Background: Differential diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is challenging. Sineoculis homeobox homolog 1 (SIX1) is an oncogene involved in skeletal muscle differentiation. We compared protein expression patterns of SIX1 in RMS and its most common differential diagnoses. Methods: SIX1 immunohistochemistry in 36 RMS and in 33 tumors from seven differential diagnostic subtypes were evaluated. The f

Background Molecular DNA sequence data allow unprecedented advances in biodiversity assessments, monitoring schemes and taxonomic works, particularly in poorly-explored areas. They allow, for instance, the sorting of material rapidly into operational taxonomic units (such as BINs - Barcode Index Numbers), sequences can be subject to diverse analyses and, with linked metadata and physical vouchers,
Plate tectonics is a unique feature of Earth, but its proposed time of initiation is still controversial, with published estimates ranging from ca. 4.2 to 0.7 Ga. Paleomagnetic data can provide a robust argument for one essential aspect of plate tectonics: large-scale relative lateral motions of distinct, rigid crustal blocks. Previously, the oldest relative horizontal motion between two or more b
Metabolically engineered baker’s yeast can be used to produce chiral amines through whole-cell bioconversion of prochiral ketones. This study investigates the modulation of the alanine-pyruvate metabolic node to enhance reductive amination, using the stereoselective conversion of benzylacetone to (S)-1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine (MPPA) as a model reaction. Chromosomal integration of multiple copie
Introduction: After resuscitation from out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), mechanical ventilation (MV) and respiratory management are fundamental to support patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and to minimise secondary brain injury. Best practices for MV and association with clinical outcomes in patients with OHCA remain unclear. Methods and analysis: This protocol describes a pre-planned
Osteonecrosis (ON) is a common complication of glucocorticoid-based Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment, but the natural evolution and prognosis of ON lesions remain poorly understood. We describe the radiological evolution of ON lesions identified in a Nordic population-based cohort of paediatric HL patients. Magnetic resonance images of suspected ON lesions were centrally reviewed to confirm ON diag
"The Academy of St Martin in the Fields are joined by Håkan Hardenberger who will perform a programme celebrating his history with the orchestra, including Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto and a selection from his album Both Sides Now, both recorded with ASMF."These pieces were performed:Georg Philipp Telemann: Konzert für drei Trompeten, zwei Oboen, Pauken, Streicher und B.c.

Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital heart anomalyinvolving constriction of an aortic segment, associated with wall thickening of media and the formationof overlapping infolding of neointimal tissue. For thefirst time it was described by Morgagni in 1760. Thispathology represents 5% -7% of all congenital heartdiseases, with an incidence of approximately 3 casesto 10 000 neonates1. The typical
Background: Global climate change is already increasing the average temperature and direct heat exposure in many places around the world. Objectives: To assess the potential impact on occupational health and work capacity for people exposed at work to increasing heat due to climate change. Design: A brief review of basic thermal physiology mechanisms, occupational heat exposure guidelines and heat
In Ethiopia, full vaccination coverage among children aged 12–23 months has improved in recent decades. This study aimed to investigate drivers of the improvement in the vaccination coverage. The Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition technique was applied to identify the drivers using data from Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey conducted in 2000 and 2016. The vaccination coverage rose from 14.3% in 2
Aim: To assess the prevalence of neurodevelopmental problems in adolescents with severe obesity and their associations with binge eating and depression. Methods: Data were collected at inclusion in a randomised study of bariatric surgery in 48 adolescents (73% girls; mean age 15.7 ± 1.0 years; mean body mass index 42.6 ± 5.2 kg/m2). Parents completed questionnaires assessing their adolescents’ sym
PURPOSE: To describe a specific cone-rod dystrophy phenotype in a family with the homozygous c.1429G>A; p.Gly477Arg mutation in CRB1. The detailed phenotype of subjects with this specific mutation has not been described previously. METHODS: Clinical examination included full-field electroretinography and high-resolution and widefield retinal imaging and uveitis workup. Molecular genetic analysis i
Bröst- och hudcancerceller sprider sig via lymfatiska systemet och fastnar i en eller två regionala sentinel lymfnoder (SLN) där de med stor sannolikhet växer till metastaser. Därför är SLN-biopsier och relaterade histopatologiska undersökningar viktiga vid cancerdiagnostiken för att bestämma sjukdomsstatus och att från denna kunna bestämma rätt behandling. Patienter vars lymfnoder innehåller spriBreast cancer and malignant melanoma disseminate through the lymphatic system and the first metastases arise in one or two regional, sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) draining the primary tumour site. Therefore, identification and characterization of the SLNs is of major importance for cancer staging and for choice of therapy in patients. The standard clinical procedure relies on lymphoscintigraphy afte
