Idiopathische eosinofiele bronchopneumonie bij een cavalier king charles spaniël: een casereport en differentiaaldiagnose met Pneumocystis carinii infectie Ghent University
The present case describes a dog with eosinophilic bronchopneumonia. The dog was presented with a history of coughing and dyspnea at the Department of Small Animal Medicine, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Ghent University. A presumptive diagnosis of Pneumocystic carinii was made based on signalment, history, clinical examination, blood work and medical imaging, and the dog was treated with trimethoprim-sulfadiazine. Because of lack of ...

Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia in patients treated for systemic autoimmune disorders Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven
Objectives: Pneumocystis jirovecii is an opportunistic fungus. Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is well known in the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected population, but in non-HIV-related immunosuppressed patients, risk factors are largely unknown. We studied the characteristics and outcome of patients treated for systemic autoimmune disorders infected with P. jirovecii, aiming to clarify risk stratification to guide ...
The seed germination spectrum of alpine plants: a global meta-analysis Meise Botanic Garden KU Leuven
Assumptions about the germination ecology of alpine plants are presently based on individual species and local studies. A current challenge is to synthesize, at the global level, the alpine seed ecological spectrum. We performed a meta-analysis of primary data from laboratory experiments conducted across four continents (excluding the tropics) and 661 species, to estimate the influence of six environmental cues on germination proportion, mean ...
Managing Carious Lesions: Consensus Recommendations on Terminology KU Leuven
Variation in the terminology used to describe clinical management of carious lesions has contributed to a lack of clarity in the scientific literature and beyond. In this article, the International Caries Consensus Collaboration presents 1) issues around terminology, a scoping review of current words used in the literature for caries removal techniques, and 2) agreed terms and definitions, explaining how these were decided.Dental cariesis the ...
Evidence of temperature-induced subdiffusion of water on the micrometer scale in a nafion membrane University of Antwerp
To investigate the topological features of proton transport in perfluorosulfonic membranes, we performed time-dependent 1H NMR pulsed gradient spin−echo experiments on four samples of Nafion-115 with λ = 0.5, 3.2, 5.8, and 12.4 water molecules per sulfonic group at different temperatures ranging from 278 to 348 K. A subdiffusive behavior of water, = 2Dαtα with 0.75 < α < 1, was observed above 320 K for each of the four samples. The onset ...
