The Fluid Intake Appraisal Inventory for low fluid intake among patients on haemodialysis: Translation and psychometric evaluation of the Danish version.

Aims And Objectives: To translate and evaluate the psychometric properties of a Danish version of the Fluid Intake Appraisal Inventory (Da-FIAI) regarding reliability and validity.

Background: Patients on haemodialysis are advised to restrict their fluid intake, which often requires patients to change their way of life and health behaviour.

Design: Cross-sectional study.

Mitochondrial localization of the OAS1 p46 isoform associated with a common single nucleotide polymorphism.

Background: The expression of 2'-5'-Oligoadenylate synthetases (OASs) is induced by type 1 Interferons (IFNs) in response to viral infection. The OAS proteins have a unique ability to produce 2'-5' Oligoadenylates, which bind and activate the ribonuclease RNase L. The RNase L degrades cellular RNAs which in turn inhibits protein translation and induces apoptosis.
