Differential growth is an emergent property of mechanochemical feedback mechanisms in curved plant organs

Differential growth is central to eukaryotic morphogenesis. We showed using cellular imaging, simulations, and perturbations that light-induced differential growth in a curved organ, the Arabidopsis thaliana apical hook, emerges from the longitudinal expansion of subepidermal cells, acting in parallel with a differential in the material properties of epidermal cell walls that resist expansion. The

Trajectory Analysis of the Four-Year Changes in Body Composition and Bone Mineral Characteristics Among Highly Competitive Male University Long-Distance Runners

Objectives: This study examined long-term changes in body composition and bone mineral characteristics among male long-distance runners from a high-profile university team, focusing on concerns about impaired musculoskeletal development due to extreme leanness and weight management practices in this population. Methods: Trajectory analyses were performed using multilevel modeling of 608 dual-energ

Revision rates of one new and two established hemiarthroplasty heads : a comparative cohort study from the Swedish Arthroplasty Register

Introduction: The anatomical Lubinus SPII-stem is commonly used in hemi-arthroplasty for femoral neck fractures (FNF), combined with either the bipolar Variocup, the Unipolar Head (UH) and a newly introduced unipolar Modular Trauma Head (MTH). Similar constructs like the MTH are reported to have risk of corrosion and wear. This is the first publication evaluating the MTH. Aim: To describe the revi

Ex vivo evaluation of the whole heart function allowing selective investigation of the right and left heart

Objectives. The aim was to demonstrate a reliable ex vivo method to test the function of the whole heart. Design. Pigs of varying sizes (44–80 kg) were exposed to dose response of adrenaline. Blood pressures and cardiac output were measured. The explanted hearts were tested in a novel ex vivo system to see if we could replicate the in vivo values at maximal adrenaline stimulation. The perfusion so

Despite good intentions : The elusiveness of social justice in health and physical education curricula across different contexts

This paper draws on critical discourse analysis to examine how health and physical education (HPE) curricula from Sweden, Norway, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand may influence possibilities for the enactment of social justice in schools. The findings highlight the presence of social justice intentions across the five curricula as related to embodied movement experiences, social cohesion,

Enzymoblotting : Visualization of electrophoretically separated enzymes on nitrocellulose membranes using specific substrates

Enzymoblotting is a technique for the detection of electrophoretically separated enzymes after transfer to nitrocellulose (NC) membranes and subsequent incubation with suitable substrates. After agarose gel electrophoresis or isoelectric focusing in ultrathin polyacrylamide gels, blotting of the separated proteins/enzymes to NC membranes was performed by capillary forces for 30 min. Hydrolases, e.

South Korean doctors’ strike is a medical drama with no heroes

More than 12,000 South Korean doctors have gone on strike in a months-long protest against medical reforms. It may be the wrong position to take, but the government has much to account for too, say Erik Mobrand from Seoul National University and Hyejin Kim from National University of Singapore.

2L1 Simultaneous Bilinguals as Heritage Speakers

The chapter is concerned with simultaneous bilinguals (2L1s) assuming that they are a subtype of the heritage speaker (HS). The chapter summarizes major findings with regard to their morpho-syntactic and phonological characteristics, starting with the two competing views on bilingual language development that postulated fused language systems as opposed to autonomous development several decades ag

Testing the effects of frequency on the rate of learning : Determiner use in early French, German and Italian

This paper examines whether the token frequency of bare nouns in child-directed input is related to the amount of determiner omission in child lan-guage by comparing input and child data in the languages French, Germanand Italian. It is shown that these languages differ in the extent to whichthey allow and require bare nouns. Although French exhibits the lowestnumber of bare nouns, French-learning

Abstract in DanishKirkemødet i Nikæa i 325 er intet mindre end den mest betydningsfulde enkeltstående kirkelige begivenhed i hele den kristne historie. Det var nemlig her, en række biskopper mødtes for sammen at trække hovedlinjerne i den kristne tro op. Et fundament, som stadigvæk står, og som i 2025 fejrer sit 1700-års jubilæum verden over.På trods af kirkemødets afgørende betydning er teksterne

Outline of a Serbian Orthodox Doctrine of Righteous War

The post-communist period has seen several wars in regions with a majority of Eastern Orthodox Christians. These conflicts have prompted Eastern Orthodox churches to formulate stances on war and develop new doctrines of righteous war. These responses draw on a long lineage of Eastern Roman and Slavonic traditions, particularly the Cyrillian doctrine of righteous war expounded in the Life of Consta
