The development of cancer is driven by the accumulation of many oncogenesis-related genetic alterations and tumorigenesis is triggered by complex networks of involved genes rather than independent actions. To explore the epistasis existing among oncogenesis-related genes in lung cancer development, we conducted pairwise genetic interaction analyses among 35,031 SNPs from 2027 oncogenesis-related g

Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a bone marrow failure syndrome caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Pathogenic mechanisms are poorly understood but involve severely reduced proliferation of erythroid precursors. Because current DBA therapies are ineffective and associated with severe side effects, disease-specific therapies are urgently needed. We hypothesized that druggable molecular

Purpose To investigate multivoxel proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1HMRS) biometrics for preoperative differentiation and prognosis of patients with brain metastases (MET), low-(LGG) and high grade glioma (HGG). Methods Thirty-five patients (15 HGG, 9 LGG and 11 MET) were included. Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Imaging(1H-MRSI) data was assessed and neurochemical profiles for metab

Heart failure (HF) is a major public health problem characterized by inability of the heart to maintain sufficient output of blood. The systematic characterization of circulating proteins across different stages of HF may provide pathophysiological insights and identify therapeutic targets. Here we report application of aptamer-based proteomics to identify proteins associated with prospective HF i

On-demand droplet generation from a continuously flowing stream of aqueous phase has profound applications in dropletbased microfluidics for rare event encapsulation studies. Here, we present acoustic relocation-based droplet generation from co-flowing immiscible fluids in an on-demand manner using bulk acoustic wave (BAW). After on-demand droplet generation, droplets are isolated using the same a

Background Preeclampsia is considered a major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The aim of the present case-control study in Sweden was to assess the hypothesized association between low serum vitamin D concentrations in early pregnancy and the risk of developing preeclampsia since vitamin D may play a role in early placental development. Methods The study included 296 women dia

Firefighters can be occupationally exposed to a wide range of airborne pollutants during fire-extinguishing operations. The overall study aim was to characterize occupational exposure to smoke for several groups of workers responding to fires, with specific aims to determine the correlations between exposure markers and to biologically assess their systemic exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocar

Vocal problems are common among workers in voice demanding occupations. For sustaining vocal health, it is important to find efficient ways to reduce strain on the voice at work. One way to do so is optimizing the room acoustics for communication. However, we do not know enough about what kind of room acoustic conditions that support voice and speech most efficiently, and if talkers of different a

We present a detailed comparison of ectopic ossification (EO) found in tendons of biglycan (Bgn), fibromodulin (Fmod) single and double Bgn/Fmod-deficient (DKO) mice with aging. At 3 months, Fmod KO, Bgn KO and DKO displayed torn cruciate ligaments and EO in their quadriceps tendon, menisci and cruciate and patellar ligaments. The phenotype was the least severe in the Fmod KO, intermediate in the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Leukemi kännetecknas av en okontrollerad tillväxt av omogna vita blodkroppar och orsakas av förvärvade genetiska förändringar. Genetiska förändringar eller avvikelser, som är drivande i cancerutvecklingen, uppstår när normala celler delar sig. Identifiering av sådana förändringar på gen-och kromosomnivå är av stor klinisk betydelse. Behandling styrs av vilka genetiska aAcute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) affects individuals at all ages, with peak incidences in children <4 years and adults >50 years. ALL is broadly categorized into B-cell precursor (BCP) and T-cell ALL with specific clinical features associated with outcome. In contrast to pediatric ALL, which has a favorable prognosis, adult ALL is associated with a much poorer outcome with less than 40% overall

Abstract in Undetermined Core-level binding energy shifts between the free atomand corresponding large clusters, the latter closely approximating the infinite solid, have been experimentally derived for several elemental metals. The cluster core-level binding energies in question have been determined relative to the vacuum level using synchrotron-based photoelectron spectroscopy. As expected, the

At the emergency department (ED), it is important to quickly and accurately determine which patients are likely to have a major adverse cardiac event (MACE). Machine learning (ML) models can be used to aid physicians in detecting MACE, and improving the performance of such models is an active area of research. In this study, we sought to determine if ML models can be improved by including a prior

Bioelectronics holds great potential as therapeutics, but introducing conductive structures within the body poses great challenges. While implanted rigid and substrate-bound electrodes often result in inflammation and scarring in vivo, they outperform the in situ-formed, more biocompatible electrodes by providing superior control over electrode geometry. For example, one of the most researched met

Due to the large extent of seawater surface over the globe, aerosol particles spend significant time being transported over this type of surface. Therefore, global aerosol circulation is largely impacted by the processes particles undergo during long-range transport overseas. In this study, we investigated submicron aerosol (PM1) chemical composition changes during long-range transport events over

The field of mass evacuation has existed for a long time. Already during the Roman Empire era evacuation problematic was considered. In modern times the field has gained more attention during the last couple of decades, especially for sports grounds and stadiums. Through analysis of some well-known historical crowd disasters and through a literature survey the aim has been to compile the most impo

It can evaluate an unlimited number of derivatives to a fixed cost relative to the computing time of the original function. The AD technique is used in many fields for large and complex calculations in order to get accurate values of derivatives fast. Banks and other financial institutions handle calculations of

The keystone species concept holds that certain members of an ecological community, despite their low abundance, exert disproportionately large effects on species diversity and composition. In microbial ecology, experimental validation of this concept has been limited because targeted removal of individual species remains technically challenging. Here, we developed a procedure to test the keystone
