diagnosis. aim present study was to examine effects albumin and furosemide administration tailored central venous pressure (CVP) on function clinical outcome.We treated 20 consecutive patients HRS. Albumin given increase and/or maintain CVP above 3 cm H(2)O. If diuresis remained below 50 mL/h despite effective volume expansion,...
In this chapter, the authors take a close look at current discourse of food system relocalization. From perspective theories justice and neoliberalism, relocalization is wrapped up in problematic, largely unexamined, communitarian on social justice. The example for California's localized governance pesticide drift demonstrates that localization can effectively make problems invisible. also EU context, where different form emphasizes local capture rents value chain as neoliberal strategy...
