The degenerative process in Alzheimer´s disease (AD) follows a temporal and topographic pattern of early and accentuated involvement of temporal limbic, parietal and posterior cingulate cortices. We have studied a pedigree with four generations suffering from early onset AD linked to a presenilin-1 gene mutation. This family now contains 7 AD cases, neuropathologically confirmed in four cases of t

This article examines the Swedish test translation of Luke9:51–19:28 and Galatians, which was published by the Swedish Bible Society in2015. It analyzes how and to what extent the translators apply the fundamentaltranslation principle (moderate formal equivalence) and the six translationdirectives (on concordance, figures of speech, rhythm, modern language,gender-inclusive language, and faithfulne

Gender-inclusive language has been consciously applied in almost all significant English Bible translations over the last thirty years. It has only recently been introduced into Swedish Bible translation practices, however, with the test translation of Luke 9:51–19:28 and Galatians issued by the Swedish Bible Society. This fact signals that the next Swedish Bible translation will implement genderi

Nässelqvist’s contribution examines different models for understanding the oral delivery of New Testament writings. He finds evidence in favor of the existence in antiquity of both oral performance from memory and public reading directly from a manuscript. These types of oral delivery not only involved different delivery practices, but were also used in dissimilar settings for distinct text genres

This study comprises a continuation of the previous efforts of the authors to characterize different sources of errors in phosphor thermometry based on the determination of luminescence decays from thermographic phosphors. Whereas earlier investigations focused on point detectors utilizing different sensor technology, this work presents a comparison of four PMTs that are identical in terms of thei

The electromagnetic far field, as well as the near field, originating from light interaction with a red blood cell ~RBC! volume-equivalent spheroid, was analyzed by utilizing the T-matrix theory. This method is a powerful tool that makes it possible to study the influence of cell shape on the angular distribution ofscattered light. General observations were that the three-dimensional shape, as wel

In this work we investigate the decay of the |2p53sP03) state in neon-like ions along the isoelectronic sequence ranging from Z=10 to Z=35. In the absence of a nuclear spin, the magnetic dipole transition to |2p53sP13) is the dominating decay channel. However, for isotopes with a nuclear spin, the interaction between the nuclear magnetic dipole moment and the electronic field introduces a mixing o

Lipids have been implicated in beta-cell stimulus-secretion coupling. In such a role, lipases in beta-cells would be required to generate lipid coupling factors. We have shown previously that glucose stimulates lipolysis in rodent islets. In addition, lipolysis and diacylglycerol lipase activity in islets are abolished by orlistat, an irreversible lipase inhibitor with a broad specificity for subs

Models to predict chloride ingress are numerous but all of them have serious limitations that restrict the present use for long term predictions. An overview is given of the fundamental differences between various models, from those based on Fick's 2nd with constant or time-dependent diffusion coefficients and surface chloride contents, to those based on chloride transport equations with or withou

OBJECTIVE: To determine ovarian blood flow characteristics using three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound.METHODS: We examined 30 patients (30 cycles) prior to the start of their in vitro fertilization treatment in the late follicular phase using three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound. The volume, vascularization index, flow index, vascularization flow index, mean grayness and the presence o

OBJECTIVE: Effect of the side of ovulation on uterine, ovarian, and follicular blood flow parameters and various hormone levels.DESIGN: Prospective, observational study.SETTING: Fertility Clinic, St. George's Hospital.PATIENT(S): Nineteen women with regular menstrual cycles. Pulsed Doppler measurements and serum hormonal concentrations during midfollicular, periovulatory, and midluteal phase for t

OBJECTIVE: To assess intraindividual variation of follicle stimulating hormone, luteinising hormone, estradiol, progesterone, inhibin A, and inhibin B in three successive ovulatory cycles correlated with transvaginal ultrasound monitored morphological changes in the ovary.METHODS: Serial transvaginal color and pulsed Doppler ultrasound and serum hormone analysis were performed during midfollicular
