Synopsis The settlement of a foundation on saturated clay is composed chiefly the “immediate” due to deformations taking place at constant volume, and “consolidation” volume reduction consequent upon dissipation pore pressures. This latter component therefore dependent pressures set up by load, these are themselves type clay. An approximate theory described which takes account clay; comparisons with observed settlements in number practical cases show be an improvement existing methods...
Synopsis The present Paper describes a procedure for estimating the danger of base failure in strutted excavation clay. Terzaghi and Tschebotarioff have previously given formulae such calculations, but these are limited to shallow excavations. On basis familiar bearing capacity calculations foundations on clay new approach problem is developed, which critical depth an by: where s y undrained shear strength density clay, respectively. N c dimensionless coefficient depending form excavation,...
Background Although uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) are often self-limiting, most patients will be prescribed antibiotic treatment. We assessed whether treatment with ibuprofen was non-inferior to pivmecillinam in achieving symptomatic resolution by day 4, a non-inferiority margin of 10%. Methods and findings This randomized, controlled, double-blind trial. recruited from 16 sites general practice setting Norway, Sweden, Denmark. Non-pregnant women aged 18–60 years presenting...
Field studies at the Dead Sea, Israel, and in Oslo have indicated that serious errors may be introduced estimating permeability of fine-grained clay soils using situ tests if excessive water pressures are used, a fact already appreciated by rock petroleum engineers. Model laboratory London confirmed very low must employed mathematical analysis has been developed to indicate factors which influence allowable pressure. By inducing fracture existing stresses ground estimated. Des études sur...
AbstractHarmful drug interactions may occur if one alters the effect of another drug. During course year, about one-third population are exposed to concurrent use two or more drugs (polypharmacy). On average, 15% individuals with polypharmacy carrying a risk potential interactions. Elderly patients at highest and should therefore be kept under intensified monitoring. Objective - To analyse prevalence interactions, identify particularly prone interaction. Design Database study (Odense...
Synopsis The Paper describes a series of tests with artificially sedimented clays. experiments proved that if clay is in salt water and later subjected to hydraulic gradient resulting leaching out the salt, undrained shear strength will be reduced its sensitivity increase. If deposited fresh water, two three times as high one water. Le manuscrit décrit une série d'épreuves faites avec des argiles sedimentées d'une manière artificielle. Les expériences démontrbrent que, au cas où argile est...
To describe utilization of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in Denmark during 1993-2002, with special emphasis on oxcarbazepine, and to assess probable indications for AED use.We retrieved prescription data from Odense University Pharmacoepidemiological Database, Funen County, (population 2002: 472,869). Within each calendar year we estimated period prevalence, incidence rate monotherapy rate. Based co-medication defined 'epilepsy' when only AEDs were prescribed, 'pain' co-prescription opioids,...
To identify patient- and practice-related factors associated with potential drug interactions.A register analysis study in general practices the county of Funen, Denmark. Prescription data were retrieved from a population-based prescription database (Odense University Pharmacoepidemiologic Database, OPED) covering prescriptions to all inhabitants All individuals exposed concurrent use two or more drugs (polypharmacy) identified. Combinations interactions registered classified as major,...
WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT • A recent meta‐analysis has suggested an increased risk of cancer among users angiotensin receptor blockers. STUDY ADDS Within the limitations observational study there is no difference in incidence between drugs affecting renin‐angiotensin system and other antihypertensives. No consistent dose or duration dependency could be demonstrated for reeptor blockers converting enzyme inhibitors. AIMS clinical trials a small excess cancers persons who had...
Excessive use of antibiotics is worldwide the most important reason for development antimicrobial resistance. As antibiotic resistance may spread across borders, high prevalence countries serve as a source bacterial with low prevalence. Therefore, an issue potential serious impact on all countries. Initiatives have been taken to improve quality prescribing in primary care, but only few studies designed determine effectiveness multifaceted strategies different practice setting. The aim this...
We aimed to describe the use of systemic antibiotics among children in Denmark.National data on drug Denmark were extracted from Danish National Prescription Database. used prescription for all aged 0 11 years January 1, 2000 December 31, 2012.We obtained 5,884,301 prescriptions issued 1,206,107 children. The most single substances phenoxymethylpenicillin (45%), amoxicillin (34%) and erythromycin (6%). highest incidence rate antibiotic treatment episodes was observed younger than 2 at 827...
Unnecessary prescribing of antibiotics is a major public health concern. General practitioners (GPs) prescribe most antibiotics, often for upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs), and have in general been shown to more women. No studies examined the influence patient gender on unnecessary antibiotic prescribing.To study possible difference prescriptions URTIs practice; assess whether explained by demand antibiotics.Post-hoc analysis cross-sectional including 15,022 patients with URTI...
Escherichia coli is the most common pathogen causing Urinary Tract Infections (UTI). Data from current National Surveillance program in Denmark (DANMAP) may not accurately represent prevalence of resistant E. primary care, because only urine samples complicated cases be forwarded to microbiological departments at hospitals for diagnostic examination. The aim this study was assess commonly used antimicrobial agents care a consecutive sample patients general practice. Observational carried out...
