We present X-ray source catalogs for the ≈7 Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S), which covers a total area of 484.2 arcmin2. Utilizing wavdetect for initial source detection and ACIS Extract for photometric extraction and significance assessment, we create a main source catalog containing 1008 sources that are detected in up to three X-ray bands: 0.5-7.0 keV, 0.5-2.0 keV, and 2-7 k

Stöd till våldsutsatta kvinnor har historiskt sett varit en uppgift för ideellt arbetande kvinnor på kvinnojourer. De senaste två decennierna har kommunernas ansvar för våldsutsatta kvinnor och barn som bevittnat våld förtydligats. Runt om i landet har kommuner gjort satsningar för att höja kompetensen kring våld i nära relationer och för att förbättra samverkan. I vissa fall har personer med ett In Sweden, support for abused women has historically been a task for female volunteers in women’s shelters. However, due to amendments in the Social Services Act, some local municipalities have in recent years initiated services for people with experience of violence in intimate relationships, often women and men, abused as well as abusers. These specialised public sector units have an approach to

Heartbeat. Hjertets pulserende rytme, åndedrættets tilhørende kadence, musikken inden for og uden for vores hoveder – lyde sætter spor og strukturerer vores liv indefra og ud, udefra og ind. Anri Sala skaber filmværker, der udfolder denne sammenhæng mellem liv, lyd og billeder. Det indbyrdes samspil kan opleves på Louisiana i en opsætning af fire film, der indgår i en dialog med hinanden og udstil

The emission spectrometer at Balder/MAX IV beamline is presented. Its unique features are described. Comparison is given with other types of curved crystals analyzers.

A paradigm shift is needed to improve and personalize the diagnosis of infectious disease and to select appropriate therapies. For many years, only the most severe and complicated bacterial infections received more detailed diagnostic and therapeutic attention as the efficiency of antibiotic therapy has guaranteed efficient treatment of patients suffering from the most common infections. Indeed, t

Type 2 diabetic patients suffer from insulin resistance and reduced insulin secretion. Osteopontin (OPN), a versatile protein expressed in several tissues throughout the body including the islets of Langerhans, has previously been implicated in the development of insulin resistance. Here we have investigated the role of OPN in insulin secretion using an OPN knock out mouse model (OPN-/-). Ultra-st

Vacuum degassing of activated sludge was tested at eight different Swedish wastewater treatment plants with laboratory-scale equipment in batch mode in order to evaluate its efficiency on improvement of sludge compaction and settling properties. The results show that the efficiency of the degassing technique is mainly dependent on the initial sludge volume index (SVI) of the target sludge which wa

Background: In the contact dermatitis literature, it is regularly stated that the patch test reactivity on various areas of the back differs; this might have a large impact on the reproducibility of patch testing. Objectives: To investigate the reproducibility of patch testing on the upper back with regard to the left as opposed to the right side and the medial as opposed to the lateral part of th

Objective: To describe the longitudinal patterns of release, and investigate the association between a set of synovial fluid biomarkers at the acute and chronic stage and the development of radiographic knee osteoarthritis (OA) after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Design: Synovial fluid was aspirated from the acutely ACL-injured knee within the first 2weeks (acute samples), and yearly

Aggression in patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presents an important therapeutic challenge. Conventional treatment appears to be inadequate in a number of cases. The occurrence of severe aggressive symptoms since the inception of adolescence in a male patient with ASD suggested a hormonal influence by androgens. Conventional treatment with antipsychotic and antiepileptic drugs and benz

The structural phase transition accompanied by a Jahn-Teller switch has been studied over a range of H/D ratios in (NH4)2[Cu(H2O)6](SO4)2 (ACTS). In particular, single-crystal neutron diffraction investigations of crystals with deuteration in the range 50 to 82% are shown to be consistent with previous electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments exhibiting a phase boundary at 50% deuteration

Neuroendocrine abnormalities are common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and include disruption of melatonin secretion, disturbances of glucose, insulin resistance and bone metabolism, and body weight changes. They have been associated with multiple non-motor symptoms in PD and have important clinical consequences, including therapeutics. Some of the underlying mechanisms have been implicated in the pa

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) influences phenotypic variation in Parkinson's disease (PD), and is usually an indication for statin therapy. It is less clear whether cardiovascular risk factors influence PD phenotype, and if statins are prescribed appropriately.OBJECTIVES: To quantify vascular risk and statin use in recent-onset PD, and examine the relationship between vascular risk, PD
