Hyaluronan is an unsulfated linear glycosaminoglycan with the ability to nucleate extracellular matrices by the formation of aggregates with lecticans. These matrices are essential during development of the central nervous system. In the prospective white matter of the developing brain hyaluronan is organized into fiber-like structures according to confocal microscopy of fixed slices which may gui
Smoking is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Studies have indicated that smoking may outweigh the benefit of blood pressure (BP) control. Our aim was to compare cardiovascular risk factors in smokers vs non-smokers from a national sample of treated hypertensives. Data were collected on smoking habits, BP control, total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, diabete
Background Arterial hypertension is common in adults with repaired coarctation of the aorta (CoA). The associations between the diagnosis of hypertension, actual blood pressure, other factors affecting left ventricular overload, and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) are not yet fully explored in this population. Material and results From the national register for congenital heart disease, 506 adu

Climate change is an issue affecting societies worldwide. As temperatures, precipitation patterns, and sea levels change, our buildings and properties are in danger. Therefore, it is crucial for real estate companies to adapt their properties to the effects of climate change as they will be impacted. To help companies make environmentally sustainable economic activities, the European Union has imp
In a world where migration has dramatically increased over the last 30 years, migrant consumers have become an important market actor. When migrant consumers geographically relocate they potentially experience changes in their identity, while different factors influence their acculturation to the host culture. Consumer acculturation literature within Consumer Culture Theory has studied this topic
Dålig luftkvalitet inomhus påverkar inte bara komforten och hälsan hos oss människor. Dålig luftkvalitet kan också bidra till att bakterier och virus kan sprida sig om förhållandena i luften är gynnsamma för viruset eller bakteriens överlevnad. Flera studier har gjorts där olika virus överlevnadsförmåga har undersökts under olika temperaturer och relativa fuktigheter. Studierna har visat att den rPoor indoor air quality not only affects the comfort and health of us humans, but it can also contribute to the spread of bacteria and viruses if the conditions in the air are favourable for the virus. Several studies have been done where different virus survivability has been examined under different temperatures and relative humidity. Studies have shown that the relative humidity affects the via
Helicobacter pylori is an important pathogen inhabiting the human stomach. H. pylori binds plasminogen, a 90 kDa glycoprotein secreted by liver cells, and utilizes it for enhancing virulence. Surface receptors on the bacteria recognize plasminogen that is then activated into plasmin by host factors. The active plasmin can degrade a range of host proteins including proteins of the extracellular mat
27 juni 2025 11:00 till 17:00 | Utställning Nu flyttar Anonymouse in på Skissernas Museum – Välkommen till öppningen! I december 2016 dök ett mystiskt miniatyrhus upp i en fasad på Bergsgatan i Malmö. Det såg ut som om ett gäng möss hade öppnat en restaurang – precis under knähöjd för de som vanligtvis passerade förbi. Det lilla ingreppet i gatubilden, signerat av den anonyma konstnärsgruppen Anon

Paediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemias (BCP ALL) with IKZF1 deletions (∆IKZF1) are associated with a poor outcome. However, there are conflicting data as to whether ∆IKZF1 is an independent risk factor if minimal residual disease (MRD) and other copy number alterations also are taken into account. We investigated 334 paediatric BCP ALL, diagnosed 1992-2013 and treated according
PURPOSE: To provide estimates of the diffusional kurtosis in the healthy brain in anatomically defined areas and list these along previously reported values in pathologies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-six volunteers (mean age = 33.1 years; range, 19-64 years) underwent diffusional kurtosis imaging. Mean kurtosis (MK), radial kurtosis (RK), mean diffusivity (MD), radial diffusivity (RD), and frac
The myeloid translocation gene 16 product MTG16 is found in multiple transcription factor-containing complexes as a regulator of gene expression implicated in development and tumorigenesis. A stable Tet-On system for doxycycline-dependent expression of MTG16 was established in B-lymphoblastoid Raji cells to unravel its molecular functions in transformed cells. A noticeable finding was that express
The size distribution of asteroids and Kuiper belt objects in the solar system is difficult to reconcile with a bottom-up formation scenario due to the observed scarcity of objects smaller than similar to 100 km in size. Instead, planetesimals appear to form top-down, with large 100 1000 km bodies forming from the rapid gravitational collapse of dense clumps of small solid particles. In this paper
New polysulfone (PSF) copolymers from bis(4-fluorophenyl)sulfone and based on equimolar mixtures of the rigid/compact naphthalene moiety with bulky connectors from bisphenols: tetramethyl, hexafluoro, and tetramethyl hexafluoro, respectively, were synthesized to measure significant physical properties related to the gas separation field. The flexible and transparent polymer dense films TM-NPSF, HF
