Observation of Dresselhaus type spin splitting of zinc blende structure semiconductors by circular dichroic photoemission study

Material family of zinc blende structure semiconductors (ZBSSs) is important for novel technique such as spintronics. A study of the ZBSS spin-splitting structure in momentum space is essential when seeking to understand the exotic properties of the material. The Dresselhaus field predominates in the bulk, but the Rashba field plays important roles in states near the surface. Here, we used circula

Changes in bone mass associated with obesity and weight loss in humans : Applicability of animal models

The implications of obesity and weight loss for human bone health are not well understood. Although the bone changes associated with weight loss are similar in humans and rodents, that is not the case for obesity. In humans, obesity is generally associated with increased bone mass, an outcome which is exacerbated by advanced age and menopause. In rodents, by contrast, bone mass decreases in propor

Late-Life Depression Is Associated With Reduced Cortical Amyloid Burden : Findings From the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative Depression Project

Background: We evaluated the role of cortical amyloid deposition as a factor contributing to memory dysfunction and increased risk of dementia associated with late-life depression (LLD). Methods: A total of 119 older adult participants with a current diagnosis of major depression (LLD) from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Depression Project study and 119 nondepressed (ND) co

The effect of reversible permeabilization and post-electroporation resting on the survival of Thai basil (O. Basilicum cv. thyrsiflora) leaves during drying

Horticultural crops have a low tolerance to dehydration. In this paper, we show that the reversible electroporation (200 monopolar, rectangular pulses of 50 µs pulse duration, 760 µs between pulses and nominal field strength of 650 V/cm) of Thai basil leaves followed by 24 h resting before hot air drying at 40 °C enhanced the survivability of the tissues at certain levels of dehydration (moisture

Hematologically important mutations : The autosomal forms of chronic granulomatous disease (third update)

Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an immunodeficiency disorder affecting about 1 in 250,000 individuals. CGD patients suffer from severe, recurrent bacterial and fungal infections. The disease is caused by mutations in the genes encoding the components of the leukocyte NADPH oxidase. This enzyme produces superoxide, which is subsequently metabolized to hydrogen peroxide and other reactive oxy

Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type E (PTPRE) regulates the activation of wild-type KIT and KIT mutants differently

Activation of receptor tyrosine kinases needs tight control by tyrosine phosphatases to keep their normal function. In this study, we investigated the regulation of activation of the type III receptor tyrosine kinase KIT by protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type E (PTPRE). We found that PTPRE can associate with wild-type KIT and inhibit KIT activation in a dose-dependent manner, although the a

Exploring IL-17 in spondyloarthritis for development of novel treatments and biomarkers

Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is an umbrella term describing a family of chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases. These diseases are characterised by inflammation of the axial skeleton, peripheral joints, and entheseal insertion sites throughout the body which can lead to structural joint damage including formation of axial syndesmophytes and peripheral osteophytes. Genetic evidence, preclinical and cli

Source contributions in precipitation chemistry and analysis of atmospheric nitrogen deposition in a Sahelian dry savanna site in West Africa

Experimental data on precipitation chemistry were collected at a semi-arid savanna in Senegal (Dahra) in 2013, 2014 and 2017. The chemical composition of precipitation was analyzed for inorganic and organic ions, using ionic chromatography. The pH values of precipitation range from 4.50 to 8.50 with 89% of the samples having basic pH. The composition of precipitation was controlled by four source

När syftet inte är målet - HFD 2021 ref. 33 i ljuset av unionsrättens missbruksprincip

Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen har i HFD 2021 ref. 33 återigen bekräftatdomstolens restriktiva tillämpning av skatteflyktslagen. I skiljelinjen mellanvad som utgör lagstiftningens syfte och dess övergripande mål framträderemellertid en nyansskillnad i majoritetens och minoritetens argumentationsom kan ha betydelse för hur skatteflyktslagen i framtiden kommer att tolkasi ljuset av unionsrätten. Med s

Intraoperative Cytology for Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery : A Quality Improvement Analysis

Background: Frozen section is a standard of care procedure during thoracic surgery when an immediate diagnosis is needed. An alternative procedure is intraoperative cytology. Video-assisted thoracic surgery is currently widely used for thoracic surgical procedures. The aim of this study was to assess intraoperative cytology together with frozen section for accuracy, turnaround time, and total resp

Influences of accelerating states on supercritical n-decane heat transfer in a horizontal tube applied for scramjet engine cooling

Supercritical n-decane is applied in the regenerative cooling system of scramjet engines while scramjets are always in various irregular movements. With the desire to explore heat transfer performance of supercritical n-decane under actual flight conditions, numerical simulations and analysis of different states during the accelerated flight process are carried out under three different heat fluxe

A critical edition of the correspondence of the Swedish consul in Marseille, François Philippe Fölsch, this book takes a fresh look at trade and geopolitics in the eighteenth-century Mediterranean, the mechanisms used to combat the plague, and revolutionary events in Marseille.
