Within the homologous series of amphiphilic peptides AnK, both A8K and A10K self-assemble in water to form twisted ribbon fibrils with lengths around 100 nm. The structure of the fibrils can be described in terms of twisted β-sheets extending in the direction of the fibrils, laminated to give a constant cross section of 4 nm by 8 nm. The finite width of the twisted ribbons can be reasonably explai
Long term multiple systemic antibiotics form the cornerstone in the treatment of bone and joint tuberculosis, often combined with local surgical eradication. Implanted carriers for local drug delivery have recently been introduced to overcome some of the limitations associated with conventional treatment strategies. In this study, we used a calcium sulphate hemihydrate (CSH)/nanohydroxyapatite (nH
The Ålandic autonomy has evolved into a relatively well-functioning system over the last century. A scrutiny of the first three decades following the decisions by the Council of the League of Nations shows that this was not always the case. This article engages with the main political issues that Åland faced during this time, focusing on the problems that directly or indirectly involved the League
In recent years two Swedish companies, Telia and Lundin Petroleum, have had to work hard to legitimate their actions as a result of allegations of criminal activity. In this paper, the corporate framings employed to deal with allegations of crime will be analysed on the basis of Stanley Cohen's (2009) theoretical work on processes of denial and neutralization techniques. More specifically, the pap
The major form of complement component C4b-binding protein, a regulator of the complement system, is composed of seven identical 70-kDa alpha chains, each containing a binding site for the complement protein C4b. We recently showed that C4b-binding protein also contains a unique 45-kDa beta chain. It is disulfide-linked to the central core and contains a binding site for the vitamin K-dependent pr
OBJECTIVES: The Swedish surveillance system aiming to reveal undetected Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) in workers exposed for vibrations is regulated by the provision AFS 2019:3. The goal for the surveillance system is to diagnose HAVS, as well as to find workers at risk for developing HAVS due to other conditions. The national guidelines stipulate examination using at least two out of four ha
Tillgång till pollinerare är avgörande för produktionen av många grödor. Det är viktigt att känna till olika insektsarters egenskaper och att skapa förutsättningar för en mångfald av pollinerare. Det kan i vissa situationer uppstå risk för konkurrens mellan vilda bin och honungsbin.
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder caused by clonal proliferation of primitive hematopoietic stem cell. The median age at diagnosis is 55 to 60 years with less than 10% of patients younger 20 years. Incidence of CML in children in the Czech Republic is 0.106 cases/100 thousands per year. Here we report outcome of 38 pediatric patients (median age 12.5 years; range 1.8
Forskning och nya metoder för skogsbruk visar att svensk skog kan binda mycket mer koldioxid än i dag och samtidigt ge virke med högre värden. Vi menar att svensk skog är underutnyttjad, skriver flera debattörer.
(1) Background: The Berlin questionnaire (BQ) is a widely used survey to predict obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Considering the confounding effect of obesity and hypertension on the clinical course of COVID-19, we have recently developed a modified BQ (mBQ) based on the subscales snoring intensity/frequency, witnessed apneas and morning/daytime tiredness, and demonstrated that patients with high-r
A search for a WZ resonance, in the fully leptonic final state (electrons or muons), is performed using 139 fb - 1 of data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The results are interpreted in terms of a singly charged Higgs boson of the Georgi–Machacek model, produced by WZ fusion, and of a Heavy Vector Triplet, with the resonance produc
A search for leptoquarks decaying into the bτ final state is performed using Run 2 proton-proton collision data from the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb −1 at s = 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector. The benchmark models considered in this search are vector leptoquarks with electric charge of 2/3e and scalar leptoquarks with an electric charge of 4/3e.
The use of the magnetic-field-induced transition (MIT) in Fe X for the measurement of the magnetic field strength in the solar corona has been discussed and demonstrated in a number of recent studies. This diagnostic technique depends on, among other conditions, the accuracy of the atomic data for Fe X. In the present work, we carry out a large-scale calculation for the atomic properties needed fo
