Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is an indolent, late-metastasizing malignant soft-tissue tumor that is often mistaken for either more benign or more malignant tumor types. Cytogenetic analyses have identified a recurrent balanced translocation t(7;16) (q32-34;p11), later shown by molecular genetic approaches to result in a FUS/CREB3L2 fusion gene. Whereas preliminary studies suggest that thi

Telychian to Sheinwoodian conodonts (Pterospathodus eopennatus ssp. n. 1 Zone through the Ozarkodina sagitta rhenana Superzone) were studied in detail for their oxygen isotope composition. The Upper Kockelella ranuliformis and Ozarkodina sagitta rhenana Zones represent the peak interval of the Sheinwoodian positive δ18Oapatite excursion reflecting the coolest conditions with marine sea–water tempe

Two patients who developed frank arterial bleeding after combined microwave-induced hyperthermia and radiotherapy are described. One patient received re-irradiation and hyperthermia for recurrent metastatic neck nodes of a mesopharyngeal carcinoma. Full course radiotherapy had been given 6 years previously and a right-sided radical neck node dissection had been performed 4 months earlier because o

This study presents a novel approach for indirect integration of InAs nanowires on 2('') Si substrates. We have investigated and developed epitaxial growth of InAs nanowires on 2('') Si substrates via the introduction of a thin yet high-quality InAs epitaxial layer grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. We demonstrate well-aligned nanowire growth including precise position and diameter control

This paper describes the trigger and offline reconstruction, identification and energy calibration algorithms for hadronic decays of tau leptons employed for the data collected from pp collisions in 2012 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC center-of-mass energy root s = 8 TeV. The performance of these algorithms is measured in most cases with Z decays to tau leptons using the full 2012 dataset, cor

Helicobacter species are fastidious bacterial pathogens that are difficult to culture by standard methods. A PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) technique for detection and identification of different Helicobacter species was developed and evaluated. The method involves PCR detection of Helicobacter DNA by genus-specific primers that target 16S rDNA and subsequent differentiatio

Long-range, seasonal migration is a widespread phenomenon among insects, allowing them to track and exploit abundant but ephemeral resources over vast geographical areas. However, the basic patterns of how species shift across multiple locations and seasons are unknown in most cases, even though migrant species comprise an important component of the temperate-zone biota. The painted lady butterfly

For the C*-crossed product C*(Sigma) associated with an arbitrary topological dynamical system Sigma = (X, sigma), we provide a detailed analysis of the commutant, in C*(Sigma), of C(X) and the commutant of the image of C(X) under an arbitrary Hilbert space representation (pi) over tilde of C*(E), In particular, we give a concrete description of these commutants, and also determine their spectra.

A major concern for contemporary organizations is how to gain support of business processes from standardized software package such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. To gain support adoption of such standardized information and communication technologies (ICTs) demands that either the system is adjusted to existing business processes or that business processes are adjusted to the syst

Body position changes (BPCs) are manifested as shifts in the electrical axis of the heart, which may lead to ST changes in the ECG, misclassified as ischemic events. This paper presents a novel BPC detector based on a Laplacian noise model. It is assumed that a BPC can be modelled as a step-like change in the two coefficient series that result from the Karhunen-Loeve transform of the QRS complex a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Varför lade människor ner stenar, ben och redskap i vatten och våtmarker under förhistorisk tid? Och hur kan arkeologin skapa förståelse för denna typ av lämningar? Vanligen tolkas de nedlagda föremålen som offer, men det är ett begrepp som är förknippat med en rad problem. Bland annat riskerar användningen av offerbegreppet att dölja olikheter och nyanser i människornaThis thesis deals with questions concerning theoretical perspectives and archaeological interpretation. It is also a thesis about prehistoric wetland depositions, as they illustrate the discussion. The starting point of the study is the use of the concept of sacrifice (or offering) in Scandinavian archaeology. There are several assumptions, both explicit and implicit, that are considered problemat

Distributions sensitive to the underlying event in QCD jet events have been measured with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, based on of proton-proton collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 . Charged-particle mean and densities of all-particle and charged-particle multiplicity and have been measured in regions azimuthally transverse to the hardest jet in each event. These are present

We describe quantum-size and binding-site effects on the chemical and local field enhancement mechanisms of surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS), in which the pyridine molecule is adsorbed on one of the vertices of the Ag-20 tetrahedron. We first investigated the influence of the binding site on normal Raman scattering (NRS) and excited state properties of optical absorption spectro

The serial Color Word Test, which is a semi-experimental way to differentiate adaptive behavior in stressful situations, was administered at baseline to men participating in the prospective cohort study "Men born in 1914". During follow-up, from 1982-1983 until December 31, 1996, 133 men experienced a myocardial infarction. Four patterns of adaptive behavior in 2 separate dimensions, the Variabili

PIP: At the University Hospital in Lund, Sweden, researchers grouped healthy nulliparous women aged 19-25 into current, former, and never users of low-dose combined oral contraceptives (OCs) to examine the effect of the OCs on the levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The subjects were from two independent samples. Based on the day the blood was sampled, their

Two new types of multipass gas cells with circular and elliptical cross-sections were developed. As for a cylindrical cell, the reflected rays in the circle would be an irregular trace without superposition and termination, if its central angle is a bit more than 2 pi/3 for an example. Each two adjacent reflected points have the same optical path difference and optical light passes through differe

There is substantial evidence that preschooler’s performance in early math is highly correlated to math performance throughout school as well as academic skills in general. One way to help children attain early math skills is by using targeted educational software and the paper discusses potential gains of using such software to support early math development. Furthermore it is argued that the con

Sustainable development represents a commitment to advancing human well-being, with the added constraint that this development needs to take place within the ecological limits of the biosphere. Progress in both these dimensions of sustainable development can be assessed: we use the UN Human Development Index (HDI) as an indicator of development and the Ecological Footprint as an indicator of human

Popular Abstract in Swedish Plasma består av fria elektroner, joner och neutrala partiklar och utgör det fjärde tillståndet av materia där de andra tre är fast-, flytande- och gasfas. Plasma är den vanligast förekommande tillståndet av materia i universum och uppskattas utgöra mer än 99% av universums totala massa. Naturligt förekommande plasma återfinner vi i blixtar, sol vinden, jonosfären och iNon-thermal plasma is regarded as a collection of free electrons, ions and neutral particles that are not at local thermodynamic equilibrium. The high-energetic electrons formed in non-thermal plasmas are capable of generating chemically active species and modifying chemical kinetics in practical applications. One promising application of non-thermal plasmas is to achieve plasma-assisted combustio
