Popular Abstract in Swedish Jordens havsnivå förändras kontinuerligt. I ett längre geologiskt tidsperspektiv styrs förändringarna av processer i jordens inre, men i ett kortare tidsperspektiv spelar yttre processer, såsom tillväxt och avsmältning av inlandsisar, stor roll för havets nivåförändringar. Det grönländska istäcket är idag norra halvklotets enda inlandsis och dess tillväxt och avsmältninNew results are presented from the investigation of relative sea-level changes in the Nanortalik and Qaqortoq-Narsarsuaq areas in SW Greenland from c. 11 000 cal. years BP to the present. Isolation and transgression sequences from seven lakes and seven tidal basins are identified using some of the traditional methods such as stratigraphic description, magnetic susceptibility, saturated induced rem

Abstract in Spanish El objeto de este estudio es el Programa Social Agropecuario (PSA) y su interacción con diferentes actores locales en la conformación de las ferias francas en la provincia de Misiones. Estos espacios de comercialización de la pequeña producción agropecuaria comenzaron a organizarse a partir de 1995 y contaron con la participación no sólo del PSA, sino también del gobierno proviThe object of study of this article is the Agriculture Social Program (PSA) and its interaction with diverse local actors in the constitution of the farmers' markets in the province of Misiones, Northeastern Argentina. These markets are social and political spaces for commercialization of small scale agriculture production. The first one emerged in 1995 thanks to the participation of a network of

The case of a neonate who presented with symptoms of upper limb ischemia related to spontaneous multiple arterial and venous thromboses that were demonstrated by colour Doppler sonography and digital subtracted angiography is reported. The presentation of limb ischaemia at birth may be the warning sign of simultaneous cerebral infarction.

CYP17 encodes cytochrome p450c17 alpha, which mediates activities essential for the production of sex steroids. Common germ line variation in the CYP17 gene has been related to inconsistent results in breast and prostate cancer, with most studies focusing on the nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) T27C (rs743572). We comprehensively characterized variation in CYP17 by direct sequenc

The presynaptically located gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter (GAT-1) was studied in a group of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and in a control group using the GAT-1 selective radioligand [3H]tiagabine. Post mortem brain tissue from frontal cortex, temporal cortex, and caudate nucleus from 18 AD patients and 23 age-matched controls were studied. The binding was saturable (Kd 26 nM

Bias caused by collecting and processing bulk samples is largely independent of what fossil clade or mineral is searched for. Instead, different methods bias the data to a different, frequently very large, degree. Furthermore, biases accumulate with each recovery step, and the sum may be extreme unless appropriate methods to minimize it are employed. The effects depend on what the data are used fo

I södra sjukvårdsregionen har ett arbete inletts för att kontinuerligt genomföra sakkunniga granskningar (sk peer review) av traumasjukvården inom regionen. I en första granskningsomgång har sex akutsjukhus deltagit. Resultaten har sammanställts i ett granskningsdokument, som gett upphov till såväl uppmärksamhet och diskussion som konkreta åtgärder på det granskade sjukhuset. Granskningsdokument

Study of anti-Thatcherist tendencies in British cinema of the 1980s.

Objective: We assessed the risk of prostate cancer by exposure to Chlamydia trachomatis. Method: Seven hundred thirty eight cases of prostate cancer and 2,271 matched controls were identified from three serum sample banks in Finland, Norway, and Sweden by linkage to the population based cancer registries. Results: A statistically significant inverse association (odds ratio, 0.69; 95% confidence in

High-spin states were populated in Sr-80 With the reaction Ni-58(Si-28,alpha 2p), using a 130 MeV Si-28 beam from the 88-Inch Cyclotron at LBNL. Gamma rays were detected with Gammasphere. and evaporated alphas and protons were detected with the Microball. The level scheme has been extended, and angular distributions of many of the transitions have been measured. A portion of the data was taken usi

Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) and other capture media are typically produced by grafting different ligands to base matrices at defined surface densities. This often complicates media production. An alternative approach to media involving in situ radical initiated polymerization was used to graft polymer coatings directly at Sepharose(D polymeric base matrices. This method appears su
