The degree of arthritis of the cervical spine was retrospectively studied in cervical spine radiographs from 400 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. In the same cervical radiographs the arthritic destruction of the temporomandibular joints was measured as diminished ramal height from the mandibular angle to the palato-occipital line. Reduced ramal height was found in 76 patients, 69 women and 7 me
Popular Abstract in Swedish Som ett skepp uti vilda havet, den kristna församlingen i ärkebiskop Laurentius Petris verk I 1593 års Uppsala mötes "förening om läran, ceremonier och kyrkotukt" finns följande avsnitt : Thernäst bejake och vederkännes vi oss alldeles vele holle vidh the Apostoliske, Niceniske och Athanasii symbola, såsom och vidh then äldste, rätte och oförrandrede Ausburgiske confeThe aim of this thesis is to present the ecclesiology of Laurentius Petri, a former student at Wittenberg who was archbishop of Uppsala from 1531 to his death 1573. He had a decisive role in the founding of the Church of Sweden, especially through his Swedish Church Ordinance(1571). Nevertheless most of his seventy-three writings are little known and have been rarely studied. Chapter one st
Background: Pancreatic acinar-like metaplasia has previously been described in the gastric mucosa and in the distal part of the oesophagus. The resemblance to pancreatic acinar cells prompted us to study the possible occurrence of secretory pancreatic proteins in these cells. Methods: Seven specimens obtained from the distal oesophagus at gastroscopy where routine microscopy showed pancreatic acin
In a previous study (Chemical Physics Letters 2005, 401, 385) we computed the optical rotatory dispersion of (S)-propylene oxide in gas phase and solution using the hierarchy of coupled cluster models CCS, CC2, CCSD, and CC3. Even for the highly correlated CC3 model combined with a flexible basis set, the theoretical gas-phase specific rotation at 355 nm was found to be negative in contrast to the
The complete mitochondrial genome of the endangered Banded Hare wallaby (Lagostrophus fasciatus) was sequenced and used for phylogenetic analysis. The data set consisted of 10 377 nucleotides (3459 amino acids) from three kangaroo species. The phylogenetic analyses strongly supported the hypothesis that the Banded Hare wallaby is the sister-group of the wallaroo (subfamily Macropodidae). In additi
Let ζ(t), η(t) be continuously differentiable Gaussian processes with mean zero, unit variance, and common covariance function r(t), and such that ζ(t) and η(t) are independent for all t, and consider the movements of a particle with time-varying coordinates (ζ(t), η(t)). The time and location of the exists of the particle across a circle with radius u defines a point process in R3 with its points
Chiral bifunctional oxabicyclodecanediones (keto lactones) were synthesized from the corresponding bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane diones 1-5 by employing a regioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation. Enantiomers with high enantiomeric excess were obtained by chiral HPLC enantiomer separation on microcrystalline, triacetylcellulose column. Circular dichroism spectra of molecules containing two chromophores, na
Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) results in 2 types of tissue deformation, macrodeformation (ie, wound contraction) and microdeformation (ie, the interaction of tissue and dressing on a microscopic level). These effects have been delineated for one type of wound filler, foam, but not for gauze. The mechanical deformation initiates a signaling cascade which ultimately leads to wound healing.
Clinical studies have suggested a link between the sensory trigeminal system and the parasympathetic ganglia. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a sensory neuropeptide which plays an important role in vasodilatation and pain transmission in craniocervical structures. The present study was designed to examine if CGRP and CGRP receptor components are present in the human sphenopalatine gangli
Only in a handful of cases in world history has female rule been seen by contemporary observers as desirable and been sustained for long periods of time. Drawing on European, Malay and Chinese sources, this article investigates the reasons for the institutionalisation of female rule in the Malay sultanate of Patani (presently in southern Thailand) for most of the period between c. 1584 and 1711. I
Traditional industrial robots have problems interacting with an uncalibrated, ill-defined environment where part geometry and position may vary. Active force control technology has therefore been suggested as a solution to add the extra sensory dimension needed to handle manufacturing tasks like assembly and deburring. The technology is proposed to give increased flexibility compared to other solu
The newly identified protein BLAP75/RMI1 associates with the helicase BLM and is critical for the function of the homologous recombination complex. Mutations altering BLM function are associated with highly elevated cancer susceptibility (Bloom's syndrome). We have analyzed the common polymorphism Ser455Asn in RMI1 and its association with cancer risk in acute myeloid leukemia (AML, N=93), myelody
