BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Polymorphic molecules expressed on the surface of certain blood cells are traditionally categorized as blood groups and human platelet or neutrophil antigens. CD36 is widely considered a platelet antigen (Nak a ) and anti-CD36 can cause foetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) in CD36-negative pregnant women. CD36 is used as a marker of differentiation in earl

This chapter addresses the organization known as the Satanic Reds, which was founded in the latter half of the 1990s by Tani Jantsang and Philip Marsh. The organization has been described as a ”virtual audience cult,” and even though it is clear that several people have contributed in shaping it, the organization has been especially influenced by its two founders. Jantsang and Marsh have spoken fo

We have for the first time identified the early stellar disk in the Milky Way by using a combination of elemental abundances and kinematics. Using data from APOGEE DR17 and Gaia we select stars in the Mg–Mn–Al–Fe plane with elemental abundances indicative of an accreted origin and find stars with both halo-like and disk-like kinematics. The stars with halo-like kinematics lie along a lower sequenc

Background: Words are a natural way to describe mental states in humans, while numerical values are a convenient and effective way to carry out quantitative psychological research. With the growing interest of researchers in gaming disorder, the number of screening tools is growing. However, they all require self-quantification of mental states. The rapid development of natural language processing

Distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication is envisioned as one of the key paradigms of future MIMO systems. To investigate non-wide-sense stationarities (non-WSSs) in distributed massive MIMO channels, this paper first presents an indoor channel measurement campaign, where distributed arrays with a total of 128 elements were implemented. Then relying on the correlatio

Den visuella omvärlden kan vara dynamisk och föränderlig vilket skapar otydlighet i sensorisk information. Dessutom genererar hjärnans neurala aktivitet ”brus” som bidrar till denna otydlighet. Trots dessa svårigheter kan det visuella systemet i hjärnan bearbeta denna otydliga information och skapa en kontinuerlig och stabil visuell upplevelse, vilket låter oss navigera i omvärlden med trygghet. E

This paper explores the evolving landscape of regional innovation policy, focusing on the interplay between traditional cluster policies and emerging transformative agendas. Over the past decade, policy initiatives aimed at fostering place-based, collaborative innovation have proliferated. However, questions arise regarding the adequacy of existing policy tools in accommodating newer, transformati

The key concepts and reference points of International Relations (IR) are informed by a sedentarist worldview anchored on the territorial state. IR’s conception of its subject-matter is thus ‘static’ in both senses of the word: state-centric and immobile. One of the consequences of this sedentarist worldview has been a neglect of the world’s nomads. Defined by their spatial mobility, nomads have b

Alongside established heritage institutions, family historians are central figures in the ecosystem of digital heritage, both as contributors to and users of digitized historical sources. With that in mind, this research aims for a wide examination of family historians’ engagement with the broader selection of available digital platforms, providing knowledge about how and why they choose to use on

Interleukin-27 (IL-27) uniquely assembles p28 and EBI3 subunits to a heterodimeric cytokine that signals via IL-27Rα and gp130. To provide the structural framework for receptor activation by IL-27 and its emerging therapeutic targeting, we report here crystal structures of mouse IL-27 in complex with IL-27Rα and of human IL-27 in complex with SRF388, a monoclonal antibody undergoing clinical trial

Objective: To compare the reproductive outcome after early miscarriage between women managed expectantly and those treated with vaginal misoprostol. Methods: This study was a planned secondary analysis of data collected prospectively in a randomized controlled trial comparing expectant management with vaginal misoprostol treatment (single dose of 800 µg) in women with early embryonic or anembryoni

One cornerstone of palliative care is improving the family’s quality of life (QoL). The principles of palliative care have not been sufficiently applied in nursing homes. The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of QoL of next of kin of frail older persons in nursing homes after an educational intervention concerning palliative care. This qualitative interview study with 37 next of

In this chapter, we describe the post-colonial history of higher education (HE) in Kenya and Uganda to explain why domestic doctoral education is still at a young stage in both countries. We present their national HE frameworks, and thereafter focus on local policy and practice in two public universities: Makerere University in Uganda and the University of Nairobi in Kenya. Our results are informe

Multi-nucleotide variants (MNVs), defined as two or more nearby variants existing on the same haplotype in an individual, are a clinically and biologically important class of genetic variation. However, existing tools typically do not accurately classify MNVs, and understanding of their mutational origins remains limited. Here, we systematically survey MNVs in 125,748 whole exomes and 15,708 whole

The customer order decoupling point (CODP) is the point in the supply chain where the product is linked to a customer order and is, by definition, the last stock point along the supply chain. The CODP decouples the upstream operations that are made to stock from the downstream operations that are triggered by customer orders. We employed a systematic literature review of the empirical research on

Despite tremendous progress seen in the computational fluid dynamics community for the past few decades, numerical tools are still too slow for the simulation of practical flow problems, consuming thousands or even millions of computational core-hours. To enable feasible multi-disciplinary analysis and design, the numerical techniques need to be accelerated by orders of magnitude. Reduced-order mo

The 5th generation of mobile networks introduces a new Network Function (NF) that was not present in previous generations, namely the Network Data Analytics Function (NWDAF). Its primary objective is to provide advanced analytics services to various entities within the network and also towards external application services in the 5G ecosystem. One of the key use cases of NWDAF is mobility trajecto
