Premature prelabor rupture of the fetal membranes affects about 3% of pregnancies. The cause is usually infection, especially at earlier gestations. The prognosis and the risks of delivery are both much worse at earlier gestations. Before viable pregnancy, termination may be offered. Once the fetus is viable, steroids to mature the fetal lungs and antibiotics to reduce infection are the mainstays

Hormone-sensitive lipase (EC 3.1.1.79; HSL) is a key enzyme in the mobilization of fatty acids from stored triacylglycerols. HSL activity is controlled by phosphorylation of at least four serines. In rat HSL, Ser563, Ser659 and Ser660 are phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA) in vitro as well as in vivo, and Ser660 and Ser659 have been shown to be the activity-controlling sites in vitro. The ex

Social inclusion has become a central value for the country council’s habilitation activities. Habilitation should in this way not only focus on the individual’s development, but also give the individual an opportunity to participate in community life. Hereby has the care gone from controlling the individual to a perspective that is giving the individual possibilities to live an independent life.

Hip-hopen föddes som en gatukultur i South Bronx, New York, och gav röst åt svaga och utsatta grupper – i allians med islam. I dag är den en miljardindustri, där texterna har tydliga kopplingar till islam.

In this paper, physical bounds on scattering of acoustic waves over a frequency interval are discussed based on the holomorphic properties of the scattering amplitude in the forward direction. The result is given by a dispersion relation for the extinction cross section which yields an upper bound on the product of the extinction cross section and the associated bandwidth of any frequency interval

For decades, in vitro expansion of transplantable hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) has been an elusive goal. Here, we demonstrate that multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPCs), isolated from green fluorescent protein (GFP)-transgenic mice and expanded in vitro for >40-80 population doublings, are capable of multilineage hematopoietic engraftment of immunodeficient mice. Among MAPC-derived GFP+CD4

The aim of this study was to characterize impairment and subsequent recovery of postural control after spinal cord injuries. Experiments were carried out on rabbits with three types of lesion--a dorsal (D), lateral (L), or ventral (V) hemisection (HS) at T(12) level. The animals were maintaining equilibrium on a platform periodically tilted in the frontal plane. We assessed the postural limb/trunk

Within the local energy independent pseudopotential theory, a convergent supercell calculation of the position of the discrete impurity level produced by the neutral undistorted vacancy in silicon has been performed. Translational symmetry was reintroduced by placing the impurities on a Bravais lattice. The author made calculations with unit cells containing up to 2662 atoms plus vacancy. A deep l

Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most important modalities in a radiological department. This technique not only produces images that enable radiological reports with high diagnostic confidence, but it may also provide an elevated radiation dose to the patient. The radiation dose can be reduced by using advanced image reconstruction algorithms. This study was performed on a Brilliance iCT, e
