Although various methods have been tried to study and treat cancer, the cancer remains a major challenge for human medicine today. One important reason for this is the presence of cancer evolution. Cancer evolution is a process in which tumor cells adapt to the external environment, which can suppress the human immune system's ability to recognize ...

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS), a common invasive neuromodulation technique, induces pain relief via electrical stimulation of the dorsal column of the spinal cord. To present an overview of research publications on SCS, a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications from 1998 to 2017 was performed. The relevant data were obtained from the Web o...

FHL1-related myopathies are clinically heterogeneous, involving skeletal and cardiac muscles. Overlapping clinical features include joint contractures, rigid spine, scapuloperoneal weakness and cardiac diseases. Histopathologically, reducing bodies are the most characteristic finding, but not present in all FHL1-related cases. Non-specific dystroph...
Studien har som mål att undersöka om stödord är en fungerande metod för att välja ut relevant information ur en faktatext i två klasser i årskurs 3. 31 elever deltar i studien. Eleverna väljer stödord ur en text de läser och skriver sedan en egenproducerad text med utgångspunkt i källtexten. Teoretiskt vilar studien på systemisk funktionell lingvis...

Cateura landfill located in Asunción-Paraguay is the site of final disposal of tons of garbage of all kinds coming from urban, industrial and commercial areas. Due to an inadequate waste management system, there is a big concern in our country on how it can affect people working within the landfill as waste pickers. When a high risk of exposure aff...

Vermilion flycatchers songs are composed of two acoustically different parts: a first part (FP) containing a variable number of introductory elements, and a second part (SP) composed of four elements. Previous work suggests that the FP is important for territorial competition and that it conveys information on threat level. By exposing free-living ...

Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) derivatives have been receiving remarkable attention due to their potential biomedical application and therefore understanding molecular mechanism of their interaction with cell membranes should be studied at molecular level. Here we investigate the binary mixture of an open silsesquioxane cage POSS-poly...

Numerous clinical trials have shown that sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors exert a favorable effect on the indices of renal function (albuminuria, glomerular filtration rate decline over time) and the incidence of hard renal endpoints such as renal death or time to initiation of renal replacement therapy. In this review, we describe...

The modern literature includes only limited information regarding mortality rates and cumulative survival following patella fractures. The aim was to report the 30-day, six-month, and one-year mortality of patients with patella fractures and compare this to the mortality of a matched reference population. All patients who sustained a patella fractu...
