Luminescence dating of aeolian–coastal events on the Kristianstad plain, SE Sweden

Aeolian–coastal sediments and landforms are excellent palaeoenvironmental archives, but chronological studies of coastal records are scarce in Sweden. In this study, we provide luminescence and radiocarbon ages of aeolian activity and coastal landscape evolution on the Kristianstad plain, SE Sweden, based on the investigations of two foredunes and two inland dunes at Åhus and Vittskövle. Additiona

Performance comparison of time-frequency distributions for estimation of instantaneous frequency of heart rate variability signals

The instantaneous frequency (IF) of a non-stationary signal is usually estimated from a time-frequency distribution (TFD). The IF of heart rate variability (HRV) is an important parameter because the power in a frequency band around the IF can be used for the interpretation and analysis of the respiratory rate but also for a more accurate analysis of heart rate (HR) signals. In this study, we comp

A radial head prosthesis appears to be unnecessary in Mason-IV fracture dislocation

Background and purpose — Previous reports on elbow injuries with concomitant comminute radial head fracture are difficult to interpret, since they include an array of different soft-tissue and bony injuries around the elbow. We focused on Mason-IV fracture dislocations of the elbow and retrospectively reviewed 2 treatment options: radial head resection or replacement with a radial head arthroplast

Ion currents of cardiomyocytes in different regions of the Göttingen minipig heart

Introduction The Göttingen minipig is a promising model for pharmacological safety assessment and for translational research in cardiology. We have examined the main ion currents in cardiomyocytes of the minipig heart. Methods Cardiac cells were isolated from different cardiac regions (endo-, mid- and epicardial left ventricle and right ventricle) from Göttingen minipigs and examined using the who

Estimation and Testing in Panel Data with Cross-Section Dependence

This thesis makes a contribution the econometrics of panel data with cross-section dependence (CSD). It consists of five self-contained papers. The most popular approach to account for CSD is to attribute the co-movements of observed variables across entities to unobserved common factors and to estimate these factors via simple cross-section averages of the data. The chapters in this thesis invest

DCIP tomografi för kartläggning av jorddjup och strukturer i berg

Det finns planer på att bygga ett energilager i berget vid Önneslöv nära Dalby i Skåne. Berggrunden utgörs av en del av Romeleåsen och består huvudsakligen av gnejs med inslag av amfibolit och diabasgångar. Området ligger omedelbart söder om Sydstens stora bergtäkt, där det framgår att berget till stora delar är kraftigt uppsprucket med lervittrade zoner av olika storlek. I samband med byggande geThere are plans to build an energy storage in the rock at Önneslöv near Dalby in Skåne. The bedrock is of a part of Romeleåsen and mainly comprises gneiss, with elements of amphibolite and dolerite intrusions. The area is located immediately south of the Sydsten’s large rock quarry, which shows that the rock is mostly heavily fractured with clay weathered zones of different sizes. In connection wi

Irreversible Kidney Damage due to Multicentric Castleman's Disease

Castleman's Disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder accompanied by marked systemic inflammatory response. Morphological diagnosis of CD requires biopsy of the whole of the involved lymph node tissue. Three histologic variants have already been described in CD morphology (hyaline vascular, plasma-cell, and mixed). In this study, we report a case of a multicentric Castleman's disease of

New results on the halo structure of 8B

The longitudinal momentum distribution of Be fragments after fragmentation of B and the one-proton removal cross section (σ-1p) in a carbon target were measured at 1440 MeV/u with the fragment separator FRS used as an energy-loss spectrometer. The results show a narrow momentum distribution with a FWHM value of 91 ± 5 MeV/c and a large cross-section, σ-1p = 98 ± 6 mb. Both these results support th

Adaptive mitochondrial reprogramming and resistance to PI3K therapy

BACKGROUND: Small molecule inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) have been developed as molecular therapy for cancer, but their efficacy in the clinic is modest, hampered by resistance mechanisms.METHODS: We studied the effect of PI3K therapy in patient-derived tumor organotypic cultures (from five patient samples), three glioblastoma (GBM) tumor cell lines, and an intracranial model

A fast deterministic detection of small pattern graphs in graphs without large cliques

We show that for several pattern graphs on four vertices (e.g., C4), their induced copies in host graphs with n vertices and no clique on k + 1 vertices can be deterministically detected in time Õ (nωkμ + n2k2), where Õ (f) stands for O(f(log f)c) for some constant c, and μ ≈ 0. 46530. The aforementioned pattern graphs have a pair of non-adjacent vertices whose neighborhoods are equal. By consider

Early evolution of the land plant circadian clock

While angiosperm clocks can be described as an intricate network of interlocked transcriptional feedback loops, clocks of green algae have been modelled as a loop of only two genes. To investigate the transition from a simple clock in algae to a complex one in angiosperms, we performed an inventory of circadian clock genes in bryophytes and charophytes. Additionally, we performed functional charac

Advanced multiconfiguration methods for complex atoms : I. Energies and wave functions

Multiconfiguration wave function expansions combined with configuration interaction methods are a method of choice for complex atoms where atomic state functions are expanded in a basis of configuration state functions. Combined with a variational method such as the multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock (MCHF) or multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock (MCDHF), the associated set of radial functions can b
