Historical review of 100 years of relationship between Christians and Muslims in East Africa, with particular reference to challenges of the Christian theological education in relation to Islam.

The Bicoid (Bcd) protein gradient is generally believed to be established in pre-blastoderm Drosophila embryos by the diffusion of Bcd protein after translation of maternal mRNA, which serves as a strictly localized source of Bcd at the anterior pole. However, we previously published evidence that the Bcd gradient is preceded by a bcd mRNA gradient. Here, we have revisited and extended this observ

Hans Christian Andersen's tale "The Marsh King's Daughter" (1858) is analysed in relation to Birgitta Trotzig's prose tale of the same title, Dykungens dotter (1985), with the emphasis on Andersen's tale which would seem to be a pious Christian morality in which evil is destroyed and the powers of light conquer darkness. At the same time, Andersen's symbols make clear that darkness is a necessary

Today’s hospitals in Sweden are all dependent of large networks of suppliers of medical supplies. These consist of many supply chains that are regularly exposed to both external and internal risks. One hospital affected by these risks is UMAS (Malmö University Hospital). UMAS is dependent on its supply chains to work without disruptions but it is unclear what risks they might be exposed to and how

Syftet med denna kvantitativa studie var att följa upp extremt för tidigt födda (före vecka 29) när de nått vuxen ålder. De extremt för tidigt födda jämfördes med en kontrollgrupp bestående av jämnåriga födda i fullgången tid. Deltagarna i studien hämtades från en uppföljningsstudie av extremt för tidigt födda som tidigare följts upp vid 10 och 18 års ålder. Deltagarna var vid tiden för studien 27The aim of this quantitative study was to follow up children born extremely preterm (before week 29) in adulthood. The group of extremely preterm adults was compared to peers born at term. The extremely preterm and the control group have previously been followed up at ages 10 and 18. At the time of this study the participants were 27-28 years old. Questionnaires were sent to the two groups and 77

The BRCA1 gene is thought to exert its main function early in life. We, therefore, studied the effects of BRCA1 mutations on birth weight and birth length. This was carried out by comparing 33 women with and without mutations. Birth weight and length were obtained from a self-administered questionnaire. BRCA1 mutations carriers had a significantly lower birth weight (P = 0.0041) compared with non-

Originally studied in relation to aging and cancer research, telomerase is now also investigated in relation to psychiatric disorders and treatments. Based on emerging clinical and preclinical data, we hypothesise that telomerase activation could represent a novel element mediating the mechanism of action of certain psychopharmacological interventions (e.g. antidepressants, lithium and antipsychot

It has been proposed that hyaluronan-binding proteoglycans play an important role as guiding cues during neural crest (NC) cell migration, but their precise function has not been elucidated. In this study, we examine the distribution, structure and putative role of the two major hyaluronan-binding proteoglycans, PG-M/versicans and aggrecan, during the course of avian NC development. PG-M/versicans

Protein Microchip Array technology makes it possible to examine patterns of protein expressions and modifications. Current technologies such as two-dimensional get electrophoresis (2-DE) in combination with mass spectrometry allows the identification of biologically relevant proteins with high resolving power, but has also considerable limitations. Most spots observed in 2-DE are from high abundan

Several studies have shown that alpha-ketoglutaric acid (AKG) increases serum levels of proline and has beneficial effects on skeletal development. We studied the effect of alpha-ketoglutaric (AKG) acid calcium salt (6 g AKG and 1,68 Ca/day) or calcium alone (1.68 Ca/day) on serum C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) and osteocalcin (OC), as well as lumbar spine bone minera
