We report karyotypic features of 106 short-term cultured oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCC), 51 new and 55 previously reported cases, with clonal chromosome aberrations. The major cytogenetic findings were as follows: simple karyotypic changes were present in 38 cases (36%) and 68 tumors (64%) displayed complex karyotypes. The most common numerical changes were +7, +8, +9, +16, +18, +20, and -4,
The contractile and relaxant effects of the different P2 receptors were characterized in the rat isolated mesenteric artery by use of extracellular nucleotides, including the stable pyrimidines uridine 5'-O-thiodiphosphate (UDPbetaS) and uridine 5'-O-3-thiotriphosphate (UTPgammaS). The selective P2X receptor agonist, alphabeta-methylene-adenosine triphosphate (alphabeta-MeATP) stimulated a potent
Gelatin, derived from the collagen triple helix, is the most widely used functional biopolymer and a prototype for studies of physical gels. Gelatin gels have also served as models for soft biological tissue in efforts to elucidate the molecular basis of the magnetic relaxation phenomena that govern magnetic resonance image contrast. Yet, the microstructure, hydration, and magnetic relaxation beha
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to report an initial experience with the endovascular repair of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. Complications and intermediate-term morphologic changes were identified with the intent of altering patient selection and device design. METHODS: Endografts were placed into 25 patients at high-risk for conventional surgical repair over a 3(1/2)-year period. D
Abstract in Danish Benign paroksysmal positionel vertigo viser sig ved kraftige rotatoriske svimmelhedsanfald, når patienten bevæger sit hoved i bestemte stillinger. Tilstanden er, som navnet udsiger, benign, men medfører oftest væsentlig morbiditet. Fritflydende otolitter (ørekrystaller) antages at sedimentere i buegangene ved hovedbevægelser. Herved påvirkes cupula hydrodynamisk og dette medføreBenign paroxysmal positional vertigo presents with brief, episodic, positioning-provoked vertigo and characteristic findings on Dix-Hallpike and other positional tests. This article is based on a systematic review of the literature and describes epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic positional tests and treatment using canalith repositioning, liberatory and 360 degrees rotation manoeuvr
The O 1s photoelectron satellite spectrum of water has been recorded with high resolution and some vibrational structures were detected. The electronic and vibrational structures observed in the experimental spectrum are well interpreted with the aid of the molecular ab initio calculations based on the symmetry adapted cluster-configuration interaction (SAC-CI) method.

This paper describes a low-distortion wide-band CMOS direct digital RF amplitude modulator, which uses a 10-bit linear interpolation current-steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and a Gilbert-cell-based mixer to generate an amplitude modulated RF signal directly. The linear interpolation increases the attenuation of the DAC's image components. The reconstruction filter is, therefore, elimina
After time-consuming and costly investigations, patients with neck metastases from an occult primary often receive unnecessarily large radiation volumes to treat a possible origin in the nasopharynx. In this study a colorimetric antisense Epstein-Barr early ribonucleoprotein 1 (EBER1) oligonucleotide probe specific for Epstein-Barr virus RNA was hybridized in situ to metastatic tissue obtained fro
The physical workload after the introduction of new technology, i.e. mechanical versus manual deboning of poultry was studied with respect to force requirements, work postures and repetitive movements of the hand. Thirteen healthy women were studied during manual and mechanical deboning using electromyography (EMG), force recordings, observer based force ratings and electrogoniometers. The muscula
Extravasated endogenous serum albumin and fibrinogen were identified immunohistochemically in coronal brain sections from normotensive Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) after permanent ligation of the right middle cerebral artery. Infarcts were seen in all the SHR but only in 6 out of 14 WKY. Six hours after ligation, extravasated proteins were located primarily wit
The charge distribution around the VO bonds in V2O5, V6O13, and V2O4 was calculated by using an empirical formula. The same expression was also used to calculate the oxygen bond strengths on the surface. The surfaces of lower oxides were treated as though they were in an oxidized state which is believed to correspond to the conditions in oxidation and ammoxidation processes. The result is that O2−
AbstractOBJECTIVE. To test the hypothesis that exposure to thermal-degradation products of polyurethane (PUR), particularly isocyanates, induced nasal inflammation.METHODS. Thirty-eight workers -14 with a history of work-related nasal symptoms (WRS/Nose), and 15 referents without such history - exposed to sprayed and heated PUR glue, were studied with regard to biomarkers of isocyanate exposure [4
Popular Abstract in Swedish Användningen av informations och kommunikationsteknik (IKT eller IT) påverkar vårt sätt att kommunicera i arbetslivet. Det underlättar distansarbete och skapar möjligheter till s.k. virtuella möten - att samarbeta utan att träffas fysiskt. Detta kan i sin tur påverka behovet av pendlings- och tjänsteresor, genom att vi får tillgång information, en funktion eller en tjänInformation and Communication Technologies change the way we work and communicate, enabling us to telework and to have virtual meetings - collaborating without a physical meeting. This can influence the need for commuting and business travel by provision of access to an activity without mobility - virtual mobility. The large environmental impact of travel makes this potential travel reduction inte
