The EU-project United4Health: User-centred design of an information system for a Norwegian telemedicine service.
2015
Introduction Organizational changes of health care services in Norway brought to light a need for new clinical pathways. This study presents the design and evaluation of an information system for a new telemedicine service for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients after hospital discharge. Methods A user-centred design approach was employed composed of a workshop with end-users, two user tests and a field trial. For data collection, qualitative methods such as observations, semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire were used. Results User workshop’s outcome informed the implementation of the system initial prototype, evaluated by end-users in a usability laboratory. Several us…
Telemedicine: Economic and clinical evaluation of the management of ischemic stroke
2017
Summary Introduction Ischemic stroke (IS) is a therapeutic emergency that requires prompt care in a stroke unit (SU). In order to reduce regional inequalities and to promote uniformity in access to this technique, which is effective when carried out quickly, telemedicine-assisted thrombolysis was developed in Burgundy within the Telestroke system. At the moment, no study compared costs (i.e. expenditures) and revenues (i.e. funding) associated with the management of patients presenting an IS in Burgundy after the implementation of the Telestroke system according to the management strategy: patients undergoing thrombolysis directly in a SU or Tele-thrombolysis in a local hospital (LH) receiv…

However, the degree of te…
Could telemedicine enhance traditional medicine practices?
2014
International audience; In developing countries, telemedicine and mobile health tools promise to enhance access to high-quality healthcare, to support communication of medical information and to assist pharmacovigilance processes. In this article, we provide some arguments on the potential of telemedicine and mobile health (mHealth) applications to improve the delivery of health care in rural African regions. Specifically, the development of mobile telemedicine could help to lay the foundations of a healthcare approach integrating modern medical knowledge with ancient medical practices on the African continent. Access to information and communication technology (ICT), technical devices or p…

snoRNPs Regulate Telomerase Activity in Neuroblastoma and Are Associated with Poor Prognosis
2013
AbstractAmplification of the MYCN oncogene is strongly associated with poor prognosis in neuroblastoma (NB). In addition to MYCN amplification, many studies have focused on identifying patients with a poor prognosis based on gene expression profiling. The majority of prognostic signatures today are comprised of large gene lists limiting their clinical application. In addition, although of prognostic significance,most of these signatures fail to identify cellular processes that can explain their relation to prognosis. Here, we determined prognostically predictive genes in a data set containing 251 NBs. Gene Ontology analysis was performed on significant genes with a positive hazard ratio to …
tert-Butyl N-benzyl-N-[4-(4-fluorobenzoylmethyl)-2-pyridyl]carbamate
2008
In the crystal structure of the title compound, C25H25FN2O3, the pyridine ring makes dihedral angles of 75.1 (3), 39.4 (3) and 74.6 (3)° with the phenyl ring, the carbamate plane and the 4-fluorophenyl ring, respectively. The phenyl ring makes dihedral angles of 77.2 (3) and 23.6 (3)° with the carbamate plane and the 4-fluorophenyl ring, respectively. The 4-fluorophenyl ring is perpendicular to the carbamate plane, the dihedral angle between them being 89.5 (3)°.
tert-ButylN-(4-methyl-2-pyridyl)carbamate
2008
The crystal structure of the title compound, C11H16N2O2, contains two crystallographically independent molecules forming dimers by pairs of intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds. The two molecules are related by a pseudo-twofold axis. The dihedral angle between the pyridine ring and the carbamate plane differs in the two molecules [12.1 (3) and 3.5 (3)°].
tert-Butyl N-benzyl-N-(4-methyl-2-pyridyl)carbamate
2008
In the crystal structure of the title compound, C18H22N2O2, the pyridine ring makes dihedral angles of 83.71 (6) and 9.2 (1)° with the phenyl ring and the carbamate plane, respectively. The phenyl ring and the carbamate plane are nearly perpendicular to one another, with a dihedral angle of 87.17 (7)°.
2,4-Di-tert-butyl-6-({[2-(di-methyl-amino)-eth-yl](2-hy-droxy-benz-yl)amino}-meth-yl)phenol.
2014
The title compound, C26H40N2O2, has both its N atoms in trigonal-pyramidal geometries. The molecular structure is stabilized by O—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, C—H...π interactions lead to the formation of a supramolecular helical chain along theb-axis direction.
