In the past five years, many Scanian cities have been hit hard by flood damages, especially in conurbation areas. A changed Scanian climate with increased annual rainfall and more downfalls during summer months, is expected to worsen the outcome of flood damages. Therefore, there is a great need for damage prevention activities and climate adaptation work with particular interest for insurance com
Many extensions of the Standard Model posit the existence of heavy particles with long lifetimes. In this Letter, results are presented of a search for events containing one or more such particles, which decay at a significant distance from their production point, using a final state containing charged hadrons and an associated muon. This analysis uses a data sample of proton-proton collisions at
A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the H -> WW(*()) -> lvlv (l = e.mu) decay mode is presented. The search is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1) at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV collected during 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No significant excess of events over the expected background is o
ObjectiveTo assess the role of the placental arterial Doppler examination at 23-24 gestational weeks for predicting adverse perinatal outcome in high-risk pregnancies. DesignRetrospective register study. SettingSkane University Hospital in Malmo. PopulationSix hundred and forty-five women with high-risk pregnancies, without fetal malformations or chromosomal abnormalities. MethodsPlacental (uterin
Numerous Neoproterozoic mafic dykes, referred to as the Dashigou swarm, are identified in the central and southeastern parts of the North China craton (NCC). They are 305-010 degrees trending dykes, with widths of similar to 10-100 m and exposed lengths of several to >10 km. Precise U-Pb isotope dilution thermal ionization mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS) measurements on baddeleyite grains separated fr
Navigate PD was an educational program established to supplement existing guidelines and provide recommendations on the management of Parkinson's disease (PD) refractory to oral/transdermal therapies. It involved 103 experts from 13 countries overseen by an International Steering Committee (ISC) of 13 movement disorder specialists. The ISC identified 71 clinical questions important for device-aide
To investigate, within the first 2 years of diagnosis with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), associations between disease-related measures and cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in patients with RA onset before and after 65 years of age.
The Sao Francisco Craton (SFC) is an Archaean craton that hosts a significant number of mafic intrusions. Previous attempts to date the igneous emplacement of these rocks are limited to a few dates of poor precision. Here, two dyke swarms from the Uaua Block in the northeastern portion of the craton were dated using U-Pb on baddeleyite (ID-TIMS) and zircon (SIMS). The older dyke swarm trends mainl
The dinuclear complex [Zn2(DPCPMP)(pivalate)](ClO4), where DPCPMP is the new unsymmetrical ligand [2-(N-(3-((bis((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)amino)methyl)-2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzyl)-N-((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)amino)acetic acid], has been synthesized and characterized. The complex is a functional model for zinc phosphoesterases with dinuclear active sites. The hydrolytic efficacy of the complex has been inves
Pheromone communication systems have a reliable signal with a restricted window of amounts and ratios released and perceived. We propose a model based on a Gaussian response profile that allows a quantification of the response peak (location of optimum) and a measure of the peak width (response window). Interpreting the Gaussian curve, fitted by nonlinear regression (NLR), as a standard normal dis
The Yersinia protein kinase A (YpkA) is injected into host cells by the yersinial type three secretion system (TTSS). YpkA is widely believed to function within the host cell based on the fact that its kinase domain is clearly homologous to eukaryotic Ser/Thr kinases and that its enzymatic activity, when assayed in vitro, is dependent on eukaryotic-derived host factors. Whether this activity is re
A distillation unit has been designed for a capacity of 73 t/h of condensate and for at least 90% recovery of the contaminating organics. This unit consists of three columns: a primary stripper to remove volatile organics and two upgrading columns to purify the methanol and furfural byproducts. Three different energy-saving alternatives for satisfying the energy requirements have been studied: ut
BACKGROUND: Effective T-cell depletion is a prerequisite for haploidentical peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplantation. This study was performed to investigate the performance of magnetic cell sorting–based direct large-scale T-cell depletion, which is an attractive alternative to standard PBPC enrichment procedures. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: PBPCs were harvested from 11 human leukoc
Vasopressin and oxytocin are synthesised in the hypothalamus and released to the blood stream via the posterior lobe of the hypophysis. Research during later years has shown that these peptides are also produced in other parts of the brain. The secretion to plasma is stimulated by oestrogen, an effect which is counteracted by progestagen. During delivery the fetus can also produce substantial amou
Hereditary defects of the von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene cause von Willebrand's disease (VWD) which shows great variability dependent on the nature and location of the mutation. We here describe the characteristics of a substitution of methionine for threonine 1156 in the D3 domain of the VWF, i.e. the domain involved in the intracellular multimerization of pro-VWF dimers. A VWD patient withseve
Using a recently introduced multiplex polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism ABO genotype screening method we have found an anomalous ABO genotype (A2O1variant) not correlating with the serological phenotype (blood group O). The blood group was confirmed by absorption/elution and detection of blood group substances in saliva. Sequencing of exons 6 and 7 in the ABO g
This thesis aims to evaluating the actual performance of China’s “Feed-in-Tariff” system for wind energy, especially the updated version after 2009 which being part of the Chinese economic stimulus package that intended to help the recovery of the economy from global financial crisis. The research started by looking thoroughly into the evolution and mechanism of the system. Then through a case stu
Creating Non-governmental Self-help groups (SHGs) has been a common thing in India since the early 1990’s. Studies show that the SHGs usually empower their members in different ways. The empirical material being used in this paper consists of one group discussion and twelve semi-structured interviews with members of five different SHGs being organized by a Non governmental organization (NGO) in Mu
