Chirality is a fundamental feature of asymmetric molecules and of critical importance for intermolecular interactions. The growth of amyloid fibrils displays a strong enantioselectivity, which is manifested as elongation through the addition of monomers of the same, but not opposite, chirality as the parent aggregate. Here we ask whether also secondary nucleation on the surface of amyloid fibrils,
Understanding how organisms adapt to the environment is a compelling question in modern evolutionary biology. Genetic assimilation provides an alternative hypothesis to explain adaptation, in which phenotypic plasticity is first triggered by environmental factors, followed by selection on genotypes that reduce the plastic expression of phenotypes. To investigate the evidence of genetic assimilatio
In the summer of 1993, two Russian scientists from the Institute of Physics in Nizhny Novgorod drove the 1, 934 km to Umeå, where I was based at that time, in their red Lada car loaded with a home-built Ti:Sa laser. Within a few days, the laser was put in operation, pumped by a small argon-ion laser, and produced stable -100 fs pulses at 790 nm. These pulses were applied to our favorite topic at t
Introduction: Emergency departments (ED) globally are addressing the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic with varying degrees of success. We leveraged the 17-country, Emergency Medicine Education & Research by Global Experts (EMERGE) network and non-EMERGE ED contacts to understand ED emergency preparedness and practices globally when combating the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We elect
Background: While housing and neighborhood features have the potential to impact opportunities for active aging, there is a lack of knowledge related to how older people reason regarding their housing situation and how housing and fulfillment of relocation are associated with active and healthy aging. Objective: The objectives of Prospective RELOC-AGE are to study housing choices and relocation an
Droppfot leder till försämrad gångförmåga och balans. Patienter med droppfot beskriver en påtagligt reducerad livskvalitet, och många har behov av såväl gånghjälpmedel som en ortos. Patienter med stroke har ofta en symtomgivande droppfot.Droppfot kan behandlas kirurgiskt med bland annat senförflyttningar med gott resultat. En multicenterstudie pågår där syftet är att utvärdera effekten av kirurgisFoot drop (FD) can be caused by a variety of diseases and injuries. FD leads to walking difficulties and reduced balance which also can lead to a higher risk of falling. Patient with a stroke often have an equinovarus deformity of the foot together with the DF. There is a need to optimize and standardize the treatment for patients with FD across different medical specialities. Surgical interventio
The invention relates to an inositol phosphate containing pharmaceutical composition which comprises an aliphatic ester or ether for improvement of the bioavailability of the inositol phosphate in mammals including man at non-parenteral administration. The invention also covers the use of at least one aliphatic ester or ether compound for the preparing of an inositol phosphate containing medicamen
Willow (Salix spp.) trees have been used commercially since the 1980s to produce renewable energy. Some benefits with these trees are that they can clean soil from heavy metals, reduce the risk of nutrient leakage and eutrophication. They could be an alternative to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel, but they are known to emit high rates of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs)
Background:Cancer rehabilitation is central for helping patients and relatives create a functional everyday life based on the changes in life conditions. The needs are highly individual and include physical, mental, and social challenges. Cancer rehabilitation programs offer coping strategies, including guidelines on how to handle emotions.Objective:This paper presents a participatory design activ
PAH och CTEPH är sällsynta sjukdomar, präglade av andfåddhet, vilket ska utredas tidigt intill klar diagnos föreligger.Omhändertagande vid PAH och CTEPH kräver en multidisciplinär mottagning med specialistutbildade läkare samt kontaktsjuksköterskor.Samarbete mellan SveFPH och patientföreningen PAH Sverige har skapat en nationell samsyn kring PAH- och CTEPH-specialistcentrum och -mottagningar vid lThe PAH and CTEPH care in Sweden is since 2007 structured in collaboration with the Swedish Society of Pulmonary Hypertension (SveFPH) and centralized to pulmonary hypertension (PH) centers at the university hospitals. At biannual SveFPH meetings, ideas are exchanged to spread new knowledge on diagnostics and treatment in Sweden. The PAH-CTEPH centers are to be further stimulated to provide indivi
Hudlymfom är en heterogen grupp av sjukdomar där lymfomcellerna primärt uppträder i huden. T-cellslymfom utgör 70–80 procent och B-cellslymfom 20–30 procent av de primära kutana lymfomen. Mycosis fungoides är det vanligaste hudlymfomet.Den kliniska bilden vid mycosis fungoides kan vara svårtolkad och kan likna vanliga hudsjukdomar som psoriasis och eksem. De histomorfologiska förändringarna vid tiPrimary cutaneous lymphoma is a heterogeneous group of diseases where the malignant lymphocytes are primarily present in the skin at the time of diagnosis. The most common type of primary cutaneous lymphoma is mycosis fungoides. Early stages of mycosis fungoides present with flat or slightly elevated red skin lesions and can resemble eczema or psoriasis. In advanced stages erythrodermia or skin tu
