Sweet dreams: How mini-invasive surgery tackles obstructive sleep apnea
1University of Copenhagen, BRIC Biotech Research & Innovation Centre, Anders Lund Group, Ole Maaløes Vej 5, 2200, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Abstract:
In this issue of the Biomedical Journal we uncover how the discovery of tyrosine phosphorylation thirty years ago led to the recent development of potent cancer drugs. Furthermore we learn about the state of the art of surgery for obstructive sleep apnea and how modern automated hematology could be used to detect various pathologies. Finally we discuss the risk factors for hospital-acquired Clostridium difficile infection and how to minimize ultrasonic motor-induced magnetic resonance imaging artifacts.
