Prurigo Simplex or "Itchy Red Bump" Disease : Review and Case Series

Prurigo simplex or "itchy red bump" disease is a pruritic papular eruption. The objective of this study was to delineate the diagnostic criteria for this disease. A PubMed search was performed for: "prurigo simplex", "prurigo simplex subacuta", "subacute prurigo", "chronic papular dermatitis in adults" and "itchy red bump disease". Medical charts of patients with prurigo diagnoses in a university

Child suicides in Sweden, 2000–2018

Although child mortality is decreasing in Sweden, an increase in suicide rates has been previously observed among children and adolescents collectively. To increase knowledge about trends, demographics, and means in child suicides, data including all child (< 18 years) suicides in Sweden in 2000 through 2018 were retrieved from the Swedish National Board of Forensic Medicine. In all, a total of 41

vHIT Testing of Vertical Semicircular Canals With Goggles Yield Different Results Depending on Which Canal Plane Being Tested

Objective: The use of goggles to assess vertical semicircular canal function has become a standard method in vestibular testing, both in clinic and in research, but there are different methods and apparatus in use. The aim of this study was to determine what the cause of the systematic differences is between gain values in testing of the vertical semicircular canals with two different video head i

Amplification of ERBB2 (HER2) in embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma : A potential treatment target in rare cases?

The ERBB2 gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase also known as HER2. The gene is amplified and overexpressed in one-fifth of breast carcinomas; patients with such tumors benefit from targeted treatment with trastuzumab or other drugs blocking the receptor. In addition, ERBB2 has been shown to be amplified and/or overexpressed in a variety of other malignancies. Notably, both alveolar and embryona

The value of external reviews in the secondary green bond market

In the green bond market, bond issuers can obtain various types of external reviews to validate their green claims. This paper examines the impact of external reviews in the form of verification, second party opinion (SPO), and green bond rating on the yield spread between a green bond and a paired conventional bond in the secondary green bond market. We perform coarsened exact matching, followed

PATZ1 fusions define a novel molecularly distinct neuroepithelial tumor entity with a broad histological spectrum

Large-scale molecular profiling studies in recent years have shown that central nervous system (CNS) tumors display a much greater heterogeneity in terms of molecularly distinct entities, cellular origins and genetic drivers than anticipated from histological assessment. DNA methylation profiling has emerged as a useful tool for robust tumor classification, providing new insights into these hetero

Factor endowments, vent for surplus and involutionary process in rural developing economies

This article seeks to provide a new analytical framework based on factor endowments to understand growth in rural economies without structural transformation. More concretely, it explores the variation in farmers’ ability to respond to new commercial opportunities. To complement the extensive literature on the economic and institutional effects of factor endowments, this paper revisits two influen

Investigation of the clinical inter-observer bias in prostate fiducial marker image registration between CT and MR images

Background and purpose: Inter-modality image registration between computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images is associated with systematic uncertainties and the magnitude of these uncertainties is not well documented. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential uncertainty of gold fiducial marker (GFM) registration for localized prostate cancer and to estimate the i

An inter-day assessment of the ABC parameters in the evaluation of progressive keratoconus

The progression of keratoconus is commonly determined by comparing the results of corneal tomographic measurements on different occasions. However, investigations on the repeatability of measurements are commonly performed within the same day, thus not taking the inter-day variation into account. The effect of keratoconus disease severity on the measurement error is also seldom considered. In this

Structural stability and artificial buckling modes in topology optimization

This paper demonstrates how a strain energy transition approach can be used to remove artificial buckling modes that often occur in stability constrained topology optimization problems. To simulate the structural response, a nonlinear large deformation hyperelastic simulation is performed, wherein the fundamental load path is traversed using Newton’s method and the critical buckling load levels ar

Review Topography of Sound Art

Austrian artist and director of ZKM Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany, Peter Weibel (Odessa, 1944), curates a book/catalogue of the mythical exhibition Sound Art, Sound as Medium of Art, that took place between March 2012 and February 2013 in Karlsruhe, with nearly one thousand images of sound art pieces. Along with a very detailed historical trace of sound as a form of art, the book

Implementation of European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) recommendations for small-bowel capsule endoscopy into clinical practice : Results of an official ESGE survey

Background We aimed to document international practices in small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE), measuring adherence to European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) technical and clinical recommendations. Methods Participants reached through the ESGE contact list completed a 52-item web-based survey. Results 217 responded from 47 countries (176 and 41, respectively, from countries

Svenskt bokmuseum : "Till intet gagn"

Svenskt bokindustrimuseum initierades av Waldemar Zachrisson vid sekelskiftet 1900 och var kopplat till Svenska Boktryckareföreningen. Artikeln är den andra i en serie som behandlar museets historia.

Mossfloran på Höörssandstenen

The Jurassic sandstones around Höör and Vittseröd in central Skåne, southern-most Sweden are almost unique for Sweden and have been subjected to quarrying for at least 1000 years to produce millstones and building blocks for major buildings including the Lund cathedral. In the present study, the bryophyte flora of 17 such old or ancient sandstone quarries is investigated and described. A total of

Svenskt bokmuseum : "En påle i köttet"

Svenskt bokindustrimuseum initierades av Waldemar Zachrisson vid sekelskiftet 1900 och var kopplat till Svenska Boktryckareföreningen. Artikeln är den tredje i en serie som behandlar museets historia. Artikeln täcker tiden cirka 1920–1990 och behandlar bl a skapandet av boktryckerimuseet Officina Typographica på Skansen.
