Background: Dissecting free tissue flaps can be challenging and time-consuming. Imaging technologies are typically used to assist with preoperative planning. However, conventional methods have limitations that could potentially be overcome by extended reality technologies. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the current use of extended reality (XR) in preoperative planning for microsurgical f
Aim: To explore the possibility of reducing the diagnostic burden in children with prenatally detected unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Methods: Children with unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction (2012–2020) were identified from a prenatal hydronephrosis registry. The frequency of adverse events, predictors for event-free follow-up beyond 1 year of age, and examination burde
This opinion piece takes Google's response to the so-called COVID-19 infodemic, as a starting point to argue for the need to consider societal relevance as a complement to other types of relevance. The authors maintain that if information science wants to be a discipline at the forefront of research on relevance, search engines, and their use, then the information science research community needs
Cystatin C, a 13 kDa-protein, is produced by most nucleated cells and is catabolized by the renal tubular cells after passing the glomerular filter. It belongs to the family 2 of the cystatin superfamily of proteins. The function of cystatin C is to regulate the activity of cysteine proteinases and cystatin C seems to be the main cysteine proteinase inhibitor of most investigated human biological
Background: Omission of breakfast results in higher glucose and lower insulin and incretin hormone levels after both lunch and dinner. Whether omission of lunch has a similar impact on the following meal is not known. Aim: This study therefore explored whether omission of lunch ingestion affects glucose, islet and incretin hormones after dinner ingestion in healthy subjects. Materials & Method
The company Victoria Milan provides an online dating service aimed at persons who are already within a committed relationship. Their marketing campaign and their slogan make your life more living, have an affair! has led to a record in amount of complaints from the public to the Swedish advertising ombudsman. Our purpose was to explore how the rhetorical construction of infidelity is characterized
Beskattning av pokervinster har inte minst under 2011 varit ett ämne för många diskussioner i media. Vissa anser att det krävs stora inslag av skicklighet för att vara duktig på poker och att det inte borde anses vara ett lotteri. Denna skicklighetsaspekt var fall för prövning i HD under 2011 i den s.k. Grebbestadsdomen. Vissa ansåg att domen skulle direkt avgöra om pokervinster skulle komma att bTaxation on poker winnings have not the least in 2011 been a topic of discussion in the media. Some believe that it requires significant element of skill to be good at poker and that it should not be considered a lottery. This skill aspect was tried in the Supreme Court in 2011 in the so-called Grebbestad verdict. Some felt that the appeal would directly determine whether poker profits would be ta
This thesis project is a design proposal for the Royal Beach Camp (RBC) education centre, located along the Trishuli River of the Dhading region in Central Nepal. The Royal Beach Camp has been undergoing a process of shifting its focus from tourism towards education over the past two years. The site continues to offer educational programs specialising in guide accreditation for rafting, canyoneer
In rodent models of Parkinson disease in which transplants of dissociated rodent and human embryonic mesencephalic tissue, rich in dopamine neurons, have been studied, only 5-20% of the dopamine neurons survive the implantation procedure. We have investigated the effects of inhibiting free radical generation with two lazaroids, U-74389G and U-83836E, on the survival of embryonic rat dopamine neuro
In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, the event-by-event variation of the elliptic flow v2 reflects fluctuations in the shape of the initial state of the system. This allows to select events with the same centrality but different initial geometry. This selection technique, Event Shape Engineering, has been used in the analysis of charge-dependent two- and three-particle correlations in Pb–Pb
In a controlled prospective randomized study the regimen doxorubicin (A) 40 mg/m2 + melphalan (M) 0.4 mg/kg was compared with A + M + cisplatin (C) 50 mg/m2 given every four weeks in advanced ovarian cancer, FIGO stage III or IV and with serous or anaplastic histology. From 1981 to 1983, 300 patients entered the study and 295 patients were evaluable for response, toxicity and long-term survival. A
BACKGROUND: Performance status (PS) is known as one of the strongest prognostic factors for survival in metastatic colorectal cancer patients. The aim of the present study was to analyze factors associated with poor PS assessed after resection for colorectal liver metastases and the impact on survival.METHODS: All patients undergoing curative resection for colorectal liver metastases between 2010
Animal bedding, a mixture of straw and manure, could be used as a feedstock for bioenergy production, but its heterogeneity poses new challenges in its use in biorefineries. We have investigated the origin of this heterogeneity and quantified it, and discuss its impact on bioenergy production. Samples were collected from the bedding at different points and depths and analysed by first separating t
Popular Abstract in Swedish The phenol oxidase “laccase” was first described towards the end of the 19th century from the wound sap of the lacquer tree Rhus vernicifera. However, its use in one of the oldest biotechnologies, i.e. the making of lacquerware in East-Asia, dates back to 5000-6000 BC. The enzyme has the widest distribution in nature among the multicopper oxidases. It catalyzes one elecLaccase, the phenol oxidizing enzyme, was first described towards the end of the 19th century from the wound sap of the lacquer tree Rhus vernicifera. The enzyme has the widest distribution in nature among the multicopper oxidases. It catalyzes single electron transfer oxidation in the presence of molecular oxygen producing water as by-product. Based on these highly desired mild oxidising conditio
