Thrombocytopenia in bacteraemia and association with bacterial species

Thrombocytopenia is common in patients with invasive bacterial infections. Bacteria can activate platelets, but it is unclear if this affects platelet count. The aim of this study was to examine whether bacteraemia with Staphylococcus aureus, which readily activate human platelets, was more likely to be complicated by thrombocytopenia than bacteraemia with Escherichia coli or Streptococcus pneumon

Twenty-first century remote sensing technologies are revolutionizing the study of tropical forests

The fields of tropical biology and conservation face significant transformations due to rapid technological developments in remote sensing. Other fields (e.g. Archeology) are experiencing this momentous change even more rapidly. In this article, we review some of the challenges that the fields of tropical biology and conservation face during the first quarter of the twenty-first century from the p

An automatic static perimeter, design and pilot study

An instrument for automatic static perimetry at 14 points across a meridian was constructed and used in a pilot study. The machine was controlled by a computer and the subjects responded to the light stimuli by pressing one of two push-buttons. Most people investigated readily understood the rules at testing. "Blunders" made by the subject were, however, so common, that allowance had to be made in

Cross-Linguistic Influence in Early Word Learning

It has often been the presumption that reverse cross-linguistic influence requires an advanced fluency in the second language. This assumption has led to much of the research focusing on the impact of the speaker’s existing languages towards their second or third language. Our mental lexicons are, however, in a constant state of change through learning, forgetting, and consolidation, and we should

Integration of extraction with affinity precipitation

Conventional aqueous two-phase extraction by spontaneous partitioning has often problems with low specificity. The introduction of an affinity ligand into one of the phases has been attempted to enhance the specificity of protein partitioning (1-7; Chapters 29-31). However, this procedure still has some limitations in the effective removal of impurities as well as recovery and reuse of the ligand.

Making popular science accessible: Uncovering AD skills and competences

The paper focuses on skills and competences used in audio description (AD) of a Swedish popular scientific journal. The journal, containing complex images and visualizations, is made accessible for visually impaired audiences by producing an audio version. The task is to create a verbal description to enhance understanding and enjoyment. The interpretative process of meaning-making is uncovered by

Arsenic Research and Global Sustainability: Proceedings of the Sixth International Congress on Arsenic in the Environment (As2016), June 19-23, 2016, Stockholm, Sweden

The Congress "Arsenic in the Environment" offers an international, multi- and interdisciplinary discussion platform for research and innovation aimed towards a holistic solution to the problem posed by the environmental toxin arsenic, with considerable societal impact. The congress has focused on cutting edge and breakthrough research in physical, chemical, toxicological, medical, agricultural and

Vatten, vatten, bara vanligt vatten?

Vatten är en naturresurs som vi kanske tar lite för mycket för givet i vårt land. Grundvattenforskaren charlotte Sparrenbom menar att skyddet av den kanske viktigaste naturresursen för vår överlevnad är kraftigt eftersatt. hon vill väcka till eftertanke om hur vårt fotavtryck ser ut för kommande generationer, och föreslå sätt att komma igång med bättre skydd av vårt vatten.
