Endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS) represent <10% of all uterine sarcomas. Cytogenetic data on this tumor type are limited to 32 cases, and the karyotypes are often complex, but the pattern of rearrangement is nevertheless clearly nonrandom with particularly frequent involvement of chromosome arms 6p and 7p. Recently, a specific translocation t(7;17)(p15;q21) leading to the fusion of two zinc fing

Oral complications are common in patients with haematological malignancies who undergo chemotherapy treatment. A pilot study including 16 haematological patients was carried out to evaluate the oral status using an Oral Assessment Guide (OAG) and to test the reliability of the OAG. The oral assessments were made daily by registered nurses at a Department of Internal Medicine in Sweden. Once a week

This paper presents a quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) based on the coupling of two LC-tank VCOs. A simplified theoretical analysis for the oscillation frequency and phase noise displayed by the QVCO in the 1/f/sup 3/ region is developed, and good agreement is found between theory and simulation results. A prototype for the QVCO was implemented in a 0.35-/spl mu/m CMOS process with

Vaccination against the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) has recently been approved as a means to prevent cervical cancer. The Swedish Institute for Infectious Disease Control and the Swedish Society for Obstetrics & Gynecology arranged a consensus conference to discuss design of future cervical cancer prevention programs. Conclusions include that preventive programs should aim at eradication of onc

Lenodus variabilis occurs in an interval in the lower to middle Kundan Stage which includes the Arenig-Llanvirn boundary. The lower part of its range constitutes the L. variabilis Zone, the upper part, where it co-occurs with Yangtze-placognathus crassus, making up the Y. crassus Zone. The conodont faunas of these two consecutive conodont biozones have been investigated in 14 sections from south,

New magnetic DC septa are designed for the upgraded Max I and the new Max III storage rings, respectively. The new septum is made magnetically symmetric with a magnetic flux filter in the septum nose, The residual stray fields in the ring tube become almost linear and the usually strong stray fields close to the septum sheet are eliminated. If necessary a final correction of the linear part could

The article comprises the second part (Nostocales) of our study of little known planktic and metaphytic cyanoprokaryotes (cyanophytes, cyanobacteria) from ponds, lakes and water reservoirs in East and Southern Africa. The morphology and variation of 17 species was studied, and comments about their ecology and taxonomy are included. Seven new species are defined: Anabaena austro-africana, A. carmic

Popular AbstractI Sverige har utbildningspolitiken under de senaste decennierna fått en viktig roll i att främja målsättningar också inom en rad andra politikområden, bland annat det regionalpolitiska. Högskolorna skall bidra till att utjämna sociala och ekonomiska skillnader mellan olika grupper i befolkningen, stimulera innovationsförmågan i näringslivet och generera nya företag. UndersökningarnImportant goals in Swedish higher education policy, from the late 1960s all through the 1990s, have been to increase the accessibility to higher education and to increase the supply of newly educated labour in all parts of the country. These goals are based on the assumption that geographical distance matters. Geographical distance to universities is thought to act as a barrier to university entra

This statement provides a concise list of diagnostic terms for ECG interpretation that can be shared by students, teachers, and readers of electrocardiography. This effort was motivated by the existence of multiple automated diagnostic code sets containing imprecise and overlapping terms. An intended outcome of this statement list is greater uniformity of ECG diagnosis and a resultant improvement

The compaction and aggregation of DNA induced by cationic surfactants was studied by dynamic light scattering (DLS). Furthermore, the effect on surfactant-compacted DNA of the addition of nonionic amphiphiles and salt was studied. When using sufficiently low amounts of DNA and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), compacted DNA molecules could be monitored by the appearance of a band characterize

Web breaks in the dryer section of a paper machine cause loss of production and quality problems. After a web break, the steam pressure in the cylinders must be reduced to avoid overheating. The goal of this project is to determine optimal steam pressure trajectories during web breaks, so that the production is restarted with the same drying properties of the cylinder as before the break. A detail

New dynamic, semistatic, and fully static single-clock CMOS latches and flipflops are proposed. By removing the speed and power bottlenecks of the original true-single-phase clocking (TSPC) and the existing differential latches and flipflops, both delays and power consumptions are considerably reduced. For the nondifferential dynamic, the differential dynamic, the semistatic, and the fully static

The lamellar mesophase formed by surfactant 1,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT) in deuterated water is mixed with poly(dimethylacrylamide) (PDMAA) polymers of low molecular weight ((M) over bar (n) = (2-20) x 10(3)). The mixtures separate into microphases (lamellar plus isotropic polymer solution). Their microstructures are studied by microscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS),

Partial migration is often considered a transitory stage between migration and residency, and whether partial migrants take weather conditions into account during migration is largely unknown. To assess whether partial migrants differ from regular migrants in their responses to weather, we compared the migratory intensity of a partial migrant, the Blue Tit (Cyanistes caeruleus), with more regular
