Early evolution of the land plant circadian clock
While angiosperm clocks can be described as an intricate network of interlocked transcriptional feedback loops, clocks of green algae have been modelled as a loop of only two genes. To investigate the transition from a simple clock in algae to a complex one in angiosperms, we performed an inventory of circadian clock genes in bryophytes and charophytes. Additionally, we performed functional charac
Circulating syndecans during critical illness
Circulating syndecans are proposed to be markers of glycocalyx degradation and previous investigations have found higher plasma levels of syndecan-1 among patients with different pathological conditions. We wanted to investigate if levels of other syndecans (-2,-3 and -4) are altered during critical illness and compare the levels to syndecan-1. In 137 consecutive intensive care unit (ICU) patients
Land-use type and intensity differentially filter traits in above- and below-ground arthropod communities
Along with the global decline of species richness goes a loss of ecological traits. Associated biotic homogenization of animal communities and narrowing of trait diversity threaten ecosystem functioning and human well-being. High management intensity is regarded as an important ecological filter, eliminating species that lack suitable adaptations. Below-ground arthropods are assumed to be less sen
MXCuBE3 : A New Era of MX-Beamline Control Begins
The outstanding success of structural biology within the last two decades is closely related to the development and evolution of macromolecular crystallography (MX) beamlines. Indeed, many of today's synchrotron-based MX experimental sessions aim for fast but rigorous evaluations and data collections from very large numbers of samples [1–7]. To facilitate this, sample changing on most MX beamlines

Modeling fixed-bed drying of bark
A model for fixed-bed drying of bark has been developed. The model takes heat and mass transfer between the air and bark into account and the volumetric heat transfer coefficient was used as fitting parameter in the model. The assumption of adiabatic saturation of the air leads to too high drying rates but a model with three size fractions shows good agreement both between experimental laboratory
Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM), a core instrument to measure symptoms in clinical trials : A Harmonising Outcome Measures for Eczema (HOME) statement
Background: The Harmonising Outcome Measures for Eczema (HOME) initiative has defined four core outcome domains for a core outcome set (COS) to be measured in all atopic eczema (AE) trials to ensure cross-trial comparison: clinical signs, symptoms, quality of life and long-term control. Objectives: The aim of this paper is to report on the consensus process that was used to select the core instrum
Pressure analysis on two-step high pressure reducing system for hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle
Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) can achieve zero exhaust emission and zero pollution. In order to make FCEV reach a farther travel distance, greater demands are put on its pressure reducing system. In this paper, a two-step high pressure reducing system for FCEV is proposed. The system is made up of two parts, a new high multi-stage pressure reducing valve (HMSPRV) and a multi-stage muf

Towards a theory of regional diversification : combining insights from Evolutionary Economic Geography and Transition Studies
Towards a theory of regional diversification: combining insights from Evolutionary Economic Geography and Transition Studies. Regional Studies. This paper develops a theoretical framework of regional diversification by combining insights from Evolutionary Economic Geography and Transition Studies. It argues that a theory of regional diversification should not only build on the current understandin
An education in gender and agroecology in Brazil’s Landless Rural Workers’ Movement
This article explores the implications of a blended agroecology and gender education within Brazil’s Landless Rural Workers’ Movement (MST). The discussion is first situated within MST’s struggle for land and for peasant families’ livelihoods, generally, and under neoliberalism, specifically. Central to the struggle against neoliberalism have been critical educational models that evolved towards a
The Role of Transmural Repolarization Gradient in the Inversion of Cardiac Electric Field : Model Study of ECG in Hypothermia
BACKGROUND: The changes in ventricular repolarization gradients lead to significant alterations of the electrocardiographic body surface T waves up to the T wave inversion. However, the contribution of a specific gradient remains to be elucidated. The objective of the present investigation was to study the role of the transmural repolarization gradient in the inversion of the body surface T wave w

Extending a Multilab Preregistered Replication of the Ego-Depletion Effect to a Research Program
We reanalyze the recent multilab preregistered study on ego-depletion by Hagger and Chatzisarantis (2016) as if their data were obtained under the research program-strategy (Witte & Zenker, 2016a, 2016b). This strengthens Hagger and Chatzisarantis’s (2016) main conclusion, because our reanalysis more directly corroborates the absence of a medium-sized, or a small-sized, ego-depletion effect (d
Serological markers for human intestinal ischemia : A systematic review
Early and accurate diagnosis of intestinal ischemia is important in order to provide rapid and correct treatment and reduce morbidity and mortality rates. Clinical signs and symptoms are often unspecific. This systemic review sums up literature regarding human plasma biomarkers for acute mesenteric ischemia reported during the last ten years. Classic, general markers, including lactate, white cell
New materialism, depression and antidepressants: at the 9th European Feminist Research Conference, Sex & Capital, 3-6 June, 2015, University of Lapland, Rovaniemi, Finland : engaging in feminist dialogues about the body and biology
In this paper I will engage in a dialogue with new materialism within feminist theory. I will do this though depression and the use of the type of antidepressants named SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), often talked about under the commercial brand of Prozac, and through the work of Elizabeth Wilson. I have researched experiences of using antidepressants through in-depth interviews,
