This study focusses on the urban infrastructure for water supply in Roman Pompeii. The water distribution network of lead pipes was constructed inside the city walls, at the time when the city was connected to an aqueduct. Life for the Pompeiians changed considerably when aqueduct water started running continuously in street fountains all around the city. The study is based on previous research an
We present a new set of subjective age-of-acquisition (AoA) ratings for 299 words (158 nouns, 141 verbs) in 25 languages from five language families (Afro-Asiatic: Semitic languages; Altaic: one Turkic language: Indo-European: Baltic, Celtic, Germanic, Hellenic, Slavic, and Romance languages; Niger-Congo: one Bantu language; Uralic: Finnic and Ugric languages). Adult native speakers reported the a
Post-quantum cryptography for resisting possible attacks from malicious quantum adversaries has become one of the key topics in recent cryptographic research. Its ultimate goal is to search for efficient and secure primitives replacing the factoring- and discrete log-based schemes in service that will be broken in polynomial time by Shor’s algorithm. It is now an urgent task to complete this repla
BACKGROUND: There are conflicting reports on the effect of donor-recipient HLA matching on outcomes in heart transplantation. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of HLA-A matching relative to HLA-B and -DR matching on long-term survival in heart transplantation.METHODS: A total of 25 583 patients transplanted between 1988 and 2011 were identified from the International Socie
Background: Diabetes remission is an important outcome after bariatric surgery. The purpose of this study was to identify risk prediction models of diabetes remission after bariatric surgery. Methods: A systematic literature review was performed in MEDLINE, MEDLINE-In-Process, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases in April 2015. All English-language full-text publ
Escherichia coli strains from patients with febrile urinary tract infections (n=73) were examined for pap genotype and P fimbrial expression in relation to bacteremia and patients' background variables. Most isolates were pap(+) by DNA hybridization (n=51), and 36 were papG(IA2)(+) and 18 prsG(J96)(+) by polymerase chain reaction. The pap and papG genotypes of the infecting strain were shown to va
Collagen VI, a microfibrillar protein found in virtually all connective tissues, is composed of three distinct subunits, alpha 1(VI), alpha 2(VI), and alpha 3(VI), which associate intracellularly to form triple helical heterotrimeric monomers then dimers and tetramers. The secreted tetramers associate end-to-end to form beaded microfibrils. Although the basic steps in assembly and the structure of
Aiming for a better understanding of the interactions between water suspended cellulose fibres and metal ions, this study was focused on characterising the interactions between Ca2+. Cu2+ and two different fibre materials-a fully bleached softwood Kraft pulp, and a chemically modified fully bleached softwood Kraft fibre material. The study was conducted as a function of pH (2-7), and both in the a
We have analyzed gene expression of Escherichia coli MG1655 expressing native and engineered bacterial globin proteins, in order to identify the molecular mechanisms leading to the improved phenotypical traits relative to control cells under oxygen-limited conditions. Regulated expression of hemoglobin and flavohemoglobin proteins postponed the onset of rpoS expression relative to plasmid bearing
Objectives: To test the utility of the World Health Organization (WHO) and International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology Society (ISN/RPS) criteria for lupus nephritis (LN) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the American College of Rheumatology renal response criteria (ACR-RRC) for renal follow-up in an observational cohort. Method: All 52 biopsy-verified cases of LN during 19 years w
Increased Se intakes have been associated with decreased risk of cancer and CVD. Several mechanisms have been proposed, including antioxidant effects through selenoproteins, induction of carcinogen metabolism and effects on the blood lipid profile. In a 4 x 1 week randomised, double-blind cross-over study, healthy young men supplemented their usual diet with selenate, Se-enriched yeast, Se-enriche

SUMMARY: When Efexor(R) (venlafaxine) became available in Sweden, a therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) service was developed in the authors' laboratory. This analytical service was available to all physicians in the country. From March 1996, to November 1997, 797 serum concentration analyses of venlafaxine (VEN) and its main metabolites, O-desmethylvenlafaxine (ODV), N-desmethylvenlafaxine (NDV), a
The aim was to investigate associations between leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and mortality, and associations between desire to increase LTPA and mortality within the low LTPA group. A public health survey questionnaire was sent in 2008 to a stratified random sample of the population aged 18-80 in southernmost Sweden, yielding a 54.1% response rate. Baseline 2008 survey data with 25,464 re
