Obstetric records of hospital births of children present in the Scanian Economic Demographic Database. The records contain information on gestational age, birthweight, and other indicators of health of the child, as well as information on maternal health.
Orthosomycin antibiotics inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the large ribosomal subunit in the tRNA accommodation corridor, which is traversed by incoming aminoacyl-tRNAs. Structural and biochemical studies suggested that orthosomycins block accommodation of any aminoacyl-tRNAs in the ribosomal A-site. However, the mode of action of orthosomycins in vivo remained unknown. Here, by carrying ou
This study investigates the ways in which age and gender play out on the LinkedIn pages of global staffing agencies through an intersectionality lens. A discourse analysis of 437 LinkedIn posts (including visual images, captions, and comments) was conducted. This study found that the corporate discourse of diversity shaped the ways that age and gender were represented. The portrayals of age and ge
Aim: The aim of the study was to deepen the current knowledge of how patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and long-term oxygen treatment think about and expect end-of-life. Design: A qualitative design was used. Methods: A purposeful sample of 19 patients with oxygen-dependent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was obtained from the Swedish National Registry on Respiratory Failur
We study the stability of oscillation in two different multi-mode harmonic oscillators by means of Barkhausen’s criterion, involving a minimum of mathematical machinery in favor of a more intuitive, circuit-based approach. The results of the theoretical analysis match very closely those obtained through transient simulations, confirming occasionally surprising outcomes of the latter.
The recurrence rebuild and retrieval method (R3M) is proposed in this paper to accelerate the electromagnetic (EM) validations of large-scale digital coding metasurfaces (DCMs). R3M aims to accelerate the EM validations of DCMs with varied codebooks, which involves the analysis of a group of similar but not identical structures. The method transforms general DCMs to rigorously periodic arrays by r
Time to AIDS in HIV-2 infection is approximately twice as long compared to in HIV-1 infection. Despite reduced viremia, HIV-2-infected individuals display signs of chronic immune activation. In HIV-1-infected individuals, B-cell hyperactivation is driven by continuous antigen exposure. However, the contribution of viremia to B-cell perturbations in HIV-2-infected individuals remains largely unexpl
Salinity tolerance-associated phenotypes of 35 EMS mutagenized wheat lines originating from BARI Gom-25 were compared. Vegetative growth was measured using non-destructive image-based phenotyping. Five different NaCl concentrations (0 to 160 mM) were applied to plants 19 days after planting (DAP 19), and plants were imaged daily until DAP 38. Plant growth, water use, leaf Na+, K+ and Cl− content,
