In the course of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease, CCR5-utilizing HIV type 1 (HIV-1) variants (R5), which typically transmit infection and dominate its early stages, persist in approximately half of the infected individuals (nonswitch virus patients), while in the other half (switch virus patients), viruses using CXCR4 (X4 or R5X4) emerge, leading to rapid disease progression. Here, we u

En vanligt förekommande utmaning i högre utbildning är översiktskurser med snäva tidsramar och heterogena studentgrupper. Artikeln vill peka på den positiva potentialen i sådana omständigheter genom att presentera ett konkret exempel på ett arbetssätt som har visat sig framgångsrikt inom skådespelarutbildningens musikundervisning: tonsättningsuppgifter som konceptualiseras individuellt och realise

A statistical model based on four kallikrein markers (total prostate-specific antigen [tPSA], free PSA [fPSA], intact PSA, and human kallikrein-related peptidase 2) in blood can predict risk of Gleason score ≥7 (high-grade) cancer at prostate biopsy.

Four animals were used to study renal kinetics without extracor
