Origin of the Two Bands in the B800 Ring and Their Involvement in the Energy Transfer Network of Allochromatium vinosum
Bacterial photosynthesis features robust and adaptable energy-harvesting processes in which light-harvesting proteins play a crucial role. The peripheral light-harvesting complex of the purple bacterium Allochromatium vinosum is particularly distinct, featuring a double peak structure in its B800 absorption band. Two hypotheses - not necessarily mutually exclusive - concerning the origin of this s
Band structure evolution and the origin of magnetism in (Ga,Mn)As : From paramagnetic through superparamagnetic to ferromagnetic phase
The high-spectral-resolution optical studies of the energy gap evolution, supplemented with electronic, magnetic, and structural characterization, show that the modification of the GaAs valence band caused by Mn incorporation occurs already for a very low Mn content, much lower than that required to support ferromagnetic spin-spin coupling in (Ga,Mn)As. Only for n-type (Ga,Mn)As with the Mn conten
Fission dynamics with microscopic level densities
Working within the Langevin framework of nuclear shape dynamics, we study the dependence of the evolution on the degree of excitation. As the excitation energy of the fissioning system is increased, the pairing correlations and the shell effects diminish and the effective potential-energy surface becomes ever more liquid-drop like. This feature can be included in the treatment in a formally well-f

An Intervention-Based Study of How MRI Is Perceived by Patients With Spinal Metastasis After Adjustments to the Examination Procedures
The aim was to explore magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) experiences of patients with spinal metastasis after adjustments to the examination procedures have been made in accordance with the findings from a previous study. MRI is an important medical technology, which is considered to be the first choice of examination method when diagnosing and evaluating spinal metastatic tumors. It is a challenge
Antikvarisk rapport gällande undersökningen av biskop Peder Winstrups kista och mumifierade kvarlevor
Bakgrund till projektet kring Winstrups mumie tog sin början i och med det beslut som fattades av Länsstyrelsen 2012-03-21 (Dnr 433-1675-12) som svar på en ansökan av Lunds domkyrkoförsamling om flytt av Peder Winstrups kista till Domkyrkomuseet i Lund. I denna rapport redovisas, förutom bakgrunden och resultatet, följande bilagor:Bilaga 1: Vetenskapliga undersökningar av Peder Winstrups mumie av
D-Meson Azimuthal Anisotropy in Midcentral Pb-Pb Collisions at s NN=5.02 TeV
The azimuthal anisotropy coefficient v2 of prompt D0, D+, D∗+, and Ds+ mesons was measured in midcentral (30%-50% centrality class) Pb-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN=5.02 TeV, with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The D mesons were reconstructed via their hadronic decays at midrapidity, |y|
Inflammatory bowel disease registries for collection of patient iron parameters in Europe
Iron deficiency without anemia and iron deficiency anemia are common and frequently overlooked complications of inflammatory bowel disease. Despite the frequency and impact of iron deficiency in inflammatory bowel disease, there are gaps in our understanding about its incidence, prevalence and natural history and, consequently, patients may be undertreated. Medical registries have a key role in co
Dizziness in Europe : from licensed fitness to drive to licence without fitness to drive
A common European Community driving licence was established in 1980. However, there are major differences among the countries as regards medical conditions that legally affect driving ability. This article discusses various assessment guidelines for dizzy patients. These range from a total absence of specified binding requirements in Finland or regulations open to clinical interpretation in Switze
Three-Dimensional Structure of the Apo Form of the N-Terminal EGF-like Module of Blood Coagulation Factor X As Determined by NMR Spectroscopy and Simulated Folding
The three-dimensional structure of a 42-residue fragment containing the N-terminal EGF-like module of blood coagulation factor X was determined by means of 2D NMR spectroscopy and computer simulation. The spectroscopic data consisted of 370 NOE distances and 27 dihedral angle constraints. These were used to generate peptide conformations by molecular dynamics simulation. The simulations used a nov
Glioma imaging in Europe : A survey of 220 centres and recommendations for best clinical practice
Objectives: At a European Society of Neuroradiology (ESNR) Annual Meeting 2015 workshop, commonalities in practice, current controversies and technical hurdles in glioma MRI were discussed. We aimed to formulate guidance on MRI of glioma and determine its feasibility, by seeking information on glioma imaging practices from the European Neuroradiology community. Methods: Invitations to a structured
How an epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domain binds calcium. High resolution NMR structure of the calcium form of the NH2-terminal EGF-like domain in coagulation factor X
Domains homologous to the epidermal growth factor (EGF) are important building blocks for extracellular proteins. Proteins containing these domains have been shown to function in such diverse biological processes as blood coagulation, complement activation, and the developmental determination of embryonic cell fates. Many of these proteins require calcium for their biological function. In the case
Predictive factors for sentinel node metastases in primary invasive breast cancer : A population-based cohort study of 2552 consecutive patients
Background: Axillary lymph node status is one of the most important prognostic factors for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to determine predictive factors for metastasis to sentinel node (SN) in primary invasive breast cancer. Method: This is a study of 3979 patients with primary breast cancer during 2008-2013 in Malmö and Lund scheduled for surgery and included in the information retriev
The Solution Structures of Mutant Calbindin D9k's, As Determined by NMR, Show That the Calcium-Binding Site Can Adopt Different Folds
The complete 1H NMR assignments have been obtained for five mutant proteins of calbindin D9k and the three-dimensional solution structures determined for two of the mutants. The structures have been determined using distance geometry and simulated annealing, with distance constraints from NMR. All mutants have modifications in the first calcium-binding site of calbindin (the N-terminal site design
A simplified amino acid potential for use in structure predictions of proteins
A simplified description and a corresponding force field for polypeptides is introduced. Each amino acid residue is reduced to one interaction site, representing the backbone, and one or two side chain sites depending on its size and complexity. Site–site interactions are parameterized after a hydrophobicity criterium. The treatment of backbone sites is in addition designed to reproduce typical po
Dynamic fetal cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging using Doppler ultrasound gating
Background: Fetal cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging may provide a valuable adjunct to fetal echocardiography in the evaluation of congenital cardiovascular pathologies. However, dynamic fetal CMR is difficult due to the lack of direct in-utero cardiac gating. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a newly developed Doppler ultrasound (DUS) device in humans for
Outcomes After Distal Pancreatectomy with Celiac Axis Resection for Pancreatic Cancer : A Pan-European Retrospective Cohort Study
Background: Western multicenter studies on distal pancreatectomy with celiac axis resection (DP-CAR), also known as the Appleby procedure, for locally advanced pancreatic cancer are lacking. We aimed to study overall survival, morbidity, mortality and the impact of preoperative hepatic artery embolization (PHAE). Methods: Retrospective cohort study within the European-African Hepato-Pancreato-Bili
Monte Carlo simulations of a single polyelectrolyte in solution : Activity coefficients of the simple ions and application to viscosity measurements
Monte Carlo simulations of linear polyelectrolytes together with explicit ions have been performed in a spherical cell model to study conformational changes and activity coefficients in relation to the isoionic dilution method used in viscosity measurements. The results show that it is possible to define an effective ionic strength that will keep the average chain conformation constant on isoionic
