Molluscum contagiosum is a viral infection of the epidermis characterized by skin-colored papules or nodules frequently with a central depression. Atypical variants may occur, primarily in immunosuppressed individuals. We here report a case of »giant Molluscum contagiosum« in an immunocompetent child. The patient was presented with a fairly smooth nodule of 2 cm in diameter on the ring finger. Mol
A 24-hour bioblitz was performed by employees in the immediate surroundings of the Biological Institute in the city of Lund, South Sweden, on the 15th of June 2018. It produced 928 taxa, 411 of which were insects. Six species of Hymenoptera Parasitica were new to Sweden: Tumidiclava bimaculata (Blood), Lathromeris germanica (Girault), Aprostocetus crassiceps Graham, Quadrastichus anysis (Walker), Insect finds during the bioblitz of the Department of Biology in Lund in June 2018A 24-hour bioblitz was performed by employees in the immediate surroundings of the Biological Institute in the city of Lund, South Sweden, on the 15th of June 2018.

Ribosome biogenesis is a canonical hallmark of cell growth and proliferation. Here we show that execution of Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), a migratory cellular program associated with development and tumor metastasis, is fueled by upregulation of ribosome biogenesis during G1/S arrest. This unexpected EMT feature is independent of species and initiating signal, and is accompanied by
Med denna guide vill vi ge forskningsbaserade råd om hur du kan minska dinklimatpåverkan genom att förändra dina levnadsvanor, och leva i linje medParisavtalets 1,5-gradersmål. Vi vill både visa svenskars genomsnittliga klimat-avtryck och den stora skillnaden mellan individers koldioxidavtryck. Det innebär attdet behövs olika vägval för de som vill förändra sina levnadsvanor. Guiden betonardessuto
In this paper, we present two thermalized setups for in situ operando X-ray diffraction data collection in temperature ranging from 0° to 100 °C: a modified Leriche cell and a coin cell chamber. Both setups proved proper thermalization and representative electrochemistry. While the coin cell chamber may only be used in transmission mode, the modified Leriche cell can also be used in reflection mod
In this paper we discuss the pressing need for a just transition in one of our most environmentally and socially problematic contemporary industries: the fashion and textiles industry. We detail the current injustices in the industry, from both environmental and socio-economic standpoints, and then move on to providing some suggestions as to how these entrenched problems with the industry could be
We developed a panel of 44 nuclear genetic markers and applied this to two hybridizing species of marbled newts in the north (Triturus marmoratus) and the south (Triturus pygmaeus) of the Iberian Peninsula, to investigate pattern and process of interspecific gene flow. The northernmost occurrence of T. pygmaeus genetic material was in a T. marmoratus population north of the Vouga river estuary. Th
Poly-ADP-ribose polymerase-14 (PARP14) can modify proteins and nucleic acids by the reversible addition of a single ADP-ribose molecule. Aberrant PARP14 functions have been related to cancer and inflammation, and its domains are involved in processes related to viral infection. Previous research indicates that PARP14 functions might be mediated via a multitude of target proteins. In vitro studies
In 2018, an AI system named by its creator DABUS (Device for the Autonomous Bootstrapping of Unified Sentience) was credited by its creator to have independently invented a neural flame and a fractal container. According to its creator, DABUS is a ‘sentient artificial general intelligence can replicate all aspects of human cognition, including perception, creativity, consciousness, and sentience’
Mutations in the gene encoding Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) result in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), an immunodeficiency of antibody defect. By using base excision sequence scanning method (BESS) followed by direct sequencing we found in seven unrelated families with a classical XLA phenotype various mutations including six novel mutations (g.64512_64513insC, c.108_109insG, c.1700_1701insACTAC
Background: GEOMAGIA50.v3 for sediments is a comprehensive online database providing access to published paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and chronological data obtained from lake and marine sediments deposited over the past 50 ka. Its objective is to catalogue data that will improve our understanding of changes in the geomagnetic field, physical environments, and climate. Findings: GEOMAGIA50.v3 for
In the present paper I will demonstrate the history of Raqqa’s cultural heritage, its floruit and its destruction, from its resettlement in the 19th century until the “Islamic State” period. I will also discuss the recent situation and the challenges to heritage associated with post-war construction in Raqqa. Raqqa was the summer capital of the caliph Harun Al Rashid and the centre of government f
Abstract in DanishDenne temabog giver en ny og nuanceret vinkel på arabisk kultur gennem et indblik i dens tidlige filosofiske tradition.Fra det ottende århundrede og frem skrev store tænkere – muslimer, kristne og jøder – banebrydende værker om filosofi og teologi på arabisk, som skulle få stor betydning også i vesten, og som stadig er fascinerende læsning i dag.Arabisk filosofi indeholder 14 udd
With its long history of about three thousand years of statehood and with its geographic situation in the Caucasus, at the cross-roads of the Christian and Muslim worlds, Georgia represents an interesting picture in terms of linguistic (and not only linguistic) diversity. During the Soviet period and even since the Russian expansion in Georgia (19th century), minority and majority languages and id
