BACKGROUND: SRY (sex-determining region, Y) is the gene responsible of gonadal differentiation in the male and it is essential for the regular development of male genitalia. Translocations involving the human sex chromosomes are rarely reported, however here we are reporting a very rare translocation of SRY gene to the q -arm of a deleted X chromosome. This finding was confirmed by cytogenetic, fl
Let $H^2_m$ be the Hilbert function space on the unit ball in $\C{m}$ defined by the kernel $k(z,w) = (1-\langle z,w \rangle)^{-1}$. For any weak zero set of the multiplier algebra of $H^2_m$, we study a natural extremal function, $E$. We investigate the properties of $E$ and show, for example, that $E$ tends to $0$ at almost every boundary point. We also give several explicit examples of the extr
Background. Ethical duties of health professionals include the obligation to enhance their patients' competence and ability to participate. Aims and objectives. To explore what kind of decisions and how these decisions were made during a child's hospitalization. Design. During a 9-week period 24 children and their parents were followed during the course of events at the hospital. In total 135 ho

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att studera relationen mellan ekonomisk knapphet och konsumtion med fokus på barnfamiljer. Avhandlingen handlar huvudsakligen om att teoretiskt försöka förstå vad ekonomisk knapphet kan innebära i förhållande till ett konsumtions- eller överflödssamhälle som det svenska. Barnfamiljer används som ett empiriskt exempel för att illustrera de teorThe object of this thesis has been to study the relationship between consumption and economic scarcity from a theoretical perspective. I have used families with children as an empirical example to illustrate the theoretical framework. There are two main questions: The first focuses on the structures that create specific conditions for low-income consumers. The second relates to how the households
We consider a symmetric, steady, and periodic water wave. It is shown that a locally vanishing vertical velocity component implies a flat or oscillating surface profile.
The study concerns whether DNA flow cytometry and estrogen receptor analysis might help predict which breast cancer patients, particularly node-positive ones, were at the greatest risk of developing loco-regional recurrence (LRR). Such patients would best benefit from postoperative radiotherapy following modified radical mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection. After this type of surgery, 50
Several methods for synthetic unit hydrographs are available in the literature. Most of them involve manual, subjective fitting of a hydrograph through few data points. Because it is difficult, the generated unit hydrograph is often left unadjusted for unit runoff volume. To circumvent this problem, a simplified version of the existing two-parameter gamma distribution is introduced to derive a syn
Laminins are a group of extracellular-matrix proteins important in development and disease. They are heterotrimers, and specific domains in the different chains have specialized functions. The G domain of the alpha5 chain has now been produced in transfected mammalian cells as single modules and two tandem arrays, alpha5LG1-3 and alpha5LG4-5 (LG is laminin G domain-like.). Using these fragments we

Nonmuscle myosin can generate force and shortening in smooth muscle, as revealed by studies of the urinary bladder from mice lacking smooth muscle myosin heavy chain (SM-MHC) but expressing the nonmuscle myosin heavy chains A and B (NM-MHC A and B; Morano, I., G.X. Chai, L.G. Baltas, V. Lamounier-Zepter, G. Lutsch, M. Kott, H. Haase, and M. Bader. 2000. Nat. Cell Biol. 2:371–375). Intracellular ca
A new tyre-force model for simultaneous braking and cornering is presented, which is based on combining existing empirical models for pure braking and cornering with brush-model tyre mechanics. The aim is to offer an easy-to-use, accurate model for vehicle-handling simulations. On a working tyre the contact patch between the tyre and the road is, in general, divided into an adhesion region where t
Cytogenetic studies of Ph-positive leukemic patients and their parents have indicated that chromosome 22 involved in the formation of the t(9;22) is of maternal origin, whereas chromosome 9 is preferentially of paternal origin. These data have suggested that the two genes BCR and ABL, which become fused through the translocation, might be imprinted, ie expressed in a parental-specific manner. Rece
The cytogenetic and DNA flow cytometric findings in 242 breast carcinomas were compared. The combined use of both techniques improved the detection of abnormal cell populations from 65% by cytogenetic analysis alone and 59% by DNA flow cytometric analysis alone to 84%. Informative and comparable cytogenetic and flow cytometric data were obtained for 155 tumors. Among these 155 tumors, there was go
Helicobacter pylori infection in humans is associated with chronic type B gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric carcinoma. A high intake of carotenoids and vitamin C has been proposed to prevent development of gastric malignancies. The aim of this study was to explore if the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis rich in the carotenoid astaxanthin and vitamin C can inhibit experimental H. pylori
