Controlling growth of a cell How incredible would it be to control growth of cells? One of the most basic mechanisms in life. This knowledge would be especially useful for treating threatening cells such as cancer cells or pathogenic bacteria. It would be lifesaving to understand and determine their growth. Here the focus is on growth of bacteria, particularly those belonging to the genus Strepto
Fire and grazing, a disaster or opportunity? Due to climate change, disturbances such as forest fires are expected to see an increase in frequency in the 21st century. Fires can increase species diversity since it can create habitats for early successional species. At least if it does not happen too often. Imagine living in a house that burns down every year, it would not be a very nice place to
This paper is designed to examine the implications of Cambodia’s labour legislation, namely the Labour Law and the newly adopted Law on Union of Enterprises on the exercise of the rights to collective bargaining and to strike in Cambodia’s apparel industry. Both laws are adopted by the Cambodian government in order to purportedly provide an effective and efficient safeguarding umbrella for workers

Background: Explicit weight bias is known as negative attitudes and beliefs toward individuals due to their weight status and can be perpetuated through misconceptions about the causes of obesity. Individuals may also experience weight bias internalization (WBI) when they internalize negative weight-related attitudes and self-stigmatize. There is a paucity of research on the beliefs about the caus
Objective. Infliximab, an anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNF alpha) antibody, is effective in the treatment of several immunoinflammatory diseases. However, many patients experience primary or secondary response failure, suggesting that individualization of treatment regimens may be beneficial. This study was undertaken to investigate whether serologic monitoring of infliximab bioavailabil
Background: Overdiagnosis and subsequent overtreatment are important side effects of screening for, and early detection of, prostate cancer (PCa). Active surveillance (AS) is of growing interest as an alternative to radical treatment of low-risk PCa. Objective: To update our experience in the largest worldwide prospective AS cohort. Design, setting, and participants: Eligible patients had clinical
AIMS: To determine the basal pharmacokinetics, lung uptake and plasma cortisol suppression for two commonly prescribed inhaled corticosteroids. METHODS: Twenty-one subjects (13 healthy and 8 mild asthmatic patients) received fluticasone propionate via a chlorofluorocarbon-propelled pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) (healthy subjects only) and Diskus and budesonide via Turbuhaler, 1000 microg
An upcoming trend in the current IT-landscape is to outsource services to so called Cloud Service Providers (CSPs). However, many companies are still sceptical to this new kind of services, since they bring about a certain loss of control. For this reason, it is important for CSPs to show that their services are secure. There are several options in proving this and it is up to every CSP to choose
Background: Global stroke epidemiology is changing rapidly. Although age-standardized rates of stroke mortality have decreased worldwide in the past 2 decades, the absolute numbers of people who have a stroke every year, and live with the consequences of stroke or die from their stroke, are increasing. Regular updates on the current level of stroke burden are important for advancing our knowledge
While preterm contractions occur almost as often extremely preterm as they do closer to term, birth due to spontaneous preterm labour before 27 weeks of gestation is rare, accounting for 0.05–0.7% of all births in different populations. Although the likelihood that uterine contractions before 27 weeks of gestation represent true preterm labour is low, the risk of adverse outcome in such cases is h
Popular Abstract in English Living organisms are composed of mainly carbohydrate, protein and lipid molecules. Protein molecules are responsible for many biological functions in cells. In order to fulfill their various biological roles, these chain-like molecules must fold into precise three-dimensional shapes. The knowledge of accurate molecular structures is a prerequisite for rational drug desiProtein molecules are responsible for many biological functions in cells. In order to fulfill their various biological roles, these chain-like molecules must fold into precise three-dimensional shapes. The knowledge of accurate molecular structures is a prerequisite for rational drug design and for structure based functional studies. Getting structural information of proteins can be a very difficu
Findus Sverige AB, referred to as Findus from now on, harvests peas during a period ofaround 50 days during the summer. The harvest generates about 30 000 tonnes of peas which gives around 40 000 pallets to distribute to the warehouses which Findus uses for final storage. Three hours after the peas are picked in the fields, they have to be frozen to keep their good taste and quality. Because of t
Objective: To investigate fatigue at baseline and 3.5 years later and its association with balance and gait over time.Background: In Parkinson’s disease (PD), fatigue is considered one of the most common and disabling nonmotor symptoms that may persist or even worsen over time. Fatigue in generally has been described as a significantly diminished energy level or an increased perception of effort d
Förmågan att uppfatta ljus och vilken riktning det kommer från är utomordentligt användbart för djur. Därför är det inte förvånande att denna förmåga återfinns hos i stort sett varje större djurgrupp, även bland de som anses enkla, såsom koraller och spolmaskar. Endast några få djurgrupper har dock, under evolutionens gång, utvecklat verkligt bra ögon som snabbt kan identifiera objekt av djurens eLight-detection provides incomparabaly rapid information at a range of time scales and, consequently, directional photoreception is found in almost every major metazoan clade. Conversely, a much smaller cohort have evolved sophisticated high resolution vision, which facillitates complex tasks via the detection of fast or small objects,. such as courtship and high-speed pursuit of prey. A few such
The fourth generation broadband (4GBB) concept aims for ubiquitous and high-speed data communication over the existing twisted copper pairs between the last distribution point and the customer premise equipment. Although it saves deployment cost for the last-mile communication, using the existing copper infrastructure makes the system vulnerable to crosstalk due to electro-magnetic coupling from t
OBJECTIVE: This article, based on the Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial (EMGT), provides prospective natural history data on progression of glaucomatous field defects in 3 of the most common glaucoma types. DESIGN: Cohort of EMGT patients randomized to the untreated control group and followed up to the time of progression, when treatment could be initiated. PARTICIPANTS: We evaluated 118 control patie
