Long-term Outcomes of Arthroscopic Acromioplasty for Chronic Shoulder Impingement Syndrome: A Prospective Cohort Study With a Minimum of 12 Years' Follow-up

Purpose: The Purpose of this Study was to evaluate long-term outcomes of arthroscopic acromioplasty for shoulder impingement syndrome. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study of 31 shoulders (24 men) that underwent arthroscopic acromioplasty for shoulder impingement syndrome during 1992 and 1993. The mean age at surgery was 49 years (range, 33 to 68 years). A group of 29 shoulders (22 men) op

High Transconductance, f(t) and f(max) in In0.63Ga0.37As FinFETs Using A Novel Fin Formation Technique

We report on In0.63Ga0.37As FinFETs utilizing nanowires grown by selective-area growth as channel. These nanowires are defined by crystallographic planes rather than pattern transfer using etching. The fabricated devices exhibit maximum transconductance g(m,max) = 2.05 mS/um at V-ds = 0.5 V, as well as record-high extrapolated f(t) = 300 GHz and f(max) = 342 GHz, on the non-planar III-V MOSFET pla

Ability of Serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein, Ubiquitin C-Terminal Hydrolase-L1, and S100B to Differentiate Normal and Abnormal Head Computed Tomography Findings in Patients with Suspected Mild or Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury.

Head Computed Tomography (CT) imaging is still a commonly obtained diagnostic test for patients with minor head injury despite availability of clinical decision rules to guide imaging use and recommendations to reduce radiation exposure resulting from unnecessary imaging. This prospective multi-center observational study of 251 patients with suspected mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Measurement of the correlation between flow harmonics of different order in lead-lead collisions at root S-NN=2.76 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Correlations between the elliptic or triangular flow coefficients v(m) (m = 2 or 3) and other flow harmonics v(n) (n = 2 to 5) are measured using root S-NN = 2.76 TeV Pb + Pb collision data collected in 2010 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7 mu b(-1). The v(m)-v(n) correlations aremeasured in midrapidity as a function of centrality, and, for events

Biocatalytic production of fatty epoxides from rapeseed and tall oil derivatives: Process and environmental evaluation

Rapeseed and tall oil are important renewable feedstocks for chemicals and energy — the former, an agricultural crop, and the latter, is a by-product of the pulp and paper industry. This report presents a study on the production of fatty epoxides from rapeseed methyl ester, tall oil methyl ester, and tall oil fatty acids by a solvent-free lipase-mediated process. Fatty epoxides are useful reactive

Joint Pose and Radio Channel Estimation

This thesis investigates the combination of pose and radio channel estimation. Pose is the knowledge of the position and orientation of a device whereas the radio channel describes the transmission medium between radio transmitters and receivers. The two subjects are both active research topics with a long history of applications but there has to the author's knowledge been very little work publis

Weighted interpolation in Paley-Wiener spaces and finite-time controllability

This paper considers the solution of weighted interpolation problems in model subspaces of the Hardy space H-2 that are canonically isometric to Paley-Wiener spaces of analytic functions A new necessary and sufficient condition is given on the set of interpolation points which guarantees that a solution in H-2 can be transferred to a solution in a model space. The techniques used rely on the repro

The impact of signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) on the recruitment of salmonid fish in a headwater stream in Yorkshire, England

Signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) have become increasingly widespread in rivers in Great Britain since their introduction in the late 1970s, causing extensive losses of indigenous white-clawed crayfish and negative impacts on communities of aquatic plants, invertebrates and benthic fish. Angling interests are increasingly concerned about possible impacts of signal crayfish on brown trout,

Julkrubban i Svenska kyrkan : Julkrubbans reception i Stockholm, Göteborgs och Lunds stifts gudstjänstrum fram till 1900-talets slut

The basis for this thesis is mainly gathered from Lund University’s Archives of Ecclesiastical History, LUKA. Questionnaires called ”kyrklig sed” are frequently emitted to all Swedish parishes to document different customs within the church. Since 1962 they also contain questions about cribs in the churches. Beside these questionnaires, there are also special questionnaires of different extent. LU

Relationships among Energy Price Shocks, Stock Market, and the Macroeconomy: Evidence from China

This paper investigates the interactive relationships among China energy price shocks, stock market, and themacroeconomy using multivariate vector autoregression.The results indicate that there is a long cointegration among them. A 1% rise in the energy price index can depress the stock market index by 0.54% and the industrial value-adding growth by 0.037%. Energy price shocks also cause inflation

The Cotton-Top Tamarin (Saguinus oedipus) Has Five beta-Microseminoprotein Genes, Two of Which Are Pseudogenes

beta-Microseminoprotein (MSP) is one of the most abundant proteins in human seminal plasma and is secreted from the prostate gland. Its evolution can be traced from primates down to nonvertebrate species such as amphioxus, despite substantial differences in the primary structure. Most mammals are known to have one single MSP gene, but we have previously shown that the cotton-top tamarin and the co

Plant species richness in a natural Argentinian matorral shrub-land correlates negatively with levels of plant phosphorus

The aim of this study was to ascertain whether there is a relationship between plant species richness and plant-available N, P and water in an environment subject to little anthropogenic disturbance. To accomplish this we studied the vegetation in matorral shrub-lands in northern Patagonia, Argentina. Due to the variation in slope, precipitation and aspect between the sites water status was determ

Changes in human placental oxygenation during maternal hyperoxia estimated by blood oxygen level-dependent magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD MRI)

Objectives To investigate changes in human placental oxygenation during maternal hyperoxia using non-invasive blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods Eight healthy pregnant women with uncomplicated singleton pregnancies at gestational weeks 28-36 were examined with BOLD MRI, over two consecutive 5-min periods of different oxygenation: first normoxia (21% O-2)
