The use of explicit health benefits packages increases support for universal health care for people with high objective numeracy
… in the US. Explicit health benefits packages (HBPs) may improve support for UHC by heightening comprehensibility and increasing perceived equality through outlining the cost and scope of care. To test these hypotheses, we compared support for UHC after a HBP intervention, uninformative control, …

Mechanistic understanding of microbial desulfurization
… activity. The biocatalyst affinity for HBP is on par with that of the oil phase and about 60 times that of the aqueous phase. Inhibition of three of the four enzymes in the BDS pathway by HBP was determined to be the cause for the reduction in biocatalyst activity. This conclusion was …

Molecular and morphological studies on non-healing venous leg ulcers.
… ?-defensins, as well as heparin binding protein (HBP), a factor known to induce capillary leakage. Secreted products of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a bacterium often present in chronic ulcers, were found to induce release of HBP from human neutrophils. Chronic venous leg ulcers contained high levels …

End-Group Modified Hyperbranched Polyetherimides and Their Blends With Linear Polymers
… as a modifier for melt-processed blends, the HBP domain size was based upon end-group composition and Tg. Increasing the length of alkyl chain increased compatibility with a polyolefin matrix (PE). While no processing advantage was observed by the incorporation of HBPs, polyethylene tapes were …

An investigation and evaluation into the 'usibility' of human-computer interfaces using a typical CAD system
… traits, or habitual behaviour patterns (HBP) is presented. Proposals are given to use the HBP model in future self-adaptive interfaces. Results from experimentation to justify the model are inconclusive. Finally, a practical framework is provided for the evaluation of human-computer …

Migration of additives from thermoplastic polymers
… stabilisers containing 2-hydroxybenzophenone (HBP) moiety as a uv absorbing chromophore with varying alkyl chain lengths and sizes were prepared by known chemical synthesis. The strong absorbance of the HBP chromophore was utilized to evaluate the concentration of these stabilisers in low …

Fatores de risco e seu reconhecimento: como a ignorância e a adoção de estratégias podem influenciar no desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares
… main RF identified were low literacy (82.9%), HBP (78%), sedentary lifestyle (73.2%) and smoking (65.9%). In addition, 48.8% informed that they do not know what a RF is. CONCLUSIONS: The high prevalence and simultaneity of these RF shows the need and importance of strengthening public health …
