Src homology 2 (SH2) and SH3 domains are abundant protein and peptide binding modules in signalling molecules. Certain SH2 and SH3 domains have been shown to form functional and physical interactions. The structural basis of dimer formation was studied by docking three dimensional structures of the domains and by analysing structural and functional properties of the dimers. The experimentally veri

Objectives To determine the accuracy of established ultrasound dating formulae when used at 12-14 weeks of gestation. Methods One-hundred and sixty-seven singleton pregnancies conceived after in-vitro fertilization (IVF) underwent a dating scan at 12-14 weeks of gestation. Gestational age at the dating scan was calculated by adding 14 days to the number of days between the date of oocyte retrieva
The thesis describes methods for automatic creation of illustrations of natural-language text. The main focus of the work is to convert texts that describe sequences of events in a physical world into animated images. This is what we call text-to-scene conversion. The first part of the thesis describes Carsim, a system that automatically illustrates traffic accident newspaper reports written in
CCND1 amplification results in cyclin D1 overexpression. However, other unidentified genetic mechanisms contribute to enhanced gene expression. In the present study, 32 squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) were investigated regarding chromosomal abnormalities involving 11q13 by cytogenetic analysis, genomic CCND1 amplification by differential PCR and FISH, and cyclin D1 expression
Since January 2006, robotic assistance has been used for performing minimal invasive laparoscopic fundoplications in children. These patients were compared with those operated on with either the open surgical technique or the laparoscopic procedure. The first six children operated on with a fundoplication using the operation robot, da Vinci (R) Surgical System from Intuitive Surgical (R), were inc
Malignant melanoma of soft parts (MMSP), also called clear cell sarcoma of tendons and aponeuroses, is cytogenetically characterized by the t(12;22)(q13;q12) resulting in the chimeric EWSR1/ATF1 gene. MMSP shares a number of morphologic, histologic, and immunohistochemical features with malignant melanoma of the skin, causing diagnostic difficulties in the distinction between MMSP and metastatic m
A simple technique for fine-needle aspiration biopsy from the synovial membrane of arthritis knee joints preceded by lavage of the joint cavity is described. The procedure was atraumatic, well accepted, and could be performed on outpatients. Cells originating from the synovial membrane were obtained in 12 of 17 knees using a 1.2-mm cannula. The yield was 6.0 x 10(3) to 135 x 10(3) mononuclear cell
Objective. Infected pancreatic necrosis is the main cause of death in patients with acute pancreatitis, and therefore its early prediction is of utmost importance. Endogenous cortisol metabolism plays a basic role both in the course of acute pancreatitis and in the process of infection. The purpose of this study was to analyze corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG), total cortisol, calculated free
"Eros pedagogy. From Plato to Areopagite" is a philosophical-pedagogical essay which emphasizes the educational dimension in the philosophy of eros as presented by Plato, and further, through Neoplatonism, interpreted and introduced by Areopagites into Christian thought. At first the essay describes the theory of Plato on eros as part of his general system of thought and here the pedagogic element
Treatment of Ru-3(CO)(12) with dpphSe(2) (dpph = 1,6-bis(diphenylphosphino)-hexane) in refluxing toluene in the presence of Me3NO afforded two new compounds, Ru-3(CO)(7)(mu-CO)(mu(3)-Se)(mu-dpph) (1) and Ru-3(CO)(7)(mu(3)-Se)(2)(mu-dpph) (2). A similar reaction of Ru-3(CO)(12) with dpppeSe(2)(dpppe=1,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)pentane) gave exclusively Ru-3(CO)(7)(mu(3)-Se)(2)(mu-dpppe) (3). Treatmen
I present the status of the THEPEG project for creating a common platform for implementing C++ event generators. I also describe briefly the status of the new versions of PYTHIA, HERWIG and ARIADNE which are implemented using this framework.
The present paper explores possible reasons why acceptance and mindfulness techniques may be beneficial in the treatment of insomnia. First, it is argued that sleep is facilitated by cognitive deactivation, with less controlled information processing as compared with daytime functioning, and correspondingly more acceptance of spontaneously occurring physiological and mental processes. Second, it i
