The MLL gene in chromosome band 11q23 is frequently rearranged in acute lymphoblastic and acute myeloid leukemias. To date, more than 50 different chromosomal regions are known to participate in translocations involving 11q23, many of which affect MLL. The pathogenetically important outcome of these rearrangements is most likely the creation of a fusion gene consisting of the 5' part of the MLL ge

Background Because of current cost restrictions, we studied the effect of a shorter hospital stay on function, pain and quality of life (QOL) after total hip replacement (THR). Patients and methods 50 patients from two hospitals were randomized into a study group (SG) of 27 patients receiving preoperative and postoperative education programs, as well as home visits from an outpatient team, and a c

Most patients referred to physiotherapy with low back pain are without a precise medical diagnosis. Identification of subgroups of non-specific low back pain patients may improve clinical outcomes and research efficiency. A pathoanatomic classification system has been developed, classifying patients with non-specific low back pain into 12 different syndromes and three subcategories based on histor

Essay regarding current debates in Sweden about the various functions of art criticism in relation to the public sphere. Language: Swedish.

Play audiometry is part of the general developmental screening covering 4-year-old children in the city of Malmo (Sweden). In an open study, 10% of the cohort was tested with transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs), using the ILO88 system. The aim was to reveal a hearing loss exceeding 25 dB HL in 4-year-old children. As the first step in determining whether emissions can be used as an eff

Background. During pregnancy and parturition a remodeling within the extracellular matrix of the cervix and the corpus uteri occurs, which is of fundamental importance to a normal labor. The aim of this study is to identify the major proteoglycans in corpus uteri of non-pregnant subjects. Methods. From human uterine tissue proteoglycans were extracted and purified using CsCl-density gradient centr

Prompt proton decay lines in Cu-58 have been studied by means of high-resolution in-beam particle-gamma coincidence spectroscopy using the GAMMASPHERE Ge-detector array in conjunction with a dedicated set of ancillary detectors including four DeltaE-E silicon-strip telescopes. High-spin states in Cu-58 have been populated via the heavy-ion fusion-evaporation reaction Si-28(Ar-36, 1alpha1p1n) at 14

High-spin states in Cs-123 were populated in the Ni-64(Ni-64,p4n) reaction at a beam energy of 265 MeV. Gamma-ray coincidences were measured using the Gammasphere spectrometer. Two additional bands have been placed in the level scheme and the four previously known bands have been extended to higher spin. At the highest spins, two of the bands show irregular level sequences. These structures of non

Hyaluronan is a free glycosaminoglycan which is abundant in the extracellular matrix of the developing brain. Although not covalently linked to any protein it can act as a backbone molecule forming aggregates with chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of the lectican family and link proteins. Using neurocan-GFP as a direct histochemical probe we analyzed the distribution and organization of hyaluronan

Popular Abstract in Swedish Numeriska methoder har används för att beräkna turbulent strömning och värmeöverföring i komplexa kanaler med olika turbulens modeller.Th need for a reliable and reasonable accurate turbulence model without specific convergence problem for calculating duct flows in industrial applications has become more evident. In this study a general computational method has been developed for calculating turbulent quantities in any arbitrary three dimensional duct. Four different turbulence models for predicting the turbulent Reynolds stresse

Most of the Scandinavian members of the orchid genus Dactylorhiza are included in the D. incarnata/D. maculata polyploid complex. Molecular data obtained during the last decade have given a better understanding of evolutionary patterns in this complex and explain why it is taxonomically difficult. The data reveal that allotetraploids have been formed repeatedly by hybridization between the same pa
