Enhancing sexual desire and experience : an investigation on the sexual correlates of gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) use
(2015-07)Various studies have dealt with gamma-hydroxybutyrate's (GHB) potential role in sexual assaults, while the sexual correlates of intentional recreational GHB use have not well been highlighted. Our study aims to explore ... -
Injecting eye-drops : a mini-review on the non-clinical misuse of Tropicamide
(2015-07)The intravenous (IV) injection of tropicamide for non-clinical purposes is a new and widespread drug trend. The aim of this study is to provide the first literature review on the topic -
South Asian and Middle Eastern patients' perspectives on medicine-related problems in the United Kingdom
(2015-08)There has been little research which specifically examines medicine use among South Asian (SA) and Middle Eastern (ME) groups, although evidence suggests that medicine-related needs may be poorly met for these groups. To ... -
Medication beliefs are associated with phosphate binder non-adherence in hyperphosphatemic haemodialysis patients
(2015-09)OBJECTIVES: Patients with end-stage kidney disease receiving haemodialysis (HD) are at risk of cardiovascular disease and bone disorders related to high levels of serum phosphate. We studied the association between medication ... -

Interactive, technology-enhanced self-regulated learning tools in healthcare education : A literature review
(2013-01)Learning technology is increasingly being implemented for programmes of blended learning within nurse education. With a growing emphasis on self-directed study particularly in post-basic education, there is a need for ... -
Characterization of the planetary boundary layer during SAMUM-2 by means of lidar measurements
(2011-09-01)Measurements with two Raman-depolarization lidars of the Meteorological Institute of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, München, Germany, performed during SAMUM-2, were used to characterize the planetary boundary layer ... -
Microphysical and optical properties of dust and tropical biomass burning aerosol layers in the Cape Verde region-an overview of the airborne in situ and lidar measurements during SAMUM-2
(2011-09-01)In the framework of the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM) airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar and in situ measurements of the particle size, aerosol mixing state and absorption coefficient were conducted. Here, ... -
In situ aerosol characterization at Cape Verde. Part 2 : Parametrization of relative humidity- and wavelength-dependent aerosol optical properties
(2011-09-01)An observation-based numerical study of humidity-dependent aerosol optical properties of mixed marine and Saharan mineral dust aerosol is presented. An aerosol model was developed based on measured optical and microphysical ... -
