Objective To assess the occurrence of ST-interval segment changes of the fetal electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiotocographic (CTG) abnormalities preceding acidaemia at birth. Design Case-control study. Setting University hospital labour ward. Sample Newborns with severe cord artery metabolic acidaemia (pH < 7.00 and lactate >/= 10 mmol/l; n= 24), moderate metabolic acidaemia (pH 7.00-7.09 and lact

This paper examines the role of mahalla as a “hybrid” institution in the process of revamping public administration in post-Soviet Uzbekistan. It argues that the mahalla system, which is anchored on Islamic principles, has now become an institutionalized feature of Uzbekistan’s public administration (through legislative codification and executive incorporation) and now operates partly on behalf of

PRELP is a member of the leucine-rich repeat family of extracellular matrix proteins in connective tissue. In contrast to other members of the family, the amino-terminal domain of PRELP has a high content of proline and positively charged amino acids. This domain has previously been shown to bind chondrocytes and to inhibit osteoclast differentiation. Here we show that PRELP mediates cell adhesion

Migraine is considered a neurovascular disease affecting more than 10% of the general population. Currently available drugs for the acute treatment of migraine are vasoconstrictors, which have limitations in their therapeutic use. The calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has a key role in migraine, where levels of CGRP are increased during acute migraine attacks. CGRP is expressed throughout the

Several antibacterial proteins and peptides of the human innate immune system have additional roles in the regulation of adaptive immune responses. Among peptides with innate and adaptive immune functions are chemokines, a family of structurally related peptides with conserved amino-terminal motifs. Chemokines regulate leukocyte trafficking during both health and disease. In recent years, some che

Objective. Patients with RA have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Management of RA has changed substantially over time. Our aim was to evaluate changes in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality over the period of 1978-2002. Methods. Two cohorts of consecutive patients with RA seen at outpatient clinics in Malmö, Sweden, were started in 1978 (n = 148) and 1995 (n = 161) and compared wit

OBJECTIVE: To investigate a marker of tumor proliferation, Ki-67, and telomerase expression in glioblastoma multiforme and to compare the results of different mainly quantitative assessments, in relation to age and survival rates. METHODS: Immunohistochemical stainings of Ki-67 and hTERT were evaluated in 39 formaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded surgical samples of glioblastoma multiforme diagnose
