The present study highlights two important parameters of flute playing and musicalexpression: Sound and Articulation

A preparation of living Arthrobacter simplex cells immobilized in polyacrylamide gel, which showed steroid-Δ1-dehydrogenase activity, was studied. The entrapped microorganisms catalyzed the transformation of cortisol to prednisolone and this reaction was followed spectrophotometrically or with the aid of thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). About 40% of t

The present study being the third volume of Variations on Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman (2020) highlights four important parameters of flute playing: Timbre, Expression, Resonance and Projection.

Aim: An increasing number of patients survive rectal cancer, resulting in more patients living with the side-effects of the treatment. Exploring quality of life before and after treatment enables follow-up and additional treatment to be adjusted to the patient's needs. The aim of the study was to describe the quality of life during the 24 months following diagnosis and to identify risk factors for

Abstract: Patients with colorectal cancer may lack information about the disease and treatment. In 2017, a group consultation before start of surgery was introduced at a university hospital in western Sweden to inform about the disease, treatment, and ongoing scientific studies. The primary aim of this study was to explore the experience of the patients attending the group consultation. Based on s

Aim: The factors that influence a patient's experience of a colostomy are not known. The aim of this study was to characterise stoma function, stoma-related bother and acceptance among patients operated for rectal cancer and to investigate if there were any preoperative personal factors with predictive impact on long-term stoma-related bother. Methods: The QoLiRECT (Quality of Life in RECTal cance

Aim: This study aimed to investigate if younger age at diagnosis of colorectal cancer was associated with a diagnostic delay. The secondary objective was to evaluate if symptomatology varied with age. Method: The study population consisted of the cohorts from two prospective multicentre studies conducted in Sweden and Denmark, the QoLiRECT and QoLiCOL studies. These studies investigated the qualit

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate if a delay in a patient's first contact with a healthcare professional, and any subsequent delay in diagnosis, affected self-assessed quality of life prior to start of treatment for rectal cancer. Method: Questionnaires were administered when patients had been informed of the diagnosis and planned treatment. The primary end-point was self-assessed qual

Aim: Patients with rectal cancer may undergo treatment such as surgery and (chemo)radiotherapy. Before treatment, patients are informed of different options and possible side-effects. The aim of the study was to evaluate the patients’ experience of communication with healthcare personnel at time of diagnosis and after one year. Method: A total of 1085 patients from Denmark and Sweden were included

Background: Several factors and patient characteristics influence the risk of surgical wound dehiscence and incisional hernia after midline laparotomy. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a specified, or not specified, suture quota in the operative report affects the incidence of surgical wound complications and to describe the previously known risk factors for these complications

In this article we discuss the notions of social sustainability and universal design by reflecting on a particular type of architectural element in common space, namely the “social staircases” that serve as multifunctional spaces beyond mere transportation, aiming at social interaction. Through empirical examples, including a detailed analysis of a newly built housing project in Sweden, renowned fIn this article we discuss the notions of social sustainability and universal design by reflecting on a particular type of architectural element in common space, namely the “social staircases” that serve as multifunctional spaces beyond mere transportation, aiming at social interaction.

Absurd (derived from surdus, or deaf, in Latin): that which cannot be heard or is contradictory to reason.This artistic research project questions the ways we work with sound, using a methodology derived from the absurd as a tool for innovation. The scientific roots of sound as a physical phenomenon are rarely disputed, whether by sound artists, sound designers, sound technicians, or even composer

Genomic manipulation of Yersinia ruckeri, a pathogen of salmonid fish species, is essential forunderstanding bacterial physiology and virulence. Here, we present a protocol for genomicrecombineering in Y. ruckeri, a species reluctant to standard genomic engineering, using CRISPRCas12a coupled with the l Red system. We describe steps for identifying protospacer guides,preparing repair template plasGenomic manipulation of Yersinia ruckeri, a pathogen of salmonid fish species, is essential for understanding bacterial physiology and virulence.

We've long focused on the green transition, discussing various systems emphasizing the technical aspects of transitioning our lives. Yet, as many people experience anxiety about climate change, other, more existential perspectives are rising to the surface. Questions such as What is a good life? becomes more pressing as we begin to feel the effects of climate change also in our part of the world.

The invention relates to re-engineering of a natural microbial syringe for loading of effector proteins that are not naturally found as cargo of the specific syringe. The cargo, that is one or more effector protein and proteins required for packing, can be up to 300 kDa and can be proteins such as toxins, therapeutic proteins, and gene modification tools. The re-engineering of the natural syringe
