Ascorbate (Asc) reductions of the oral anticancer platinum(IV) prodrugs cis,trans,cis-[PtCl2(OAc)2(cha)(NH3)] (JM216) and cis,trans,cis-[PtCl2(OCOC3H7)2(cha)(NH3)] (JM221) and of the isomers of JM216, viz.trans,cis,cis-[PtCl2(OAc)2(cha)(NH3)] (JM394) and trans,trans,trans-[PtCl2(OAc)2(cha)(NH3)] (JM576) (OAc = acetate, cha = cyclohexylamine) have been investigated in a 1.0 M aqueous perchlorate m
Reduction of the anticancer trans platinum(IV) prodrug JM335 by thiols in a moderately alkaline aqueous perchlorate medium is quite rapid and yields trans-[Pt(OH)2(c-C6H11NH2)(NH3)] as the reaction product. The mechanism of reduction involves reductive attack by thiol or thiolate on one of the mutually trans chloride ligands, leading to the formation of a chloride-bridged activated complex.The red
SynopsisOn the basis of kinetic studies of the manganese-catalyzed autoxidation of sulfite and thermodynamic data for iron−manganese redox processes and manganese(II) and -(III) protolysis equilibria, the catalytically active species in the autoxidation is concluded to be a mixed-valence oxo-bridged manganese(II,III) complex. Iron−manganese synergism and triggering of the chain reaction by small c
The borehole thermal resistance – that is, the thermal resistance between the fluid in the U-tube and the borehole wall – is both a key performance characteristic of a closed-loop borehole ground heat exchanger and an important design parameter. Lower borehole thermal resistance leads to better system performance and/or lower total borehole length and possibly lower installation costs. Borehole th
PurposeThe paper aims to provide a conceptual map of how to mediate between sustainability theory and practice in higher education and how disciplinary divides can be bridged. It further looks at issues linked to knowledge views and drivers for institutional change that affect opportunities for whole institution development promoting action preparedness.Design/methodology/approachTaking its point

An automated ECG-based method may provide diagnostic support in the management of patients with acute coronary syndrome. The Olson method has previously proved to accurately identify the culprit artery in patients with acute coronary occlusion. Methods The Olson method was applied to 360 patients without acute myocardial ischemia and 52 patients with acute coronary occlusion. Results This study es
Background Recently, total hip arthroplasty (THA) has come to focus on restoration of individual anatomy including femoral neck anteversion and global offset (femoral and acetabular offset). Three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) data could provide a better basis for preoperative templating. The use of CT has been hampered by high radiation dose. Purpose To evaluate the effective dose us

We investigate the adaption of the recently developed exponential integrators called EPIRK in the so-called domain-based implicit-explicit (IMEX) setting of spatially discretized PDE's. The EPIRK schemes were shown to be efficient for sufficiently stiff problems and offer high precision and good stability properties like A- and L-stability in theory. In practice, however, we can show that these st
Smart, or responsive polymers can reversibly change their state of aggregation, thus switching from water-soluble to insoluble state, in response to minor changes in temperature, pH or solvent composition. Grafting of these polymers to solid surfaces imparts the surfaces with controllable wettability and adsorption behaviour. The review summarizes the theoretical models and the results of physical
The aim was to perform a local study of risk factors and thrombophilia in mesenteric venous thrombosis (MVT), and to review the literature concerning thrombophilia testing in MVT. Patients hospitalized for surgical or medical treatment of MVT at our center 2000-2015. A systematic review of observational studies was performed. In the local study, the most frequently identified risk factor was Facto
Radical cystectomy with neoadjuvant chemotherapy is the gold standard for treating muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Women subjected to radical cystectomy are frequently postmenopausal, and the median age for bladder cancer diagnosis in women in Sweden is currently 73 yr (Swedish National Bladder Cancer Register). Traditionally, most women treated with radical cystectomy have undergone simultaneous
Affinity-based solid-phase extraction (SPE) is an attractive low-cost sample preparation strategy for biomarker analysis. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as affinity sorbents offer unique opportunities for affinity SPE, due to their low manufacturing cost and high robustness. A limitation is the prediction of their affinity; therefore, screening of analyte recovery and specificity within a l
In the paper we introduce an optimization framework for traffic restoration in optical wireless networks. As such networks experience multiple partial link failures, we introduce a generic extension of restoration strategies developed for wired networks (that assume total link failures) which enables handling partial link failures as well. The particular traffic restoration strategy studied in the
This chapter sketches some of the societal dynamics that Gezi protests have expressed and the ways in which they constitute a significant departure from both the conceptualization and practice of politics in contemporary Turkey, through an interrogation of the politics of space that has occupied center stage in the protests.
