Difference in Performance of EPI Pigs Fed Either Lipase-Predigested or Creon®-Supplemented Semielemental Diet

Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) and fat predigestion are key in ensuring the optimal growth of patients with cystic fibrosis. Our study attempted to highlight differences between fat predigestion and conventional PERT on body composition of young pigs with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). EPI and healthy pigs were fed with high-fat diet for six weeks. During the last two weeks

Similarly to many OECD countries, repair has been replaced by purchasing of alternatives which has accrelated production and accompanying environmental impacts. With the re-recognition of the necessity of closure of material loops repair has been receiving renewed policy attention, both at the EU and Swedish level. There are also initiatives such as repair cafe that seek to equip citizens with too

Higher Nakayama algebras I : Construction

We introduce higher dimensional analogues of the Nakayama algebras from the viewpoint of Iyama's higher Auslander–Reiten theory. More precisely, for each Nakayama algebra A and each positive integer d, we construct a finite dimensional algebra A(d) having a distinguished d-cluster-tilting -module whose endomorphism algebra is a higher dimensional analogue of the Auslander algebra of A. We also con

Not Just Being Lifted : Infants are Sensitive to Delay During a Pick-Up Routine

In the present study we observed whether infants show online adjustments to the mother’s incipient action by looking at their sensitivity to changes as the pick-up unfolded. Twenty-three 3-month-old infants and their mothers were observed in the lab, where mothers were instructed (1) to pick-up their infants as they usually did (normal pick-up), and then (2) to delay the pick-up for 6 s after plac

Warming and Increased Respiration Have Transformed an Alpine Steppe Ecosystem on the Tibetan Plateau From a Carbon Dioxide Sink Into a Source

Cold region ecosystems store vast amounts of soil organic carbon (C), which upon warming and decomposition can affect the C balance and potentially change these ecosystems from C sinks to carbon dioxide (CO2) sources. We quantified the decadal year-round CO2 flux from an alpine steppe-ecosystem on the Tibetan Plateau using eddy covariance and automatic chamber approaches during a period of signifi

Periodic Nanoarray of Graphene pn-Junctions on Silicon Carbide Obtained by Hydrogen Intercalation

Graphene pn-junctions offer a rich portfolio of intriguing physical phenomena. They stand as the potential building blocks for a broad spectrum of future technologies, ranging from electronic lenses analogous to metamaterials in optics, to high-performance photodetectors important for a variety of optoelectronic applications. The production of graphene pn-junctions and their precise structuring at

SPIRE—a software tool for bicontinuous phase recognition : application for plastid cubic membranes

Bicontinuous membranes in cell organelles epitomize nature’s ability to create complex functional nanostructures. Like their synthetic counterparts, these membranes are characterized by continuous membrane sheets draped onto topologically complex saddle-shaped surfaces with a periodic network-like structure. Their structure sizes, (around 50–500 nm), and fluid nature make transmission electron mic

Overexpressed beta cell CART increases insulin secretion in mouse models of insulin resistance and diabetes

Impaired beta cell function and beta cell death are key features of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) is necessary for normal islet function in mice. CART increases glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vivo in mice and in vitro in human islets and CART protects beta cells against glucotoxicity-induced cell death in vitro in rats. Furthermore, beta cell

Penetration Depth and Coherence Length in the Superconductor β-PdBi2

Small angle neutron scattering experiments have been carried out in the mixed state to determine the values and anisotropy of the penetration depth and coherence length in the superconductor β-PdBi2. The distortion of the vortex lattice observed on changing the magnetic field direction suggests that the a–c anisotropy of penetration depth in β-PdBi2 is small. With the magnetic field applied along

Att bedriva sociologisk forskning i en tid av byråkratiserad etikprövning

Sverige är ett få länder i världen som reglerar forskningsetik i lag. Men vad händer när en enhetlig lagstiftning inte har hänsyn till olika forskningsdiscipliners särart, och forskningsetiken formaliseras i ämnesövergripande förordningar? Den formella process som etikprövning av forskning har utvecklats till kan innebära en utmaning för möjligheten att bedriva sociologisk forskning, både vad gäll

The development of musculoskeletal radiology for 100 years as presented in the pages of Acta Radiologica

During the last 100 years, musculoskeletal radiology has developed from bone-only radiography performed by everyone to a dedicated subspecialty, still secure in its origins in radiography but having expanded into all modalities of imaging. Like other subspecialties in radiology, it has become heavily dependent on cross-sectional and functional imaging, and musculoskeletal interventions play an imp

The Imagined Community of Lebanese Youth Activists: Resistance by Other Means

Investigation into youth activists across different fields of social and political engagement reveals a shared political subjectivity and collective self-conceptualization. In assessing Lebanese youth civic and political activism from the perspective of the youth themselves, placing their own subjectivity centrally in the analytical framework, this paper reveals an imagined community, the Civil So

Fibrinogen-like protein 2 in gastrointestinal stromal tumour

Gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST), the most common sarcoma of the gastrointestinal tract, can be treated effectively with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as imatinib. Cancer immune therapy has limited efficacy, and little is known about the immune suppressive factors in GISTs. Fibrinogen-like protein 2 (FGL2) is expressed either as a membrane-associated protein or as a secreted soluble prote

Not only Trolls are Trolling the Internet: A study on dark personality traits, online environment, and commentary styles

On the Internet, many commentary styles take place on various forums, and abuse is not uncommon. We investigated the personality traits related to individuals’ behaviors on Internet forum posting. The Dark Short Tetrad (SD4) were used to predict (N = 212) three types of commentary styles: Trolling (malicious posting), Lurking (reading/not posting) and Posting (reading/posting). The results showed
