A 20-year-old female was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC) at age 14 and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) at age 16. The PSC was successfully treated with high doses of oral vancomycin; however, the UC was more difficult to manage. After many drug treatments failed to treat the UC, the patient began following the specific carbohydrate diet...
Neuronal and vascular systems require a complex network to properly perform their functions. The processes involved in creating this network rely on coordinated pathways, often activated through common protein/receptor systems, which lead to cytoskeletal remodelling. In general, neuronal and vascular cells respond to extracellular stimuli in the fo...
In the animal kingdom, competition and hierarchical arrangements relative to members of the same sex are extremely common, with males competing for the top “alpha male” position and females ranked below them. Despite the widespread occurrence of hierarchical self-organization among animals and humans, ethno+musicologists often shy away from phyloge...
Sammanfattning I denna studie jämförs en förskola med inriktning mot Friluftsfrämjandets verksamhet I ur och skur mot en förskola utan specifik inriktning. De forskningsfrågor jag har utgått ifrån berör hur pedagogerna arbetar med natur och miljö, hur de ser på naturen som en plats för lärande och vad barnen vet om skogens kretslopp. Dessa frågor u...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the preschool teachers knowledge and interest in biology and how they teach the subject. To answer my questions in this study, I used the survey questionnaire. A total of 88 preschool teachers responded to the survey. They answered questions about their own views regarding biology and how they teach the t...
Frequently in evolutionary biology we are interested in how different quan- titative traits of an organism evolve together over time. In order to properly understand these relationships, we need to adjust for the shared evolutionary history of these organisms. Previous methods rely on modeling quantitative traits as undergoing a high dimensional, c...
This dissertation, by Yiren Hu, discusses how enhancer activity is regulated to drive rapid, coordinated transcriptional response to signals like estrogen and inflammatory stimuli. Enhancer elements play a central role in instructing precise spatiotemporal gene expression and are capable of activating target gene transcription from a long distance....
The aim of this paper is to present the first study on spatial and temporal variation in the enantiomeric profile of chiral drugs in eight European cities. Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) and enantioselective analysis were combined to evaluate trends in illicit drug use in the context of their consumption vs direct disposal as well as their syn...
Depuis 2011, les tribunaux coutumiers en Nouvelle‑Calédonie imposent en droit une définition de la paternité kanak exclusivement fondée sur la « coutume ». Cet article déconstruit les présupposés culturalistes qui justifient, aux yeux des juges et contre les justiciables kanak, la disqualification de toute conception biologique de la paternité. Il ...
