Botulinum Toxin Type A for neuropathic itch.
The tetraspanin CD63 is involved in granule targeting of neutrophil elastase.
Targeting mechanisms of neutrophil elastase (NE) and other luminal proteins stored in myeloperoxidase (MPO)-positive secretory lysosomes/primary granules of neutrophils are unknown. These granules contain an integral membrane protein, CD63 with an adaptor protein-3-dependent granule delivery system. Therefore, we hypothesized that CD63 cooperates in granule delivery of the precursor of NE (proNE).
Comparative Analysis of Different Renewable Fuels for Potential Utilization in SOFCs
Fuel cells are promising due to advantages with higher energy conversion efficiency and lower emissions of SOX, NOX and CO2 than conventional power systems. Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a high temperature fuel cell, which operates at 600-1000 ºC. The high operating temperature and the anode material allow SOFCs to operate with different types of fuels from both fossil and renewable sources due

Against War! Regional Identity Across a National Border in Late Medieval and Early Modern Scandinavia
The Chemical Composition of Some Archaeologically Significant Flint from Denmark and Sweden
Flint was the most widely employed raw material for artifact manufacture in Denmark and Sweden during the Stone Age, and it continued to be used during subsequent periods. Prehistoric flint mining and lithic manufacturing studies in these countries have attracted considerable attention, but there have been no recent attempts to chemically characterize the geologic source materials. This paper buil
Sacrococcygeal teratoma: A population-based study of incidence and prenatal prognostic factors.
Sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is a rare congenital tumor associated with high rates of perinatal mortality and morbidity. This study evaluated the incidence, prenatal detection rate, and early predictors of a complicated outcome following diagnosis of SCT.
Biglycan and Fibromodulin Have Essential Roles in Regulating Chondrogenesis and Extracellular Matrix Turnover in Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis.
The temporomandibular joint is critical for jaw movements and allows for mastication, digestion of food, and speech. Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that is marked by permanent cartilage destruction and loss of extracellular matrix (ECM). To understand how the ECM regulates mandibular condylar chondrocyte (MCC) differentiation and function, we used a genetic mouse
Alternate Visions of Judaism and Their Impact on the Formation of Rabbinic Judaism
Response-Guided Induction Therapy in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia With Excellent Remission Rate.
PURPOSE To evaluate the early treatment response in children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) using a response-guided induction strategy that includes idarubicin in the first course. PATIENTS AND METHODS All Nordic children with AML younger than 15 years (n = 151) were treated on the Nordic Society for Pediatric Hematology and Oncology (NOPHO) AML 2004 protocol. After the first course of idarubic
Planning for multilingualism and minority language rights in Sweden
As the presence of English in Europe continues to grow, there is a mounting interest in the position of national languages among European institutions, societies, and people. Swedish, like many national languages in Europe and throughout the world, is in an awkward position. It is at the same time a strong national language with the potential to dominate other languages within national borders and
Erythromelalgia: Incidence and clinical experience in a single centre in Sweden.
Background: Erythromelalgia (EM) incidence has not been well studied and there are only two studies published on this subject as far as we know. The aims are to study the incidence of this rare condition in the south of Sweden, to report the clinical experience from a single centre including characterisation of comorbidity and to report on prognosis. Patients and methods: Retrospective study of a
Adenocarcinoma corpus uteri stage I-II: results of a treatment programme based upon cytometry.
The results of a treatment method on adenocarcinoma corpus uteri stage I-II based upon cytometrically measured DNA ploidy are presented. All patients had a simple hysterectomy. Adjuvant treatment (postoperative vaginal brachytherapy) were given only to those patients with non-diploid tumours regardless of stage and grade. A total of 1,634 women with endometroid adenocarcinoma corpus uteri stage I-
Hypoxia, Snail and incomplete epithelial-mesenchymal transition in breast cancer.
Background:Hypoxia is an element of the tumour microenvironment that impacts upon numerous cellular factors linked to clinical aggressiveness in cancer. One such factor, Snail, a master regulator of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), has been implicated in key tumour biological processes such as invasion and metastasis. In this study we set out to investigate regulation of EMT in hypoxia

Tensile Strength of Surgical Knots Performed with the da Vinci Surgical Robot.
The objective of this study was to estimate the tensile strength of surgical knots made using the da Vinci robot. Four different types of flat square knots (strand-to-strand 4 throw, strand-to-strand 6 throw, loop-to-strand 4 throw, and loop-to-strand 6 throw) were made using the da Vinci-S system by 4 different surgeons, all experienced with the system. For the knots, we used braided polyglactin
Timed up & go test score in patients with hip fracture is related to the type of walking aid.
Kristensen MT, Bandholm T, Holm B, Ekdahl C, Kehlet H. Timed Up & Go test score in patients with hip fracture is related to the type of walking aid. OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationship between Timed Up & Go (TUG) test scores and type of walking aid used during the test, and to determine the feasibility of using the rollator as a standardized walking aid during the TUG in patients with
